Mother Natures own laundry dettergent

[hedgewitch]

Do you want your laundry clean, soft and fresh naturally?

Use soapnuts!

Environmentally friendly, sustainably produced, bio-degradable and compostable!

Have you ever worried about how your chemical detergents are affecting the environment, but never found the alternatives satisfactory?

Soapnuts are the answer!

Soapnut shells are economical (from only 3 pence a wash compared to 25 pence for a standard non-bio)

They leave your laundry fresh, clean and soft eliminating the need for softeners.

Because they are natural and chemical free they are gentle on your skin and clothes. Suitable for sensitive skin, allergy and eczema sufferers.

Soft enough for your whole family.

Soapnuts grow (wild-crafted) on trees in India and Nepal; the shells contain Saponin a natural soap, the nuts inside are used in the pharmaceutical industry.

UK'ers can get a free sample here (http://www.inasoapnutshell.com/) just the price of a stamp

For the rest of the world looky here (http://www.gogreen.cellande.co.uk/shop/products/soapnuts/soapnuts.php)

They can be used for a multiple of purposes as well, not just cleaning laundry.

I got my free sample and I am SO impressed with them - I'm eagerly awaiting my order to arrive.

well that is just dandy! That is so awesome :) I've been using Allen's All natural for awhile now, it's the only HE rated natural detergent..

But these little buggers look great!

Seriously - these are the BEST thing ever!!
I'm hoping there will be a seed in my order and then I can grow my own soap nut tree.
How cool would that be!!
:hippie:

so cool!!!! you just leave them in the bag and wash?! How are your clothes when lined dried? softer? And do they smell like anything?


Im so tempted to try them!!!

You MUST try them - give 'em a go at least.
I LOVE them but I have heard people say that they're not that impressed.
My clothes dry soft enough for me and towels - well - I don't like soft towels, they never seem to get me dry.
For scent I put in a few drops of essential oil in the fabric softener drawer.
This week I are mostly using Patchouli - 'cos it helps keep the mossies away. But I've used vanilla and jasmine before as well. I want to get hold of some Geranium as I LOVE that smell.
