Lidl Formil washing powder Lavender & Camomile

I usually use Ariel and Fairy, depending on what I'm washing and who I'm washing for, but to save money I thought I'd try a box of their biological colour wash powder. I know this will be an unpopular statement but I wasn't impressed with it. Not only did it not remove blood stains (OH has bad psoriasis that bleeds in patches), it also didn't smell nice and left a bad smell on the clothes.

I'm trying to finish the box by using a little less Ariel every other wash and topping up with this, as I couldn't use it on its own.

We’ve started using it and no difference at all

We always used to use it and didn't notice any difference at all from mainstream branded versions, we now use the formil liquid detergent and still just as good as any other, I don't see the point of paying more money just for a brand name that does the same job.

I think when Lidl "copy" the packaging of brand they do so knowing that it is very similar to the brand they are copying.

That is how they get people to switch & then stay loyal to Lidls products.

So, it won't be far off at all. (edited)

I used the Lidl and Aldi versions, both were rubbish, clogged up in the drawer and didn't smell that nice.

I'm sticking with Persil bio powder or Bold (blue one)
