Fix Price's Dish Soap Falls Flat - Awful Scent and Weak Stain Removal

Hello there!

I recently stumbled upon this massive bottle of dish soap at Fix-Price store, and it turns out it's not a new product, just recently arrived at our store. Today, I'm reviewing Parli Cosmetics' SOYE berries 'Cherry' dish soap.

Key details:

Where I bought it: Fix-PricePrice: 119 rubles;Volume: 1 liter;Shelf life: 24 months;Manufactured by: OOO 'Parli', Russia, Republic of Tatarstan, Kazan.

Packaging

The dish soap comes in a high-quality plastic bottle of white color.

The plastic is dense, not transparent. The bottle has a unique, elongated cubical shape. The base is sturdy and square-shaped.

All the information about the soap is displayed on the front of the information sticker. It features an appetizing cherry image along with the details.

The composition is as follows:Composition: water, 5% or more, but less than 15% anionic surfactants, less than 5% amphoteric surfactants, less than 5% nonionic surfactants, pH regulator, fragrant additive, sodium chloride, preservative.

The shelf life of the soap is 2 years, and it's manufactured in Russia, in the beautiful city of Kazan.

Given the large bottle size, it has a built-in black dispenser. The dispenser has a rotating mechanism with an indicator pointer.

The dispenser is a pump type with a small opening, and it dispenses the soap well.

Description

I was surprised by how runny this dish soap gel is compared to other brands.

When I applied it to a sponge, the gel absorbed quickly.

When I got it wet, the soap created a lot of suds. The scent is pleasant, like strawberry, but it's not a natural smell.

Use and impression

This gel soap works okay with everyday dishes, but there are better options out there. Despite the good suds, I still had to re-wash my utensils because they felt greasy afterwards. Let's see how it handles tougher messes.

To get the best results, I soaked the dish in water first and then applied the soap. I applied the gel to a sponge, got it wet, and then scrubbed the dish.

To my surprise, the greasy stains started coming off.

But it still took some elbow grease to get the job done. Unfortunately, it didn't work the first time around.

After some elbow grease, the dish looked brand new again - clean, shiny, and ready for its next culinary adventure.

To be honest, the gel cleaner did remove the grease, but it took some serious scrubbing to get the job done. I had to rinse the dishes multiple times, and even then, it wasn't a total success. The first go-around, the gel just didn't cut it, despite its impressive foaming action. It's not the most cost-effective option, either - I've already used up half the bottle in just a week. Cleaning a single pot or pan to perfection on the first try is basically impossible with this stuff.On the bright side, the cleaner does a great job of removing residue and stains from the dishes. I've noticed, however, that it leaves my hands feeling a bit dry and tight after washing. So, I make sure to slather on some hand cream afterwards.

Parli Cosmetics' SOYE series gel cleaner in Cherry just didn't impress me. There are far better options out there. In the end, I'd give it three stars out of five.

I wouldn't recommend it!
