An easy, natural DIY Laundry Washing Powder

Although I recommend using a warm/hot cycle, it's not impossible to use in a cold wash and many customer report that thats how they use it, which is great!

In this case, I recommend diluting it first with hot/boiling water. This may be a bit tricky for front loaders as the mixture will bubble up when diluted with hot water and may overflow in a compartment (think bicarb and vinegar vibes)

That said, if you’re using a top loader, there’s a little workaround: fill your machine with cold water first, then dissolve the powder in a big jug with boiling water and quickly pour it in - move fast!

It’s a bit of a hack, but it can get you there when a cold wash is a must.

For the best results, use our Laundry Washing Powder in warm to hot water. Heat acts as a natural sanitiser and activates the oxygen power within the sodium percarbonate, ensuring that your clothes not only come out clean but also free from harmful bacteria.

Tailor the amount of powder based on your load size. For a small load, approx. 1-2 tablespoons (30-40g) are recommended. When dealing with larger loads, consider adding an extra tablespoon for extra oomph.

Absolutely! I recommended to add your favourite essential oils (as long as you’re not sensitive to them, of course).

I love using eucalyptus, tea tree, or citrus blends in the wash cycle for the extra cleaning and deodorising benefits. For the rinse cycle, I usually go for something softer like lemongrass or lavender.

There are no rules here - go nuts and make it your own!

Even though this is handmade, it is powerful and not recommended on wool or on delicate items. For delicates, I simply dilute a dash of liquid Castile soap in warm water and wash that way.

I absolutely recommend using fabric softener - but not the toxic slimy store-bought type! Simply use citric acid or vinegar in your rinse cycle along with some essential oils if you desire.

This acidic rinse neutralises any left over soap residue that remains on clothes during the wash which causes it to be stiff. This way your clothes and towels come out soft and with the true smell of clean.

I can never suggest what is the best thing for your body, however with minimal ingredients and fragrance-free formula its potentially going to provide some benefits. I can say that over the years, many customers have reported that it works great for their sensitivities.

Its fine for septic tanks in terms of general cleaning, however do not use these products directly in the septic tank!

I would be wary using on greywater as these are alkali ingredients and I can't say with certainty that it wont harm your plants or greenery.
