💧 4. Washing Soda or Borax – Heavy-Duty Boosters
For tough loads (gym clothes, workwear, kids’ clothes), these old-school laundry boosters are still powerful:
- Washing soda helps soften hard water and break down grease
- Borax boosts stain removal and deodorizes
- Use about ¼ cup per load
🌀 5. Don’t Forget to Clean the Washer!
Even the cleanest detergent can leave behind gunk. Once a month:
- Run an empty hot cycle with 1 cup of vinegar and ½ cup baking soda
- Wipe down the seals and detergent drawer
- This keeps your machine (and your clothes!) truly clean
Final Thoughts: Level Up Your Laundry Game
So next time you’re tossing a load in the washer, don’t stop at detergent. A few simple additions — like vinegar, baking soda, or essential oils — can make a huge difference in how your clothes look, feel, and smell.
Give it a try and experience fresher, softer, and longer-lasting laundry — with fewer chemicals and better results. Your clothes (and your nose) will thank you. 👕✨
