Palmolive Fresh Sponge!

I got my first Influenster box, a dishwashing kit from Palmolive including a FULL size dish soap bottle, a sponge, a coupon for me, and 5 to give away to some lucky friends and neighbors! I have to say, I have been using the same dish soap for years. When I opened the box the first thing I did was smell the soap of course!! It was a fruity HEAVEN! I'd describe it as an apple-y, berry-ish scent. Anyway, it's amazing.

I got to work right away, pouring some of the soap into my yucky crock pot. Once again, I was not disappointed. It scrubbed off the burnt crust around the edges and freshened the smell right up! I have a little trick for dish soap that my husband taught me. I use a travel squirt bottle (with a handle pump, not one of the tiny finger squirter ones. My friend tried that, didn't work out!) and fill it about 1/4 full of soap and the rest water, leaving enough to shake it a bit. It makes dish washing so much faster and easier, without over sudsing your dishes. You'll thank me later if you don't already do this. You're welcome :)

Then on to the sponge. It says it removes odors and freshens your sponge so I put it to the test on my counter tops. Then I dabbed a bit of soap on the sponge and rubbed it around to "clean" the sponge". Lovely! Sponge was clean and smelling fabulous! I really loved this product, but most of all the scent. I can't get over how much I love the smell of this particular product. The only thing I didn't like about this kit was the sponge. I didn't realize the green part was scotch and it rubbed the finish off my countertops. Beware! But as far as the dish soap, I can 100% say I love this product enough to buy it again!

DISCLAIMER: I was given this product complimentary for testing purposes from Colgate-Palmolive via Influenster. The opinions in this blog post are my honest opinions.
