I had the opportunity to try Bubble Man Dish washing liquid over the last two weeks. I looked forward to it because the leading brand has become too harsh that it caused an allergic reaction on my hands. According to a friend doctor, the medication I’m putting on it will not be effective if I will keep using the same dish washing brand.

I’ve been trying to look for something to replace it and the ones I find most effective are the eco-friendly ones which are usually not that easy on the pocket. That’s why I’m glad that I got to try Bubble Man because Bubble Man is both eco-friendly AND affordable, at only Php 32.50 for the regular sized bottle and Php 120 for its 880  ml bottle.

It’s not that I’m too cheap to invest on eco-friendly goods because I’m not, but dish washing liquid is something you use everyday. It’s not that easy to shell out so much money for something that will quickly run out. It is only practical to go for an alternative buy if it’s just as good, safe and effective as the costly one, you know what I mean?

Anyway, we tried it and so far, my fingers have not been reacting badly to it. It actually got me excited to washing dishes often because I know that I won’t get painful cuts after washing as I did with the leading brand.

I also like how it smells…sort of citrus-y. I received three bottles – The blue one which is the anti-bacterial one, then the green one which is the Calamansi one, and the yellow one or Lemon. I gave the Lemon to my friend downstairs and she says that she directly put the dish washing liquid on the sponge instead of diluting it in water.

She’s one of those who likes to have a lot of suds and bubbles when she washes her dishes, along with my husband.

Since my husband has no problem with the leading brand, he says Bubble Man is just okay, but for me, I like that it’s easy to wash off the plates. I don’t have a problem with suds since I’m aware that suds are a product of marketing but I did find the mixture less concentrated and preferred applying it directly to the sponge, too, instead of diluting 3% of it in water as advised by the product makers.

Maybe the lack of suds and bubbles is because they took out certain chemicals common in many commercial brands, such as Sodium Hydroxide and Sodium Tripolyphosphate?

Sodium Hydroxide is the content that most likely dried the skin of my fingers and caused irritation. Sodium Tripolyphosphate harms our planet.

Bubble Man being eco-friendly means that it’s sustainable and safe to use for our family and safe for the environment. It’s perfect for the eco-friendly lifestyle that we’re trying to adapt as a family.

    Yup you’re right, the formula is probably less soapy because of the removal of Sodium hydroxide and triphosphate, those are chemicals that help make the suds! Although they could have added a replacement using plant extracts

    This looks like something I’d use. My hands tend to dry up with my current brand.

    We also let go of signature dishwashing brands because we find it too expensive compared to local, uncommercialized ones so we switched to a brand being sold in the province. Bubble Man has a cute packaging too!

    As you know, I’ve been experiencing the same allergic reaction to that leading brand you were referring too. So, for the past few months we’ve been using another local brand instead, which is cheaper but gentler on my hands. It’s not eco-friendly like this one though so I hope to try this too soon. :)

    oh shocks mali yung basa ko, “my fingers have not been reacting badly to it” not pala. As long as it is not delicate on the hands, no harm on trying it.

    I don’t do the dishes often, so I won’t know the difference between one dish washer from another…Haven’t seen this anywhere either, so I’m glad you’ve shared it!

    Hmm this is something new. I am not sure if I am going to try this anytime soon because you mentioned the effect on your hands. I have a very sensitive skin in terms of detergents or washing liquids so I need something that is delicate in the hands.

    I love eco-friendly product. I think I will need to consider this as one of our dishwashing liquid options. Though I might need to adjust because you’ve mentioned that unlike the leading brands, it has no or less suds only. But the most important thing is that it cleans our everyday dishes :)

    I haven’t seen this in the market yet, but I’d love to try it out :)

    I haven’t seen this brand in the Supermarket yet. I hope that they will be available anywhere soon so that there are more choices for us.

      Just not at Robinson’s and SM Supermarkets, they say. Still under negotiation. But they’re available in other supermarkets.

    Is it drying to the hands? Because the other brand I use (begins w J -the antibacterial one) is really drying to my hands! And it has cute packaging, too!

      Haha everyone’s pointing out to the packaging. I thought it looks exactly the same as the leading brand. But no, it doesn’t dry out your hands.

    I should give Bubble Man a try especially I am teaching my son on how to wash plates hehe. This is good for his young and delicate skin because it’s eco friendly.

    New in the market? I have not seen this in the nearby groceries that we frequent. I hope it will be available here soon. Like you, not that I’m such a cheapskate, but yes it’s an everyday item so it would be great to have it cheaper and still work well. :)

    I’ve been alternating between a local brand and Human Nature’s dishwashing liquid, but I’m intrigued by this (also because it is affordable). Hope I can find this in Davao City!

    It’s good to know that it’s good for the environment. I do like lots of suds though. It just feels cleaner hehe.
