I love being in the kitchen and creating and cooking – but the one thing I have always dreaded is cleaning up. I would like to be like my 2 year old – I love to make the mess, but when it’s time to clean up you sneak off and find something else to do. lol. Unfortunately I get cleanup duty a lot, and even with a dish washer – there are still dishes that have to be hand washed every time.
I have been using for years because it works so good. I hardly have to use any and I get a sink full of clean dishes. Not only do I use Dawn to clean the dirty dishes in the sink but it also works great at cleaning my sink up when I am done. My sink is always gross after I get done loading the dishwasher – and before I can wash the dishes that couldn’t go in (like my mixing bowl and attachments, knives, and other items) I always clean my sink out.
You can see how beautiful it looks and because of the great grease cutting power of Dawn, it really didn’t take much. This is important to me because I have four young children who always want to be doing something fun (especially now that it is summer). I don’t want to get stuck doing dishes for an hour. When I use Dawn, it cuts down on my cleaning time of not just the dishes, but also the sink and other places around my kitchen.
We got a fun kit with items to make Blue Velvet Cupcakes. It is such a great recipe. You can download the Blue Velvet Cupcakes Recipe here. It was pretty easy to make and the frosting was very yummy too.
Since has double the grease fighting power in each drop – the powerful formula helps me get my dirty dishes clean faster, making it so I can spend more time with my kids and hubby. Since it is so much easier to clean up – I have that much more fun making messes with my kids. You can always find Dawn for a great price – and I am always able to use coupons to save even more. We are on a budget, like most people, but when it comes to our dish soap – we choose Dawn. It goes farther and cleans better.
Here is how our Blue Velvet Cupcakes turned out. We also had purple and blue frosting to use and the kids loved it. I was lucky to steal these ones away for the pictures. They ate all of the rest before I even finished taking the pictures. They love helping me bake and cook, and of course I love having them help me.

jeannine s says
We love dawn. It s the best at cutting through the grease
Amy Orvin says
My favorite thing about Dawn is that it’s so tough on dirty dishes. My experience with Dawn has been fabulous. I love how I can have a dish that has stuck on grease or food on it and then let it soak with hot water and Dawn. An hour or so later, go back and the food and or grease slides right off. I love it. I don’t have to scrub that much. I don’t know if they are still having it or not, but I also loved how Dawn helped donate to save wildlife with every bottle sold.
Julie Wood says
The only dish liquid I use is Dawn! It cleans all my dishes without leaving grease on any pan or dish. I have used other dish soaps, but they do not work as good as Dawn does.
KV says
I soak my dishes in Dawn & it makes them easier to clean.
Melissa says
Dawn is primarily what I use, it’s great. My mom used it growing up and when I left the nest, I tried other dish soaps for a time, but it always felt like I had to use so much more to accomplish what I used to be able to accomplish with just a small bit of Dawn. So, right now there is a huge jug from Costco full of Dawn in my kitchen 🙂 cause it just gets the job done.
Catherine Haynes says
I have used Dawn for as long as I can remember. It is a dish detergent I can count on to get my dishes clean
Ann says
I have always used Dawn. I laugh because I have used it on things that I have had people say What are you doing?!
I used it in the soap sprayer for the hose on kennel areas, house, kid equipment you name it.
The list is endless..
I work with special needs rescues so in the 80’s I would was those with Demodex mange with Dawn, and that was gentle and smothered some of the mites, this helped with the additional treatments of medications.
So, it is not just for cleaning dishes, it works for some first aid, animals and more.
HS says
I like Dawn, great quality and it cleans dishes very well.
debbie campbell says
When I use Dawn, I do feel like my dishes are more clean.
wesley snyder says
we have used Dawn to wash our Dogs from an Auto-Gease-Oily mess
Roe Clark says
Dawn works great to cut the grease especially when I deep fry and have a greasy fry basket to wash
Pam G. says
I have used Dawn for many years, but my parents always used palmolive and I hated doing the dishes at their house, because they always felt greasy after washing, no matter how hot the water was or how much palmolive I used. About 5 years ago, after my Mom had passed away, I encouraged my Dad to switch to dawn. I told him how dawn cuts through grease and leaves your dishes and hands feeling better and cleaner! He has been using dawn ever since! Its simply the best on the market! And we have all seen how it works for the wildlife that are unlucky enough to be near an oil spill! How many lives has dawn saved? AWESOME!
Anita L says
Dawn is the only dish soap that I will use. It’s the only one that really gets my dishes clean and grease free!
Danya says
I have used Dawn since I was a little girl. That’s what we’ve always used. It does a great job cleaning dishes and I even use it to treat grease spots on clothes. Works like a charm.
