Method Washing Up Liquid Refill, Peach & Pink Pepper, 1 L

I’ve cycled through nearly every supermarket brand of washing-up liquid over the years, from the budget stuff to “eco” labels that either didn’t clean properly or smelled like damp leaves. This Method Peach & Pink Pepper refill was a gamble—mainly bought because I liked the bottle design and had seen it pop up in a few minimalist kitchens online. But it turned out to be one of the most unexpectedly pleasant daily-use items I’ve ever added to my cleaning routine. First, the scent. It’s genuinely something I look forward to now. A warm, peachy sweetness laced with a subtle kick of pink pepper that gives it just enough sophistication. It doesn’t smell like a fake fruit bomb, nor like a perfumey chemical cloud. It’s balanced, inviting, and oddly calming while doing dishes—especially when you're elbow-deep in greasy pans or plastic tubs that held oily stir-fries. That tiny sensory lift goes a long way at the end of a long day. Performance-wise, it punches above its weight. I’ve tested it on everything from hardened egg yolk to congealed tahini, and while it doesn't have the hyper-detergent snap of commercial-grade liquids, it does a great job with minimal elbow grease. You need slightly more than a concentrated green bottle brand, but not much—and it rinses off without leaving that clingy, squeaky feel I hate. Even on glassware, there’s no foggy film or residue if you use hot water. I also ran a side-by-side test with a mainstream brand on two identical trays with baked-on oil. Method needed a second sponge pass, while the harsher brand cut through quicker. But Method didn’t dry my hands out or leave that chemical tightness. For someone with sensitive skin or who does dishes multiple times a day, that trade-off is worth it. The refill pouch is another reason I’ll keep buying it. It’s sturdily made and reseals well, which makes it ideal for topping up the Method pump bottle I now reuse. It’s lighter on plastic and space than rigid containers, and I’ve had no leaks during storage. Bonus points for being biodegradable and plant-based—though I take eco claims with caution, I do appreciate the transparency and lack of harsh ingredients. It’s not the cheapest, and if you’ve got a full household constantly dirtying up dishes, you might burn through it quickly. But for one or two people who value both scent and softness, it hits a lovely sweet spot between luxury and practicality. I’ve now got it on Subscribe & Save because I ran out once and genuinely missed it.

I’ve been using Method washing-up liquid for over 5 years now, and it’s still one of the best products I’ve found. The refill pack is great value and helps reduce plastic waste, which I really appreciate. The formula is gentle on the hands—it never dries them out, even with frequent washing—and it cuts through grease and grime really well. A little goes a long way, and it always leaves my dishes clean without any harsh smell or residue.

Love this product. Smells great, is eco friendly and washes dishes with ease. I buy this refill but have been unable to buy an original bottle to replace my old one that is on its last legs!

What a lovely smell.. so good ive ordered another bottle to have ready

Smells DIVINE and lasts a good while (one pouch lasts myself and my husband a month quite happily). The only problem is that it isn’t 100% in greasy things, and when we’ve done something like a roast chicken we’ve needed to wash the trays twice to get rid of the grease. Takes quite of lot of liquid to be an efficient wash. But, on the whole it’s better for the environment and better on the hands, so it’s still a win for me. My priority for purchasing this is that we’re trying to use less plastic and other companies don’t do washing up liquid refills yet.

Does what it says on the bottle. Like all the refills from method. Good size and value with good cleaning power.

Smells lovely. Quite a thick liquid, I dilute it with half water for our dish soap dispenser in the kitchen, and plug the dispenser feed tube directly into the bottle. Have this on subscription delivery.

Great product
