I once watched a video from an appliance expert and he stated that people use way too much laundry detergent and you only need about two tablespoons of detergent into a load of laundry, the agitation is tremendously responsible for getting the clothes clean, not so much the detergent. I tried this and honestly, it works. People tend to think more is always better and the detergent companies are cheering us on. Loved this content Vivian
True! The way the detergent clings on to dirt and oils and then it's released in the rinse. When you use too much detergent, the detergent clings to dirt and oils and when there's too much product, your clothes are actually not getting as clean.
Is true I used cloth diapers for my babies I used half a scoop of tide og powder for heavy soiled items. Try water softeners too your water is probably hard if you don't get bubbles Also the worst is a washer w No agitator
Vivían, Prang is not a Dollar Tree brand, it’s actually a big name brand. When I was in school, all of our paints and chalks were Prang. It’s great quality! 😊
Elementary art teacher. In the fb groups I'm in seems like sp many of us are frustrated with anything crayola lately and moving towards more prang items
I've been using the eco wash sheets for over a year and love it. It comes with no smell which for me is perfect. It beats using the plastic bottles that they don't recycle.
I was thinking the same thing. The one thing about the dollar tree sheets and not being able to feel the soap is there should be no residue left on the clothes.
Vivian, I am a Dollar Tree Junkie. I appreciate that you compare products. You're pretty much spot on when it comes to comparisons. When I am standing in line at the Dollar Tree, I recommend your channel to people. I love your personality and the sincerity. Some of the comments that you have off the top of your head are very funny. I appreciate a great sense of humor.😂😂😂
I use TruEarth laundry strips. They're the same size as the dollar tree one I think, but perforated down the middle. So you use half the amount and they WORK! I'm a paramedic and I'd throw a 'dirty' uniform in on hot with 1 strip (half sheet) and it was clean. I wear all dark clothes so can't speak to stains, but I sweat a lot and 1/2 a strip (1/4 sheet) was all I would use for a regular load of undies socks shirts jeans, and they'd come out great. I store my strips in a little jar, which is handy for small spaces (keep it on a magnetic shelf even) and there's no mess. Cheap shipping for online ordering too because no water weight.
@SuperSniggle I currently just used a Year's worth of Earth Breeze and not super thrilled with the performance particularly with stain removal . So I was considering Clean Earth brand to try next.
I've never heard of True Earth. I just got finished using a whole year supply of Earth Breeze . They are okay they get your clothes clean and they smell okay meaning that there is no smell I don't like smell. But they don't do the best on simple stain removal
I use TruEarth exclusively now. I like the one strip per regular load, two strip heavy load and 1/2 strip light load method; I've never been good at "eyeballing" the liquid stuff. They have a Platinum range too for other needs but I've stuck with the regular. Great start-up Canadian Company that has a full range now of other cleaning products (just add water). Yes, they do sell in store and on line but I hear Costco also carries it on-line too. *Note to read labels regularly as Nature Clean (also a Canadian company) moved their production of laundry detergent sheets off-shore recently.
Prang is a name brand actually. The fact that dollar tree carries it is wonderful. This brand is often found in elementary school art class. I remember my childhood 2nd grade (hmm 1983'ish) my art teacher had this big gray cart and the bottom shelf held 1 gallon 😂jugs of Prang tempra paints, Prang watercolors are also a staple. They are elementary student grade paints but nearly every kid in America has used them at least once in thier life. ❤ oh and just FYI you need to heat set the markers with an iron and typically no water for 48 hours. ❤
I started using laundry sheets over 6 years ago. I was in South Korea and went to get some detergent. I asked a clerk what to buy since I couldn’t read any of the packaging. She introduced me to the sheets. I thought it was a great idea. I only used it for travel to preserve my stash. Now that I can freely buy them it’s all I use.
My mom has been buying these (not dollar tree) detergent sheets for a while. She started because they weigh so much less than a bottle of detergent. They work so well!!
Feel like we need a do over on the laundry sheet test. Dissolve them then put the liquid in a squeeze bottle, squirt it on cothing or towel youve dirtied up and lets see which works better on the dirty clothes. And pro-tip....suds have nothing to do with getting your clothes clean. Just more sulfates.
Not true that suds have nothing to do with it. Just not very much. The suds actually cause microbes to break down. It just doesn't take a lot of suds to do it.
