HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT DISHWASHING LIQUID?

COMMENT BIEN CHOISIR SON LIQUIDE VAISSELLE ?

Our tips for finding a high-performance dishwashing liquid that's healthy for your skin and environmentally friendly

Faced with shelves overloaded with dishwashing liquids, it's easy to get lost between the labels "ultra-degreasing", "eco", "sensitive skin"... So, how do you make the right choice? Here are our tips to help you find your way:

Deciphering the ingredients

The first thing to do: read the label. But be careful, the list is often long and technical. Here are the essentials to remember:

  • Surfactants : they remove grease.

    • Anionic : very degreasing.

    • Non-ionic : degreasers, foamers, disinfectants.

    • Amphoteric : emulsifiers and thickeners.

We recommend that you choose a natural dishwashing liquid with surfactants, which ensures good effectiveness and biodegradability.

Avoid flashy dyes (pink, bright green, fluorescent yellow) which are often allergenic or irritating, or even carcinogenic. A clear or slightly tinted liquid will be just as effective. The same goes for preservatives . Some, such as MIT, MCIT or BIT, are very common but highly allergenic. Choose formulas without preservatives .

Protect sensitive skin

If you're washing dishes without gloves, your dish soap should be gentle on your skin. Avoid products that contain preservatives known to be harmful to your skin and the environment. Look for formulas with aloe vera or vegetable glycerin. These active ingredients protect the skin from drying out and irritation.

Tip: The “ tested for sensitive skin ” label ensures that the product has been specifically validated for skin prone to eczema or allergic reactions, unlike the “dermatologically tested” label.

The Pikoc choice: efficiency, naturalness and pleasure

For us, the ideal companion for our dishwashing sessions is a dishwashing liquid that is degreasing, ecological and gentle on sensitive skin.

At Pikoc, we have formulated an ultra-degreasing dishwashing liquid , 100% natural and suitable for sensitive skin. It contains natural surfactants and German vera, without coloring or preservatives.

And to combine business with pleasure, we have produced it in 3 100% natural fragrances: Rose Musk , Neroli Tea and Eucalyptus Wood .


The Pikoc ecological tip:

To wash your dishes properly, use two sinks: one with warm, soapy water for washing, the other with cold water for rinsing. This reduces hot water consumption. If your dishes are very greasy, let them soak for a few minutes before scrubbing.

DON'T: Never use regular dishwashing liquid in a dishwasher! You risk turning your kitchen into a foam party...
