When using store bought mass produced products including laundry detergent you are more susceptible to being exposed to ingredients that are not helpful to our skin. When using Laundry powder from Wildflower Enchanted you have a full ingredient list from each product used, not a blanket list. Our laundry detergent powder has only 3 products used in it. We use borax, washing soda and Castile soap to a 1:1 ratio.
Homemade laundry detergent powder crafted from dye-free Manuka honey Castile soap, borax, and washing soda offers several benefits:
1. Gentle on Skin: Manuka honey Castile soap is known for its mild and moisturizing properties, making the detergent suitable for those with sensitive skin.
2. Natural Ingredients: The combination of manuka honey, borax, and washing soda provides a natural and chemical-free alternative, minimizing exposure to harsh additives found in commercial detergents.
3. Dye-Free Formula: Eliminating dyes reduces the risk of skin irritation and is a great choice for individuals with allergies or sensitivities to artificial colors.
4. Environmentally Friendly: Homemade detergents often use ingredients that are eco-friendly, contributing to a more sustainable lifestyle compared to some commercial options that may contain harmful chemicals.
5. Cost-Effective: Making your detergent at home can be cost-effective, especially when using simple, readily available ingredients like borax and washing soda.
6. Customizable Fragrance: You have the flexibility to add natural scents if desired, offering a personalized touch to your laundry routine.
7. Effective Cleaning: When properly formulated, this combination of ingredients can effectively clean clothes, removing stains and odors.
Remember to follow proper measurements and guidelines to ensure your homemade detergent is effective and safe for use.
