Sweet smelling laundry

Biokleen is a great laundry detergent option -- it's packaged in recycled paper cardboard.

All Biokleen products are free of chlorine, optical brighteners, and phosphates. The surfactants used in Biokleen products are vegetable-based -- they do NOT use Sodium Laurel or Sodium Laureth Sulfate surfactants (SLS/SLES). SLS/SLES often act as skin irritants for many people and are generally a good thing to avoid.

Even better - all their products do not use any animal ingredients or animal testing.

To get the most out of this soap, I recommend putting it in the machine first, running the water a few minutes and then swirling it around with your hand or a laundry item to dissolve the soap better. It does have a tendency to clump and streak clothing if put on top of the clothing.

This soap smells really great -- it is tied right up there with lavender as my favorite laundry detergent scent.

The downside is that it costs a bit more per wash than other powdered soaps.

Bi-O-Kleen

Bi-O-Kleen is a Grapefruit seed and orange peel extract based laundry powder with Chlorine-free bleach. This product has worked really well for us. I am a plumbing contractor, so you can imagine what my clothes look and smell like when I get home. Bi-O-Kleen gets the clothes clean and leaves a nice natural, but subtle fragrance. They also make fragrance free detergent and a whole host of other non-toxic plant-based cleaning agents. Check them out on the web http://www.bi-o-kleen.com
