Fabric Softener

Mothers and fathers of the world, AWAKEN to the toxicity of your laundry products! Standard, supermarket, fabric softeners are amongst the most toxic of household products on the market. They contain a host of chemicals including, benzyl acetate, benzyl alcohol, A-Terpineol, ethyl acetate, chloroform and pentane. These have been linked to cancer, nerotoxicity, central nervous system disorders and respiratory oedema.The real smell of these chemicals is a pungent odour, so to mask that, manufactuers add a highly concentrated cocktail of synthetic fragrances. These perfumes are described as 'mountain fresh' 'sea breeze', 'apple fresh' and so on, yet they couldn't be further from nature! Their scent is designed to 'hang around' long after washing and often contain pthalates. So they are continually inhaled through the respiratory system when smelling clothing and absorbed through the skin when wearing the clothing. Fabric softeners impregnanted into dryer sheets are also highly toxic... continue reading

Most laundry detergents contain harsh chemicals with optical brighteners, bleaches, synthetic fragrances and colours. They are products we are exposed to every day, as these fragrances, (which may contain up to 100 different chemicals), 'hang around' on clothing and we inhale them long after washing. They play havoc with our skin, our hormones and our waterways. Make healthier choices for your laundries by saying NO to these products and replacing them with plant based formulas using the cleaning power of plant extracts and the perfume of pure essential oils. They are so biodegradable and safe for our environment, that the grey water can be used directly on your garden. Now that's proof of their purity!
