I washed a few loads to test it out, and it seemed to get the job done. Just a few simple ingredients, stir them all up, and you’re on your way to the cheapest, non-toxic homemade laundry soap you’ll ever find. 😉Įither way, I knew one thing, and I knew it well – when the time came to wash the baby’s new clothes, I was NOT using the same conventional laundry detergent ( cough – Tide® – cough) I’d been using since well…pretty much as long as I can remember.Īnd by that time I was on a small DIY-kick with my homemade non-toxic deodorant, so I was already feeling up to the challenge of making homemade laundry soap. Yes, I know I was being a little over-dramatic, but I’ll just blame that on the pregnancy hormones. And I couldn’t touch, let alone breathe in, any of the chemicals that were now taking over my house! Every bite of food, every bath product, every cleaning product…Īll of a sudden, my whole house seemed like a toxic no-go zone. I realized right at that moment that everything I put in, on, or near my body would affect this precious new baby growing inside of me. I was over the moon excited!īut after the initial shock and thrill calmed down, things got real. I still remember being pregnant with my first baby. These are great tips, and if they work for you, awesome! Or even dissolving the powder version in some boiling water first before adding it to your washer. One last thing – several readers have mentioned that the liquid version is better than the powder version because it doesn’t cause build up. But this post is meant to share my personal experience, in case it’s helpful for anyone who has had similar issues.
I know many people who are still using – and loving! – their homemade laundry soap, which is awesome. It’s jam-packed with information about this homemade laundry soap issue, so grab a cup of your favourite beverage, get comfortable, and join me for this in-depth discussion…Īlso – please note: This is just my experience with this issue. NOTE: Just a little forewarning that this is a pretty long post – one of my longest, actually.
