Indian Wash Nuts, Our Opinion on Their Use.
Conventional laundry detergents are often full of chemicals. In addition, they are expensive!
Have you heard of soapnuts, but have doubts about their effectiveness?
So, discover our opinion and arguments to help you choose.
Very useful fruits
First of all, know that soapnuts are the fruit of the Soap Tree and are widely used in India for washing delicate textiles.
The principle is therefore to replace your expensive laundry with these much more economical soap nuts. But what about the result and the cleanliness?
To be adapted according to the type of laundry
After more than 6 months of use, I must say that the results are largely positive, but it also depends on the type of laundry you want to clean.
- To wash clothes such as T-shirts, jeans or bath towels that are not no big spots, this is a solution that I highly recommend.
The clothes are clean, soft, odorless and fragrance free and the colors do not tarnish too much.
- For more soiled laundry with stains, the results are complicated.
There's no question of removing stains and keeping a crisp white cloth if you don't take some precautions.
The 1st is to use a stain remover for large stains before putting your clothes in the washing machine, otherwise there is little chance that they will disappear ...
And the 2nd is to add 3 tablespoons of baking soda for launder the laundry and thus avoid the grayness of white laundry.
Bonus
Last tip to have laundry that smells good, just add a few drops of essential oils on the wallet of the nuts.
The results are therefore largely positive even if it will take you longer than with a conventional laundry. But the game is well worth the candle!
Another benefit of soapnuts is that they not damage the fabrics which allows you to keep your clothes longer.
Savings made
For savings, soapnuts are a gold mine compared to conventional detergents.
By filling your little pouch with 5 walnut shell halves, you can wash without even adding fabric softener.
And if that weren't enough, soapnuts can also replace dishwasher tablets! A huge economy in perspective.
