Lemon Dishwashing Liquid

Lemon dishwashing liquid is a household cleaning product for washing dishes, pots, pans, glasses and cutlery by hand. It carries a lemon scent and is commonly used by adding a small amount to a wet sponge or to a basin of water, working it into a lather, then rinsing the dishes with clean water. Many households also use it for wiping kitchen counters and stovetops. At Dekenet Al Nes, a package-free grocery store in Baaqline in the Chouf, this dishwashing liquid is sold by weight, so customers can bring their own bottles or containers and refill them. Refilling instead of buying a new plastic bottle each time cuts single-use packaging and plastic waste, which is part of the shop's aim of making basic household necessities affordable while reducing environmental costs.