I use cloth rounds that I bought on Amazon with a make up remover balm to remove my make up. Then I put them in the little laundry bag that they came with. Then I wash my face with water and cleanser for my double cleanse. I feel good that I am not throwing away wipes or disposable cotton pads.
Vivian!!!! You’re looking slimmer, girl! If you’re trying to, good for you 🥰 If you don’t want to be but are from sickness or stress, girl, I’ll pray with you if you need prayers. ❤
The Arm&Hammer laundry sheets are awesome. Have tried other brands but these really work and don't leave any residue on your clothers or in your wacher.
I smelled all the scents of the body sprays and there was one vanilla on the shelf. Smelled good. I bought it. The cashier smelled it and commented also that it smelled good. I have used it and have been pleasantly surprised and happy with it.
They have an Eternity dupe?? 😮 I had bought a couple bottles of the Vanilla mist (BBW Warm Vanilla Sugar dupe) - spot on, and I layer it over the BBW body cream...
I admittedly don't wear much make-up, but I love the micellar water always available at DT. You can use a cotton round or anything of your choice. It amazes me how even if I've worn no make-up and have washed my face it removes "dirt". It also seems to soften skin.
We pay way too much for added water in all the cleaning stuff. I’ll put my own water in it thanks. I just bought some laundry detergent sheets. I hope it’s good! I was using ultra concentrated powder. But if sheets are just as good it will save me some room and no more spilled powder when someone else uses the wash. 😆
Vivian, those laundry sheets changed my life! Its just soap without all that water! Like, dehydrated! No more big ole plastc jug, and my clothes are clean, i promise.
I have been using the detergent sheets for 4 years. I love them. No plastic in the landfill and not heavy. I live in an apartments No carring jugs to the machines.
The detergent sheets aren't as popular in Canada because they're at least twice the price per load as liquid. For a fair evaluation, you really should have run a load of laundry with each strip. And the Cetaphil wipes box bottom is so that hard-working shelf-stockers can stand them up for display easily and without the lot of them falling over. People who dislike wipes don't like the waste they create, and dermatologists dislike them because they give users the erroneous message that the wipes are all they need to clean their face. Wipes are fine for removing cosmetics and other crap from your face, but you still need to use cleanser and water.
I like using a cleansing oil to remove make-up followed by a regular face cleanser. It makes my skin feel amazing and the make-up removal wipes are not going into the trash. Also I feel like we've all been duped to feel like fragrance from detergent means clean, when I feel like clean shouldn't smell like anything at all. I've been using the detergent sheets for about four years now, and I can honestly say they work great. No plastic, less space, no unnecessary fragrance. Leave that to your expensive perfume.😉
I tried the BPure rose facial oil after watching your video and I was super impressed. It contains no mineral oil and has rose, jojoba, and argan oil and triglycerides. Highly impressive.😊
I use laundry detergent sheets and love them! The brand I use is called Tru Earth. They're manufactured in Canada and shipped to my home. It makes me feel good that I'm not using plastic containers.
For the most economical detergent and less landfill... Walmart... bottom shelf...$1.38 for a small bag of powdered detergent. I have been using it for over a year. It cleans amazingly well. I bought a metal reusable container at Walmart for about 13 bucks. It even comes with a scoop. It has saved me tons of money!
💸🌳 fragrances?? Uhhhh, NO! You're so right, Viv. Through the years, I have discarded countless 💸🌳 items due to 'stank'. Fragrance quality is #1 priority for me. Nonetheless, as a sr citizen with a skimpy 'social insecurity' budget ~.I literally couldn't make ends meet if not for 💸🌳 and 💸👲. Vivian. I LOVE your channel. I get so tickled at some of the silly things you spontaneously say & do! You're a natural comedian with a magnetic personality & I'm always looking forward to your next 'visit'🤗 Keep doin' what cha do, Sis! 💸🛒💸🛒💸🛒
I remember when those perfume dupes were actually great - until yes, they reformulated them, and they became just alcohol bombs! The Vanilla body mist they have now - is a spot-on dupe of Bath & Body Works Warm Vanilla Sugar, I couldn't believe it! I bought 2 bottles, and I layer it over the BBW body cream!
