What laundry detergent do you use???

[usnuzuloose]

I use Costco laundry soap.

I just made the switch to Tide PODS. Before that, I used liquid All.

 

[Meriweather]

All fragrance free (for now) and Bounce sheets....DD insists on All.
I usually use Kirkland pods

 

[fly girl]

All detergent, Snuggle fabric softner.

My neighbor always says she loves when I do laundry (her driveway is next to my dryer vent) and she loves the smell. Lol

 

[DisneyMomx7]

Tide pods and downy

Really, the BEST smelling detergent is Dreft. Just can't see the price tag now that I don't have a newborn.

All the Proctor & Gamble are essentially the same cleaning agents if they're the same type (power, liquid, HE). Dreft is pretty much the same. The main differences will be perfumes, brightness, or dyes. There's no particular reason why laundry detergent needs to be blue/purple. I prefer the fragrance/dye free versions, but my wife wants our laundry to have at least a mild perfume odor, but not heavy like Gain.

I used to use Tide with Febreeze until I read that fabric softeners and the chemicals in some detergents might not be so good for your skin. I switched to All Free and clear. It doesn't smell as good, but I feel better using it.

It's just the Dreft smell I love.

I cannot use Tide and that's a P&G product. I break out in a rash and so does my daughter. Must be the perfume or dye, idk.

Costco (Kirkland) brand. Works great.

 

[jennasmommyinMS]

I make my own, and I love it! This is the recipe I use: http://roseatwater.com/homemade-laundry-detergent/

It's just my daughter and me, so a batch lasts us almost 2 years. I'll never go back to buying the regular stuff!

It smells like baby wipes.

I prefer to use Tide Free, although it contains optical brighteners. There are minor differences, but the bulk of what cleans is surfactants and enzymes, which are pretty much the same. I looks like Dreft is pH balanced with sodium hydroxide (lye). There's always the chance that maybe one of these things causes reactions, but I don't know why Dreft is supposed to be any different. Here are the ingredient lists for Tide Free HE and Dreft HE.

Gain powder and Bounce dryer sheets for me.

 

[bsblady01]

I use Gain/ and gain dryer sheets

 

[Wendy31]

Tide Pods & Snuggle Fabric Softener.

Sometimes, I'll add some vinegar to the fabric softener.

 

[Dizlvr]

I use Sear's Ultra Plus and I make my own softener using VO5 shea cashmere conditioner. They each have a subtle smell that doesn't interfere with my perfume. I don't want to smell like laundry.

 

[Teresa Pitman]

Costco's Kirkland brand. Great price (especially when they have coupons) and works well. Tide gives me an unbearable rash. My skin also can't tolerate fabric softener or most scented detergents.

 

[Lintasare]

I use Arm & Hammer Free and Clear. Laundry soaps with dyes and fragrance make my skin itch. I also use unscented dryer sheets to prevent static.

 

[limabeanmom2003]

Just started buying Persil at Walmart. Love it! My clothes smell so nice and it cleans well.

 

[charming23]

I use The Honest Company detergent and dryer sheets. I have sensitive skin and these work great. My laundry always smells fresh, clean, and come out soft.
