Liquid detergents are made up largely of water. At Nellie’s, we don’t think selling and moving water around the planet is a very good idea. The fact is, more cleaning power can be packed into a smaller space using powder.
Laundry Soda is our all-purpose formula for everyday laundry, while Baby Laundry Soda is extra gentle with added natural brightening. Perfect for baby clothes, diapers, sensitive fabrics and baby messes.
The recommended use is 1 tablespoon for each medium/regular load, which equals to about 6 lbs of laundry. If you have an HE machine, a large load is approximately 11 lbs. In this case, you can use 1 ½ - 2 tablespoons. The important thing to remember is that while the scoop size looks small, it’s strongly concentrated and powerful!
Nope! The date that you see on the packaging is the manufactured date. There are no ingredients in our laundry powders that will expire. We recommend storing in a cool, dry place when not in use.
Yes, all of our products are cruelty-free. We do not test on animals, and we ensure that our suppliers adhere to the same ethical standards.
No. Both Nellie’s Laundry Soda and Baby Laundry Soda are coconut-free. The plant-based surfactant in our Laundry Soda is derived from RSPO-certified palm and palm kernel oil, not coconut. Baby Laundry Soda also contains a vegetable soap base and sodium percarbonate for natural brightening. If you have a coconut allergy or sensitivity, our formulas do not include coconut-derived ingredients, but we always recommend checking with your healthcare provider before trying a new product.
Our Laundry Soda is hypoallergenic and does not contain any harsh chemicals. It is safe to wash most everyday materials, but we always recommend referring to the suggested washing instructions on the clothing label and testing on a small inconspicuous area first.
Our Laundry Soda has a small amount of water softener added in! If you live in an area with very hard water, you may need an additional water softening agent added to your laundry.
Our Laundry Soda has a PH balance of 10.5-11.9.
