    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.

    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.

    • @SophisticatedOrganization

    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?

    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.

    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!

    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 7 місяців тому

      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.

    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
      @veganconservative1109 10 місяців тому

      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.
