Charlie's Soap - Review and Giveaway

I once tried to use powdered laundry detergent...
but that was just not working for us...
The powder left big clumps on the clothes...
They had this white junk all over them...
That was when I said NO to the Powder!
I was a liquid girl and that was that...

Until...
I started seeing Charlie's Soap on several blogs I follow.
I like that Charlie started making this soap back in 1976.
I really like that Charlie has kept his business here in the USA.
I also like that it is family owned and operated!

I wanted to try out Charlie's Soap...
If it has been around since the late 70's...
They must be doing something right!
I was able to review their Powdered Laundry Detergent.
I like how they tell you step by step how to get the best results...
First of all, you need to run a few times with old rags/towels to clean any of the residue out of the washer.
Makes since, although I have never thought about it before...
(Kind of like when I change shampoo brands to keep from getting any residue... at least in my mind, that is why I do it!)
So, I got some old towels and rags...
Ran the times that they told me...
Then, I figured I would try the first load with our bath towels.
I washed them and dried them...
I don't know what I was expecting, but they came out clean and good to go.
No scent to it, just "clean."
Am I making any sense?

I have since used Charlie's Soap several times...
Marc's work clothes...
(Got the dirt out)
Broxton's clothes...
(Didn't break him out, as some do... remember, he has sensitive skin... )
My clothes...
(Clean and ready to go)

For those of you that use cloth diapers...
(I would love to try that route if we have another baby)
You can read all about Charlie's Soap recommendations for Cloth Diapering HERE.

Charlie's Soap is HE compatible...
KEY THING---- It only takes ONE TABLESPOON of Charlie's Soap to wash a large load!
Yes, just ONE!
Talk about getting your money's worth...
and it takes up very little space!
You can buy an 80 load bucket and it equals less that 20 cents per load!
Talk about a good price!
(Non- Toxic, Biodegradable, Hypoallergenic, HELLO!)

Oh, did I tell you that they sell more than powdered detergent?
(They even have a hard water kit for those of you that need the help!)
For those that are still not ready to chance it and try the powdered detergent...
You can get the same awesome results, in Liquid Detergent!
Also, for those hard workers out there...
They have an All Purpose Cleaner!
It is safe for many types of surfaces...
for all types of messes.
You can even use it to clean the goop and gunk off of your hands!!!!

  4. I've never tried it, but I'm game to! I used to use ALL Free & Clear since it was cheap and I have a babe with sensitive skin, but sometimes it seemed to leave odd spots on the clothes? Not cool, ALL!

    I like Tide but it's so expensive...

    Thanks for offering the entries!
