Eh..

Not the best. Smell is marginal. Quality is bad, barely removes dirt. However I believe It’s much better for the planet than other products are..

Smells great, but really harsh on skin.

I am a 'for life' subscriber to all of the eco store product ranges, love them! But I am not a fan of the hand wash range.

Packaging is great, smell is divine, but the formulation leaves my hands feeling so dry... Sometimes with this product range they get so dry that their itchy. I have never had issue with dermatitis until I used this range and I brought several different scents, foaming and regular just to try and find one that suited. Unfortunately in the end we just changed to a whole new brand because all of them were to harsh on our skin. Super sad about it.

Love the orange patchouli

A great handwash for everyday use, nice and gentle not the cheapest but it is enviro-friendly so worth the little bit extra. The orange patchouli scent is amazing!

Lovely soft foam for hands

I have tried the grapefruit and mint version and found it to be a quality handwash, a nice thick foam that lathers well. Hands are left clean soft and sweetly scented. A great product, made in NZ from gentle ingredients. The pump bottle is sturdy and seems like it should last several refills. It is not exactly a thing of beauty and I am unsure whether a different pump bottle would dispense the liquid in foam form as it ought to, but this is a very small complaint for an otherwise great product.

Ecostore Handwash

I bought this because my Son gets excema on his hands & I have very dry skin on my hands, also dermatitis in the Winter. It does a good job, non-irritating with a lovely fragrance , I tried the orange one.

Tips: Use only a little, thats all you need.

Foaming Fab!

I was lucky enough to win an Ecostore pack and the Foaming Handwash in Grapefruit & Mint.

Oh. My. Gosh. My favourite part of this handwash is how amazing it smells!! So vibrant and fresh and I just want to eat it.

I like the simplicity of the pack and it actually looks really nice in my kitchen. The nozzle dispenser is always good too, keeps things nice and clean without any of that gunky residue that a bar of soap leaves.

Two things surprised me with this product. The first was that it pumps out foamy! I assumed it would be a liquid which would get all foamy as I washed my hands. Nope. Foamy as. Which I quite like, although it feels a bit like I'm cheating the hand wash process. The second thing that surprised me was that it actually does leave my skin feeling nice and soft. The only downside I find from this is that it doesn't always cut through the meaty-fatty grease that's so often left on my hands after giving the oven a wipe down post-meat cooking. So it's great as a pre-touching food wash, but it doesn't really do the job for heavy-duty messy hands.

In saying that, I'll definitely re-purchase, but I'll use it for post-bathroom activities rather than for post-cooking/wiping/cleaning cleansing.

Tips: Don't be surprised when you initially pump and it spurts out all over the place - actually, cup your hand over the nozzle, then you won't have to deal with the spurty mess.

Not so foamy but fine

I bought some of this from (I think it was Countdown) in the 250ml pump, as I have recently become something of a fan of handwashes.

I had the usual difficulty getting it to pump the first time and popped the dispenser right off by accident! Anyway, it recovered and worked fine afterwards.

The product is a cream but doesn't foam as much as some others (maybe that could be because of my dispenser incident, thinking about it!). That's fine though, it works very well, leaving my hands feeling clean without drying them out.

It has a subtle critusy scent which I like very much.

I have been trying several Ecostore products, and I'm very happy when I know I'm using a product that has less of an impact on the environment. This product, and the whole brand, are economical as well - double bonus! and many are carried by The Warehouse, so easy to find and purchase.

Yes, I recommend trying it.

Nice natural smells

I really love the foaming action of these. I really love the grapefruit. Can't get enough of it. I think because it is foaming you don't put way too much on your skin. I find that some of the liquid hand soaps can really irritate and dry the skin out. I'm not finding that with these. I like that there is also the opportunity to refill these at some of their stations... Well I hope there is!