I use cerave it's a cream to a foaming face wash it's fantastic. It does have hyleronic acid does great and I have sensitive skin. Never had a problem with break outs and all my makeup including mascara was washed off
I found the mini humidifier today and I think it is a steal for 1.25. I am using it for my little mini grow for my plants. I have a very dry heat in my house I could definitely use it for a bedside humidifier to keep from being stuffy. 🎉
FYI, Prang is actually a name brand. They make excellent high quality markers, paint, chalks, and colored pencils. I googled the Prang fabric marker set and it runs anywhere from 6-10.00
I’ve also been using the eco sheets over a year. It works great and is especially good if you have to go to a laundromat. Clothes are clean and I get the ones without a scent.
I keep those kinds of laundry sheets in our camper because they are light and take up no space! They work great! I was debating on switching to sheets at home at some point too
I actually like those detergent sheets. I use them. Have been for a year. It really makes a difference when you live in an apartment ..and have to lug laundry .. I always fill the machine a bit with water ...with sheet in ripped up.. and agitate the water so the detergent is dissolved. I like it
I'm so glad I watched your other video with the little black/clear see-through makeup bags with the pink pom pom on them. I figured they were just another throwaway bag, but after your video, I went to buy a couple to try, and yes I have an entire face worth of makeup in one of those small bags --😮 I couldn't believe it! Thank you so much!!!
The detergent sheets are amazing for my husband, as he is a truck driver and may need to do laundry on the road. With these no spills in the truck and saves room.
I use and love laundry sheets from Clean People. They do a great job and take up almost no storage space, and zero plastic. I'm allergic to fragrance and another common detergent additive, so these have been ideal the last few years
My granddaughter bought some of the laundry sheets on Amazon. I have only used them once so far. I used two of them for a medium sized load of towels and they came out very clean with a fresh scent.
The fabric markers from dollar tree are also brand name . Prang is a very good name for paint , markers, and other artist supplies. Also, the markers have to be heat set with a dry iron, and they will be colorfast. For shoes I have used a blow dryer on hi, or a heat gun. You have to be very careful with the heat gun though. You can also toss them in a very hot dryer to set. I hope this helps! ❤
Read the Consumer Reports article on laundry sheets. They are all terrible and the best ones (super expensive) do about 40% of the cleaning of liquid soap. They did not clean towels, at all and forget stains.
Have been using them for a year. It works wonderfully. Use Clean People. I have also used some off brand ones too. They do the job. Still spot clean with regular detergent.
I have been using the eco sheets in my front loader for over a year and I love them!! Had no idea Dollar Tree sold them…I will purchase if my local store sells them!! They are great!!
I'm with you I can't use cheap laundry products my choice is Gain Flings with fabreeze the Fabreeze beads and Downey I like all of the Downy scents I prefer the newer ones though. My daughter prefers Tide and uses the Bounce sheets. She love's the beads but she and I can't afford them all of the time, I use a smaller amount to stretch it cause I just love them. Thank you for sharing! Many Blessings to you and your family!!
For my face I use Dove bar soup and Noxsema I've been using it my entire life and it's never failed me. I'm old too 😅 I use a moisturizer, and a serum I love Luna but it's so expensive I use different ones different times of the year
I tried them, I also add baking soda and vinegar and a few drops of natural essential oils in my washer, but I went back to detergent because the sheet got stuck on the inside of my washer and I almost couldn’t get it off. So I make my own with baking soda, vinegar and essential oils and my clothes are beautifully clean and smell amazing and I’m saving a lot of money 💰♥️🙏🏼♥️🥰♥️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️
Viv...I've been using laundry detergent sheets for more than a year. It's great! I just use another sheet when my clothes are more soiled...just like the liquid products. 😊
I use the sheets but also use Seventh Generation Power Dose and Ever Spring Softener because they are Ulta concentrated and the bottles are very small so a little less waste. Many people don’t like makeup wipes because they are not sustainable. I agree with the double cleanse, but try a cleansing balm/oil, wipe it off with a wet makeup eraser cloth or any cloth. Then go in with your 2nd cleanser. No more waste, better for your skin! 😊
I love the Arm & Hammer sheets and have been using them for about 6 months. I have 2 elementary aged kids and a dog and feel like they work better than the pods!
I highly recommend dollar store sugar lip scrub and the lip oil. My FAVORITE items in dollar store. I got some for the girls at work. Oh and i bought the little silicone applicator. Not sure it that's what it's for but work GREAT with the scuba bc the end of applicator is bumpy. Lol😊
Have you tried the Bpure lotion it comes in hyaluronic acid B3, collagen anti aging, vitamin c, they all contain Niacinamide, the green and yellow bottle Will help skin bleaching skin whitening brightening
I've been using the laundry sheets from Earth Breeze for at least five years now, if not more. And I love them! They clean everything just fine. I have to use the scent free ones and my clothes don't stink at all, so I know it's working!
