    I rub a small dollop of Tesco value shower gel, into "stains" before putting them into the wash. Same principle as the washing up liquid tip, I guess. Works well for me.

    Glad you're seeing results! Just to add Whizz Oxi clean powder, £1 from Tesco, is fantastic for tough stains! It even removes bright yellow breastfed baby bum explosions from white vests first time, and pre-soaking in it removed some old stains from my 3 year olds clothes.

    Mr LW shaves using a wet razor and old-fashioned shaving soap sticks, and when the stick gets so small that he's having trouble using it, I have the remaining bit to use as "household soap"; I find this rubbed onto stains before washing shifts them effectively.:money:
