    It is Not good!.....A. they test on animals, B. it is filled with chemicals that are bad for your body and the environment.

    here are some better options, all "cruelty free and eco-friendly";

    "Mrs.Meyers" brand- (all of their products are wonderful!, cannot find them at major places though, might have to order online)

    I'm not sure if they have dish detergent, but they have a lot of other great cleaning supplies"Caldrea" brand- (again you need a specialty store, or order online)

    When shopping for any household products, as long as it says "environmentally friendly, not tested on animals, or cruelty free"--marked visible on the packaging-- then you are Good to Buy ;-)

    and always remember, look at the ingredients, it is always better that you can read/ understand what the product is made with, and the shorter the list, the better....

    hope this helps!...

    Peace