I’ve used the laundry sheets from a brand off Amazon. Since I have a huge washer, it takes about 3 sheets to do a big load. I didn’t like them, so, I just buy what’s on sale, whether it’s large bottles or the pods. 🤷 I know the sheets are designed to waste less plastic.
Vicky's Secret mists and lotions used to smell good for SO much longer, back in the 90s. Literally, spray in the morning, and it would smell for hours. Not anymore...🤷🏻♀️
I love the laundry sheets. Most people tend to use too much detergent, fabric softeners, etc. Over time, all of the products tend to build up on the clothes which makes it harder to get them clean and makes them dingy.
The flowers in the lip balms are just there for looks. They are cute. I wonder if the flowers were sterilized before being used in the balms/glosses. We don't want to get Fungalitis from lip gloss.
Always glad that you try out the items on your channel. It educates us all. As other viewers have said PRANG is a name brand and a big one at that, your tested two name brands against each other, that’s great!
@@marysmith861my bf works at a factory that makes engine parts so he is covered head to toe with oil and the smell makes me want to vomit! I was curious if there was anything to help get the oil out of his work clothes.
Consumer reports doesn’t rate any laundry sheet well. We have pets and hubby and I do lots of cleaning yard work, and activities in this hot, humid climate so I won’t trust them until the technology improves. I like the idea, though !
I love all your videos. You are so funny and very honest in your reviews of the products. Thank you for all you do. I really look out for all your videos.
I switched to the sheets I really like them, its basically the same soap but you're not paying for a bottle full of water mixed with it, its more concentrated
Dollar Tree Dupes are my favorite things 😍
I love you Vivian ❤
Me too!!
Me,too.Especially, dupes by Vivian❣
Same here
I'm in Tennessee our Dollar tree don't have much of anything would love the shampoo n. Lotion
I once watched a video from an appliance expert and he stated that people use way too much laundry detergent and you only need about two tablespoons of detergent into a load of laundry, the agitation is tremendously responsible for getting the clothes clean, not so much the detergent. I tried this and honestly, it works. People tend to think more is always better and the detergent companies are cheering us on. Loved this content Vivian
True! The way the detergent clings on to dirt and oils and then it's released in the rinse. When you use too much detergent, the detergent clings to dirt and oils and when there's too much product, your clothes are actually not getting as clean.
Yup! Leaves residue in the clothes, specifically if you use softener! Been using less and it's so much better!
Yes! Soap only breaks down dirt. The actual cleaner is...The universal solvent H20 😮 I love a good soapy wash, though
@Sunshine33333 I agree.
Is true I used cloth diapers for my babies I used half a scoop of tide og powder for heavy soiled items.
Try water softeners too your water is probably hard if you don't get bubbles
Also the worst is a washer w No agitator
Vivían, Prang is not a Dollar Tree brand, it’s actually a big name brand. When I was in school, all of our paints and chalks were Prang. It’s great quality! 😊
I came here to say this. Prang is a great brand!
I'm surprised they got prang. I had to get prang water colors for jr. High art class lasted well into high school!
Elementary art teacher. In the fb groups I'm in seems like sp many of us are frustrated with anything crayola lately and moving towards more prang items
Yes, I remember having Prang watercolors in elementary school and I’m almost 60!
Prang is on the same level with the Crayola brand or better.
I've been using the eco wash sheets for over a year and love it. It comes with no smell which for me is perfect. It beats using the plastic bottles that they don't recycle.
Me too in ohio
My son uses those too. He loves them. I plan on trying them once I finish my stash of liquid detergent.
Been using the laundry sheets for a year. Recommend using Shout stain remover, Clorox 2, bleach or whatever you usually use.
They're the way of the future. Someday we'll roll our eyes at the time we used it from those big, heavy jugs.
Me too. I love them.
I use the sheets so that I’m not adding plastic liquid containers to the landfill - and they work fine
Agreed! I've even tried the natural, fragrance-free sheets and they worked well. My clothes were clean, and I didn't have to deal with the jugs.
I"m so happy to see this product at DT. I didn't know they had them.
I get 180 sheets for 10 on Amazon. They work great, not heavy, no plastic. Your laundry soap is largely water! Oh, also, no mess and not heavy
I was thinking the same thing. The one thing about the dollar tree sheets and not being able to feel the soap is there should be no residue left on the clothes.
