The last time I shared anything about Fairy dishwashing liquid it was about the catchy “one drop” song. The first time I knew about fairy was when I was in obodo oyibo-for some reason it was my dishwashing liquid of choice especially because it came in different varieties, had a nice fragrance and the packaging was cute. Fairy IS the number one dish-cleaning brand in the world and has been a trusted household name.
Oya fastforward to how many years later, now. Fairy launched in Nigeria and the first thing I asked is “is it the same fairy”? The contents of the bottle nko, will it be the same as the one I was used to in the UK? They said yes. However they have just two varieties, the green (Original) and yellow (Lemon) one.
To me, I have a couple of reasons that determine whether or not this Fairy is good enough. I checked if:
Does it perform best: Yes it does, hence the line “one drop”. Just one drop is effective enough to wash a number of plates. I love the suds- to me if a soap doesn’t produce enough suds then it is not working. If you buy a bottle of Fairy I will advice you to get an empty bottle and pour half in it, then dilute the other with water.
Is it the best value for money: I went to Shoprite the other day and I saw that one bottle retails for N369.99 pere. That’s a fair price considering the worth of what you’re getting and in comparison to other products.
And importantly , is it gentle on hands and nails? I love to keep my nails long, and sometimes my friends ask if I do any washing at all as per somebody wey dey wash plate often will not be able to keep their nails. But I do. Fairy is mild on the skin and nails.
An extra reason I really like Fairy is that I can see how gradually the content is reducing because of the transparent bottle. LOL. I would say Fairy is good enough, even better. It performs well and it is great value for money but it will not wash away your sins.
You know I love to do giveaways when I like a brand-so one of you gets to win a pack of Fairy Dishwashing Liquid from me! Growing up every kid wants to wash the plates but as we grow older it becomes chore that people skip, so for this giveaway I’m asking, who should really wash the plates when we all finish eating? You don’t have to do much-just leave your email address and answer the question: who should wash the plates after eating? Mummy? Daddy? Last born? First born? As led by the spirit? Everybody OYO? Who?
