Great video Sophie. Thank you for your research. I’m glad to see Molly Suds in your review. I just purchased that to try after a recommendation from a friends daughter. So far, I really like it.

@SophisticatedOrganization Жыл бұрын

Thank you for watching, Molly Suds seems great, and the peppermint is surprisingly light in a really pleasant way!

I like the ingredients, but they don't work as well as i need them to. I also feel like the powder is ruining my machine

@nrgltwrkr2225 11 ай бұрын

Thank you! This was very informative! I would like you to test the various laundry detergent strips (Poesie, ClearLif, True Earth, Eco Friendly, etc) that are out there now. No plastic/reduced packaging, no water, so greener in that way. I would also like to see you soil strips of white sheets or white T-shirts in a bucket of muddy water all at the same time, and then launder each of them in each detergent per the directions, to truly test their cleaning power. Green is great, but does each detergent actually do a great job of getting the clothes clean, especially whites?

I love Zum Laundry soap. I love their fragrance and my clothes come out soft without fabric softener. They also have a Sweet Orange, Amber and I believe a Geranium fragrance as well.

Oh that is great to know, I really enjoy Zum and would love to try another fragrance

@tinamoore6352 Жыл бұрын

Very helpful and informative. I use the whitening version Molly’s Sud’s for my white towels and clothes and it is amazing. I personally have switched to True Earth dryer sheets and I purchase one year at a time which reduces the cost. They work extremely well plus reduces plastic use and is environmentally friendly which is important to me.

I use it for white underwear and don't find it to be super effective. I'm trying the regular Molly suds now and also not getting my clothes super clean. I have little kids, i need something strong

Thank you for paying so much attention to fragrance, esp. the possible scent of "unscented." I also have not really enjoyed Dr. Bronner's (in my case, as shampoo) even though so many others do.

You are so welcome! Unscented really isn't always "unscented"! I'm with you, I've tried it as body wash and a few other uses... not sold

@elizabethpreciadogenell46 4 ай бұрын

This was very helpful. Do you have a high efficiency washer? I’m looking for natural detergents that will work well in an h.e. washer. Many detergents that say they are h.e. compatible sud up too much and don’t rinse out properly. I’m wondering how these perform in this capacity. Thank you!

Sophie, I have been using the Zum laundry detergent and Molly suds. I like them both, especially the Molly Suds for workout clothes. I was curious if you could do a laundry whitener comparison or do you have a favorite laundry whitener? Thanks for all the information! I started using Zum when you mentioned you were using it for Owen’s laundry.

@nina009 Жыл бұрын

Thanks for doing the testing for us! Curious about the water temp you use when washing. I wash almost exclusively on the cold setting in our HE washer. How well do the powders dissolve? I’ve tried some detergent sheets before just to save on space, and many of them didn’t perform well or didn’t dissolve well in cold water and left a bunch of stains on our clothes. I’d be interested in one of the powders since I wash often and have smaller loads, but I’m concerned they will not dissolve well.

@veganconservative1109 11 ай бұрын

I also wash cold/warm water (keeps electricity use down) and found powders leave crust stains as they did not dissolve well. Maybe if you use a tea kettle to pre-desolve the powder into a liquid detergent then use that it would work. Prefer the convenience of just liquid.

lavender is an endocrine disruptor, I would advice against lavender, tea tree oil or primrose scented detergents

Yes. An endocrinologist told me this years ago. They said one young boy patient was growing breasts. they finally realized his mother had been putting lavender in his bath and lotion since he was a baby.

@Megs901 19 күн бұрын

This is true of synthetic lavender, not actual lavender. The same for the other scents. Do actual research, and don’t just believe people in the comments. Real essential oils are not endocrine disrupters.

Hi Sophie could you maybe try some of the newer laundry sheets. They save space and are supposed to be better for the environment.

Hi Sophie! Have you ever tried making your own laundry detergent? I have been wanting to try, there are lots of recipes online.

I was going ask that. I was thinking she did, but maybe confusing her with another KZfaqr.

The ingredients she listed in the Meliora brand sound basically just like the homemade ones.

@SophisticatedOrganization Жыл бұрын

I actually haven't before, but as the other commenter said, the Meliora is basically those ingredients you would use to make a homemade version. curious as to why it would be so expensive though... 🤔 Maybe I should try making my own next!

I only use Castile soap for my laundry and my clothes comes out clean. It's an awesome stain remover as well. I dilute it before using it and it's still potent. I don't use anything else.

@lisagregory8912 8 ай бұрын

I was wondering about deluting it like many use bar soaps for making laundry detergent with washing soda. But obviously may not need the washing soda with it. My question is how well does the castile soap clean. I have several kids and dogs so I need something tough especially for my football players.