I order mine from Amazon, also-work great! No more big heavy plastic jugs

same reason I stared using the detergent pods, weight of the product.
I feel like we completely overexaggerate how dirty our clothing actually is.
I have issues with the pods not dissolving completely... even when I use hot water. found one stuck to my comforter one day.@@geebrewer8186
Feel like we need a do over on the laundry sheet test. Dissolve them then put the liquid in a squeeze bottle, squirt it on cothing or towel youve dirtied up and lets see which works better on the dirty clothes.

Not true that suds have nothing to do with it. Just not very much. The suds actually cause microbes to break down. It just doesn't take a lot of suds to do it.
Yes
I think the main thing about using wipes is it adds so much to the landfill. So many of us are trying to do as much as we can to prevent so much waste

Many are also very heavy on alcohol, which can be drying and harsh. Derm doctors don’t recommend them
Microfiber cloths. Best and cheapest option.
Vivian!!!! You’re looking slimmer, girl! If you’re trying to, good for you 🥰 If you don’t want to be but are from sickness or stress, girl, I’ll pray with you if you need prayers. ❤
Prang is name brand. It comes from Germany I think. They make art supplies. Their colored pencils are divine ❤
prang is my favorite brand!
prang is my favorite brand!
I prefer Prang to Crayola when getting colored pencils!
Exactly what I was going to say.
Sad they both ran, though. I'd hate to make someone something to have, then throw in the washer and the colors run.😢
The Arm&Hammer laundry sheets are awesome. Have tried other brands but these really work and don't leave any residue on your clothers or in your wacher.
I smelled all the scents of the body sprays and there was one vanilla on the shelf. Smelled good. I bought it. The cashier smelled it and commented also that it smelled good. I have used it and have been pleasantly surprised and happy with it.
I bought the Lovespell dupe, the Everlasting (Eternity?) Dupe and the Vanilla . All smell amazing!
They have an Eternity dupe?? 😮 I had bought a couple bottles of the Vanilla mist (BBW Warm Vanilla Sugar dupe) - spot on, and I layer it over the BBW body cream...
I admittedly don't wear much make-up, but I love the micellar water always available at DT. You can use a cotton round or anything of your choice. It amazes me how even if I've worn no make-up and have washed my face it removes "dirt". It also seems to soften skin.
Good to know, thanks!
We pay way too much for added water in all the cleaning stuff. I’ll put my own water in it thanks. I just bought some laundry detergent sheets. I hope it’s good! I was using ultra concentrated powder. But if sheets are just as good it will save me some room and no more spilled powder when someone else uses the wash. 😆
I already hate how little water my (most newer ones as well)wash machine uses so I don't mind using soap with added water ! Lol 😊
Let us know how u like the sheets once u get a chance to use them 😊
Vivian, those laundry sheets changed my life! Its just soap without all that water! Like, dehydrated! No more big ole plastc jug, and my clothes are clean, i promise.
For the makeup wash just get a pack of the white washcloths. You’ll get the exfoliation plus three recycle-factor

All you're paying for in jugs is water. Used laundry sheets for 3 years and love them.
I would shop way more at my Dollar Tree if 1)the store wasn’t so dirty & cluttered 2)stuff was in stock and 3)the staff wasn’t always in a bad mood.
I tried the BPure rose facial oil after watching your video and I was super impressed. It contains no mineral oil and has rose, jojoba, and argan oil and triglycerides. Highly impressive.😊

One of my stores is starting to get in more than $1.25 items, up to $5.00. Thanks for buying stuff first, so we don't have to!
I've been using detergent sheets for over a year and love them. So much more convenient and easy to use.
I loved them too! Except they fell behind the washer and can't reach them now 😢
Cleanse with witch hazel. Cheap and effective for facial wipes. Use thin cheap wash cloths then no waste.
I use cerave it's a cream to a foaming face wash it's fantastic. It does have hyleronic acid does great and I have sensitive skin. Never had a problem with break outs and all my makeup including mascara was washed off

I think. some of the objection to make-up wipes is the environmental impact. The waste of one time use, non biodegradable wipes adds up over time.
PRANG is a brand name for art supplies/paint! And the laundry sheets work well too!
