7 laundry tips from the experts
Mar 31, 2023
From Nellie’s, a Canadian, planet-friendly brand of laundry products (and so much more) that has produced eco-friendly laundry and cleaning products for almost 20 years.
Laundry is something we can’t avoid, and some of us do it every day. Even if you are a pro, Nellie’s Clean has the best laundry routine to do the job efficiently. Trust Nellie’s for simple, planet-friendly products that actually work!
These seven tips will help you get the best laundry results
1. Choose the right wash temperature
To save energy, wash in cold water (or warm water if fabrics are extra soiled). Nellie’s Laundry Soda dissolves in cold and warm water, and its powder formula packs more power than liquid detergents.
2. Choose the right detergent
Not all laundry soaps are created equal. When choosing a laundry soap, choose eco-friendly, hypoallergenic and effective formulas. Nellie’s Laundry Soda ticks all the right boxes!
3. Use the correct amount of detergent
Giant boxes and jugs with giant scoops have convinced customers that more is better. Nellie’s Laundry Soda is super concentrated, so one tablespoon is all that’s needed for a regular-sized load. Next time you shop, check out the cost per load. Most leading brand detergents are made up of 70% filler or water to make you think you are getting more for your money.
4. Remove stains as they happen
The key to successful stain removal is acting fast! Keep a Nellie’s WOW Stick handy to treat stains as they happen. Rinse right away or treat and wash when doing your next load. The natural combination of sweet orange oil and lemongrass has proven to work better than most stain removers on the market. Hence the WOW in its name.
5. Brighten whites and colours naturally
If whites are looking lacklustre, don’t use a chemical bleach that can damage clothes and irritate the skin, choose an option like Nellie’s Oxygen Brightener. This wonder product can brighten whites, reduce odour and is even safe for colours. Heck, just put 1 to 2 scoops in with every load!
6. Avoid toxic dryer sheets
Avoid using chemical dryer sheets and fabric softeners. Instead, choose Dryerballs. Adding 3 to 6 Flyerballs or Lamby Wool Dryerballs in the dryer will last over two years—saving you time, money and the planet. Dryerballs lift and separate fabrics to create airflow and prevent synthetics and natural fibres from sticking together. The natural wool softens fibres naturally.
7. Reduce wrinkles
Using Dryerballs will significantly reduce wrinkles, but for those fabrics that need a little extra wrinkle reduction, use Nellie’s Wrinkle-B-Gone after clothes are dry—or on the go! Just shake, spray, smooth and snap wrinkles away.
