I saw another video where they used the dollar store laundry soap and they added some liquid fabric softener to the container shook it up and theres your scent!

You are CORRECT; it is NOT all about the Suds. Laundry Detergent does NOT work like bath soap. Laundry Detergent is designed too pick up contaminants from your clothes and "HOLD" them in Suspension. (i.e. Meaning in the Water) Laundry Detergent is INDEED "More Similar" too Motor Oil; then it is too Bath Soap. Engine Oil is also designed to hold engine contaminants in suspension. This is why changing your Oil is Important. This is the reason why it does NOT have to "Suds UP" and Will STILL Work Just Fine!~

I've been making my own detergent lately and although it's an extra chore to do, it is certainly worth it. It doesn't suds up much, but I read that the suds are actually harder on your laundry, in that it doesn't really all rinse out and stays in your clothing and can wear out the fibers quicker than if you used some with a less sudsy detergent. It would be hard to pass up for $1. for sure and I may get some for my towels and other little area rugs and that sort of thing. Thanks for vlogging on this.

I made my detergent for a while but noticed it turned my clothes grey with residue. You may not have hard water like me, but pay attention to your clothes to make sure your homemade detergent isn’t leaving a residue. Detergent is sometimes necessary for that. If it is, just wash once a week with this stuff to keep the residue away. Or add a tablespoon of it to your laundry along with the your homemade laundry soap!

Or try the orange bottle that is much better but I only use the Save a Lot brand as it is the same as Tide and smells just like it too it also has 64 loads and is $7.00 a bottle. I am a loyal user of this stuff and I also add half a cap of Great Value Color Safe Bleach. My clothes come out smelling clean and the smell lasts for days. It also gets out funky man smells too. I have even put some of this detergent in my roommate's Tide bottle so she would try it and she could not tell the difference and has even switched. This stuff also produces lots of suds when it is washing and it is well worth the try.

Okay, after watching the video and reading through all of the comments here, I am going to pick up one bottle and give it a try. I am a HUGE laundry soap snob. Gain Original is my favorite scent but Tide with Bleach is my favorite as far as cleaning power. I am a HUGE fan of heavily scented laundry soaps, sprinkles, Downy, and I always, always use three Bounce Outdoor Fresh dryer sheets in every load. I cannot, CANNOT, stand static cling! I live in west Texas, smack dab in the middle of the oilfield and things tend to get greasy like mad. I used to do admin work in a couple of offices around here and the oilfield guys swear by "Foca" laundry powder for getting those stains out. I tend to get little splatters on my shirts when I'm cooking anything with grease, oil or butter - it always finds a way onto my clothes, never fails. I tried adding a cup of Foca powder (purchased at Sam's and/or Germ-Mart (Walmart) and it has been fantastic at getting the splatters out of my shirts. I also hang all of my shirts to dry and love the way they smell up room while hanging there. Anyway, back on track here... I'm going to grab a bottle of one of the LA Awesome Laundry Detergents - not sure which one as I will have to smell them all before I decide to throw one in my basket - and will try it. I will try it alone, first with only Bounce in the dryer. I will wash Nala's (my spoiled fur-kid) blankets and see how they come out smelling. I wash her stuff regularly so it's not like they smell like dog or anything. If her stuff comes out smelling great, I'll try it on towels next. I may have to do as another poster has suggested - in adding either downy or whatever - maybe scent boosting beads to the laundry soap to give it a scent boost - if it's a sufficient cleaner, in my eyes. I completely agree about suds! Our minds equate suds with clean - when I see detergent that doesn't sud up well, I don't feel it cleans as well and tend to add more detergent than I should use to try to boost the cleaning power (in my mind). =)

I know this is an older video but almost always you can find Ajax laundry detergent (and dishwashing soap) at the Dollar Tree , However less suds means your clothes will be a lot cleaner, especially with towels, the more suds you've got the more it gets into the clothes and leaves a layer of soap scum that you don't see or feel but it's there

I used to buy the purple bottle because it had softener in it. It was the best now it's hard to find.

I've found that everything I've ever tried from the L.A.'s Awesome brand works well. However, I've never tried their laundry detergent . . I'm a Tide user . . but I'm going to give this a whirl!

Ive been using LA laundry detergent for years and its great. Hate to think about all the money I've spent on those higher end brands like Tide and what not. LA is cheap and it gets the job done thats all i care about.

They have the xtra detergent for like $2 and some change at Walmart. The size that's on your dryer in the back. Or the huge one for 7 I think. I'm a sucker when it comes to detergent and always go back to tide(not a fan of the gain smell) but for inexpensive detergents I love all free and clear and then Purex baby. I've only found it at Walmart and it is soooo good. It does not smell like baby powder or anything it's a very clean great smell for the whole family. I love it

Im not a big fan of the xtra, it doesn't suds well but it gets the job done. I use to be a gain girl all the way but these days my skin don't like those heavy scented ones.
@chandler9077 жыл бұрын
I am the same way I'm not a fan of xtra either but my mom uses it and she loves it. What I absolutely love is the fabric softener called suavitel. You can get it at Walmart in the blue bottle. It is heaven on earth!! Seriously! And it's so cheap. They have a yellow bottle too but the blue is my fav

I used to swear by the suds too, then in 2015 I got a HE washer. It's a good trade off, because the HE washers do get your clothes cleaner. I usually buy Tide for clothes, and Arm & Hammer for sheets, towels, and my dog's bedding. The LA Totally Awesome oxi booster for laundry does work well though.

Picked up some of the laundry detergent today, got two different scents, used the lavender one with the softener, it worked well, I washed a load of towels, bathroom and kitchen. Also picked up some spray cleanser, it worked well too. Cleaned my stove, it was loaded with bacon grease.

I have been using this detergent for a while and it cleans my clothes well but today I noticed a dark sediment in the bottom of the bottle..It was the last bit of detergent in the bottle so I opened a new bottle and looked inside of it and sure enough this dark sediment was in the bottom of the new bottle too. has anyone else had this problem and what is it ??

@nathanielteeple13536 жыл бұрын
Hollytwopointoh would not be good for HE- HE detergents have low sudsing formula on purpose because of the less water used in these machines. Suds are not indicative of how well something cleans it’s more of a psychological thing for people like the lady who made this video.

Hollytwopointoh they have an LA's Totally Awesome laundry detergent for HE machines. I think it's in a green or blue container. I'm going to buy some after watching this video. I've tried their fabric softener in the blue bottle and it worked well.

I bought the same colored detergent and it was yellow not clear like this video and it stanked, I had to throw that detergent out. I'm never buying at that dollar tree location ever again they we're so unclean you could see webs in each corner of the store and dust on their kitchenware. I'll go to the one that's 2 miles down from that one even tho it's smaller.

If this soap does suds up, it is not advisable to use it in a high efficiency machine period that is why the newer detergents do not suds up. They are not supposed to.