I keep those kinds of laundry sheets in our camper because they are light and take up no space! They work great! I was debating on switching to sheets at home at some point too

I figured they were just another throwaway bag, but after your video, I went to buy a couple to try, and yes I have an entire face worth of makeup in one of those small bags --😮 I couldn't believe it! Thank you so much!!!
The detergent sheets are amazing for my husband, as he is a truck driver and may need to do laundry on the road. With these no spills in the truck and saves room.
Love the dupe comparison ! Please keep them coming and you're Positive Attitude! We really need now 💜
I use and love laundry sheets from Clean People. They do a great job and take up almost no storage space, and zero plastic. I'm allergic to fragrance and another common detergent additive, so these have been ideal the last few years
My granddaughter bought some of the laundry sheets on Amazon. I have only used them once so far. I used two of them for a medium sized load of towels and they came out very clean with a fresh scent.
Hey Viv, been a fan for years. We’ve been using the Earth Balance for almost three years, love them! Never going back to any other laundry soap.❤
I do like the fabric soap and it does come very clean my Husband works on our Harleys and his clothes even come clean only I use True Earth.
I use the eco-sheets and like them very much. However, I am not certain that I would use them on kids soccer laundry or something really dirty.
The fabric markers from dollar tree are also brand name . Prang is a very good name for paint , markers, and other artist supplies. Also, the markers have to be heat set with a dry iron, and they will be colorfast. For shoes I have used a blow dryer on hi, or a heat gun. You have to be very careful with the heat gun though. You can also toss them in a very hot dryer to set. I hope this helps! ❤
Those wash sheets have been around for years. As you said, they are perfect for travel and you don't have to worry about liquids if you're flying.
Read the Consumer Reports article on laundry sheets. They are all terrible and the best ones (super expensive) do about 40% of the cleaning of liquid soap. They did not clean towels, at all and forget stains.
They are too expensive and your correct, I don't find that they clean as well...sticking to my Arm & Hammer liquid detergent😅
I use Tru Earth detergent sheets. They do a really good job. They definitely get my clothes clean. I love them because of - no plastic bottle waste.
Have been using them for a year. It works wonderfully. Use Clean People. I have also used some off brand ones too. They do the job. Still spot clean with regular detergent.
Love laundry sheets
I have been using the eco sheets in my front loader for over a year and I love them!! Had no idea Dollar Tree sold them…I will purchase if my local store sells them!! They are great!!
I'm with you I can't use cheap laundry products my choice is Gain Flings with fabreeze the Fabreeze beads and Downey I like all of the Downy scents I prefer the newer ones though.
My daughter prefers Tide and uses the Bounce sheets. She love's the beads but she and I can't afford them all of the time, I use a smaller amount to stretch it cause I just love them.
Thank you for sharing! Many Blessings to you and your family!!
For my face I use Dove bar soup and Noxsema I've been using it my entire life and it's never failed me. I'm old too 😅 I use a moisturizer, and a serum I love Luna but it's so expensive I use different ones different times of the year
I tried them, I also add baking soda and vinegar and a few drops of natural essential oils in my washer, but I went back to detergent because the sheet got stuck on the inside of my washer and I almost couldn’t get it off. So I make my own with baking soda, vinegar and essential oils and my clothes are beautifully clean and smell amazing and I’m saving a lot of money 💰♥️🙏🏼♥️🥰♥️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️
Yes! I had the same issue, so started putting them in a bowl with water and pouring them in but thought WTF am I doing!? Back to pods I went.
U make your own detergent or is it an additive?? Would u share the recipe? 😊
Viv...I've been using laundry detergent sheets for more than a year. It's great! I just use another sheet when my clothes are more soiled...just like the liquid products. 😊
I use the arm & hammer sheets, love them, no heavy bottles to log home & throw away
I use the sheets but also use Seventh Generation Power Dose and Ever Spring Softener because they are Ulta concentrated and the bottles are very small so a little less waste. Many people don’t like makeup wipes because they are not sustainable. I agree with the double cleanse, but try a cleansing balm/oil, wipe it off with a wet makeup eraser cloth or any cloth. Then go in with your 2nd cleanser. No more waste, better for your skin! 😊
I love the Arm & Hammer sheets and have been using them for about 6 months. I have 2 elementary aged kids and a dog and feel like they work better than the pods!
