    I don't add the baking soda. I just use essential oils, that are for candle making and epsom salts. Easy! I also don't measure anything. I add the oils until I like the scent I get. lol

      Not sure if you live in a hard water area, but do be careful if so - magnesium sulfate (ES) will make your water even harder and potentially ruin your washing machine... If you're in a soft water area, then fill your boots of course!

    Hello I'm getting into making my own laundry detergent and just started using scent boosters. How many spoons do I put in each load? Thanks for this recipe

    • @WisdomPreserved
      @WisdomPreserved  2 роки тому +1

      Welcome to making your own laundry products. I am sure the more and more you get into this the more you will love using homemade soaps. For the sent booster I use anywhere from 1 Tablespoon to 1/4 cup depending on how strong I want the scent. I generally use less on my white clothes but a little more on towels and linens that are used more than once or twice and bulky items (like my husband's work clothes).

    • @WisdomPreserved
      @WisdomPreserved  2 роки тому +6

      Because my washing machine does not start until I close the lid and it locks immediately I put things into the wash as follows: I load in my clothes, throw in my soap, scent booster, and anything else I may be adding. I have never had this bleach or stain my clothing. I generally use warm or hot water. If I am washing with cold water I like to grab a little bit of water and dissolve the scent booster in it before adding it to the wash.

    Does this also soften clothes? Or do you have any fabric softener recipes?

    • @WisdomPreserved
      @WisdomPreserved  2 роки тому

      Because we use Epsom salts instead of regular salt this does not soften your clothes, but just change to regular ole' salt and viola your clothes will be softer. The Baking Soda does well as a fabric softener, as does vinegar. I to make a fabric softener instead of a scent booster I would replace Epsom Salts for regular salt, and then add a cup of vinegar to the wash.

    Hi there! I tried your recipe with the scent booster and used it by adding it to the drum. Unfortunately, my laundry didn't hold the scent of the fragrance oil that I used. May I know what I did wrong or what i can do to improve on my scent booster?

    • @WisdomPreserved
      @WisdomPreserved  Рік тому +1

      I have noticed that some of the more subtle oil scents don't hold as well as the stronger ones. What scent did you use? You may want to add additional drops of scent when making it, or add a little more to your wash. Also, I have also noticed that the heavier clothes sometimes don't hold the scent as well. For instance jeans. I add a little extra to those wash loads.

    • @WisdomPreserved
      @WisdomPreserved  2 роки тому +3

      In my experience the scent of essential oils dilute drastically in the wash, but yes, I can still smell them. I like to put scents (the same ones) in both my laundry soap as well as the scent booster. Between the two my clothes smell fresh, even if not exactly like the original scent. I have a new laundry detergent recipe I have been testing and it seems to be keeping the scent a lot more, but I am mixing it with glycerin before adding it to the soap. I am not sure why, but it seems to hold the scent better.

      @WisdomPreserved  3 роки тому +1

      Epsom salt is either made in a factory by mixing magnesium and sulfur compounds or naturally occuring. It can get tainted by machinery and human contamination. If it is food grade it has to pass more quality controls making it ideal for home use.
