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 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?
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

KEY THING---- It only takes ONE TABLESPOON of Charlie's Soap to wash a large load!

ReplyDeleteI'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!
ReplyDeleteI like Tide but it's so expensive...