I've been using laundry sheets for over 5 years now. I will never go back to regular laundry products. Never had any issues. They work great.
the cetaphil dupe wipes are great👍
I highly recommend dollar store sugar lip scrub and the lip oil. My FAVORITE items in dollar store. I got some for the girls at work. Oh and i bought the little silicone applicator. Not sure it that's what it's for but work GREAT with the scuba bc the end of applicator is bumpy. Lol😊
Have you tried the Bpure lotion it comes in hyaluronic acid B3, collagen anti aging, vitamin c, they all contain Niacinamide, the green and yellow bottle Will help skin bleaching skin whitening brightening

😊 I have used several different brands of the sheet detergent most work fine. Some ask for multiple sheets per load so always read the directions.
I've been using the laundry sheets from Earth Breeze for at least five years now, if not more. And I love them! They clean everything just fine. I have to use the scent free ones and my clothes don't stink at all, so I know it's working!
I use earth breeze too and love them! No heavy bottles to carry and store and no plastic waste. Cleans my clothes perfectly.
Same! We use them too.
Same here! We have allergies in the family, and regular detergent is horrible for us. Love our earth breeze!
Prang is a brand name!
Pretty sure you need to toss the shoes in a dryer for a few to heat set the ink
I’ve used the laundry sheets from a brand off Amazon. Since I have a huge washer, it takes about 3 sheets to do a big load. I didn’t like them, so, I just buy what’s on sale, whether it’s large bottles or the pods. 🤷 I know the sheets are designed to waste less plastic.
I LOVE the detergent sheets. Would not go back to the bottled stuff. I also like that it is fragrant free.
Vivian looks great! Has she ever mentioned how she’s lost weight??
SAME FOR ME TOO
Vicky's Secret mists and lotions used to smell good for SO much longer, back in the 90s. Literally, spray in the morning, and it would smell for hours. Not anymore...🤷🏻♀️
I use sheets from earth breeze, got tired of the large bottles at the grocery stores. I get a years worth at one time to my doorstep 👍🏾✌🏾
When I was a kid in elementary school, PRANG was a top dollar art supplies brand. They disappeared for awhile, I'm happy to see it coming back
I love the laundry sheets. Most people tend to use too much detergent, fabric softeners, etc. Over time, all of the products tend to build up on the clothes which makes it harder to get them clean and makes them dingy.
😂😂😂😂 *VICTORIAS SECRET USED TO BE HUGE EARLY 2000s*
The flowers in the lip balms are just there for looks. They are cute. I wonder if the flowers were sterilized before being used in the balms/glosses. We don't want to get Fungalitis from lip gloss.
I use the arm and hammer ones and I love it!! Our clothes are clean and we are using less plastic!!
Always glad that you try out the items on your channel. It educates us all. As other viewers have said PRANG is a name brand and a big one at that, your tested two name brands against each other, that’s great!
Vivian keep in mind laundry detergent is mostly water.
I love my detergent sheets!! I use the Temu ones to get the nasty fry oil smell out my daughter's work clothes.. and the arm and hammer for everyday..
My ex used to work in a restaurant. I used ammonia to get tha horrible smell out.
@@marysmith861my bf works at a factory that makes engine parts so he is covered head to toe with oil and the smell makes me want to vomit! I was curious if there was anything to help get the oil out of his work clothes.
I love when you talk about scents at the Dollar Tree - it cracks me up!
I love the echo sheets for the washer
I love your personality. Thank you for sharing your wisdom 👍
😢😊
Prang art supplies have been around for a very long time. We had Prang brand crayons in elementary school in the early 1970's.
Yes Grove sheets are great. We do not need tons of suds
The sheets work great. Used them for a few years.
Consumer reports doesn’t rate any laundry sheet well. We have pets and hubby and I do lots of cleaning yard work, and activities in this hot, humid climate so I won’t trust them until the technology improves. I like the idea, though !
They work so good. Liquid detergent is mostly water anyway.
I use the sheets like this and I love them. I usually use a half of one if it’s not too dirty. Then I use one. And no bulky bottles.
I love all your videos. You are so funny and very honest in your reviews of the products. Thank you for all you do. I really look out for all your videos.
I switched to the sheets I really like them, its basically the same soap but you're not paying for a bottle full of water mixed with it, its more concentrated
Girl got super slim. You look amazing Vivian.
Have used the Arm & Hammer and Earth Breeze. Clean clothes and no plastic. Also use 1/2 of an Aldi brand dryer sheets. Works as well as full sheet.
They do have the laundry sheets at Walmart I buy them there and I love them
I used those laundry sheets all through college! They work well, and some even have fabric softener built in.
