I have been lucky enough to test out Method’s new odor-eliminating kitchen handwash. These are available exclusively to to Method’s online store – you can find them here – www.methodhome.com.au.

When I cut up the likes of onion and garlic and seafood I am left of the memory of my cooking well into the night (not something I enjoyed). Now Method have come to the rescue with these great fragrances that are strong enough to knock out those nasty smells. I tell you there is nothing fishy about this handwash – haha couldn’t help myself with the ‘fishy’ line.
A small amount a size smaller than a 5 cent piece will do the trick. You get a great lather and on top of that a lovely fragrance of either LEMONGRASS – CITRONNELLE or CLEMENTINE – which is orange.
You can’t but help yourself to smelling your hands after you use it. Your hands are left feeling soft, ‘clean’ and fresh.
Soaps aggravate my hands but I haven’t had any problems since use this handwash which is an absolute bonus.
At $7.99 for a 532ml bottle it is great value. I have been using it for 2 weeks and only used about 2 centimetres, and that’s measuring from the narrow top section.
I also love Methods philosophy of ” it says that it’s ok to use high-tech materials, products, and gadgets that make our lives better, we just need to design products so those materials can be infinitely reused. at method, we call that reincarnation. we want every product to have a past and a future. like bottles made from old bottles, and non-toxic cleaners that biodegrade instead of toxic chemicals that don’t.”
