Let’s be real, laundry night can get gross, but that doesn’t mean it has to be difficult. There are so many different types of fabrics, skin allergies and even baby-friendly options to consider, which can make our regime seem a bit overwhelming. Not all detergents are created equal, and whether you’re a mom battling stains on your kids’ spring jerseys or the proud parent of a newborn, there are so many types of detergents out there, so how do you pick the right one?
Gentle laundry detergent options are a personal favorite of mine, as they help preserve the life of delicate clothing and are also free of some of the chemical substances in traditional detergents that can irritate your skin. So to make laundry night a little easier on you, I compiled a list of my favorite gentle laundry detergents and the best way to use them.
Soak Wash
Soak is a Toronto-based, eco-friendly brand with a modern approach to doing laundry, creating a no-rinse cleaning solution that makes cleaning your favorite lingerie or sweaty gym clothes as easy as soaking and squeezing. No machine necessary.
Charlie’s Soap
Charlie’s Soap is another eco-friendly option to add to your detergent rotation, and a personal favorite of mine. They offer both liquid and powder detergent options, which they guarantee will remove almost any type of stain. This is the perfect scent-free detergent option, and it can be used on any type of fabric.
Dreft
If you’re the parent of a newborn child, I highly recommend you try Dreft Stage 1: Newborn Liquid Detergent. Rated as one of the best detergents to use for your baby, this product was created to be gentle on newborn skin while being tough on all the gross stains. You can’t ask for anything better.
Mrs. Meyer’s
Mrs. Meyer’s is probably a brand you’ve seen taking over the shelves at your local grocery store, and rightfully so. The entire line of household products, including the laundry range, is made of natural ingredients like essential oils and herbs.
