Nellie’s All Natural Super Clean Laundry Nuggets
June 11th, 2008
Get Your Clothes Squeaky Clean Naturally!
Traditional laundry detergents use scent to mask odors rather than remove them. Many people associate the fresh smell of scented products with cleanliness. Traditional soaps will clean and scent the surface but may not actually penetrate the material. Once the fragrance from the detergent dissipates, the musty smell may return.
Nellie’s laundry soda is unscented and designed to penetrate the fabric as well as remove the odors, not mask them. Nellie’s rinses clear and leaves no residue.
If you would like your laundry to have a scent, consider a natural linen spray or a lavender pouch that can be placed in the dryer.
What’s In It?
SODA ASH - (SODIUM CARBONATE) also known as washing soda. In domestic use, it’s used as a water softener during laundry.
SODIUM METASILICATE - A major use is as a builder (a material that enhances or maintains the cleaning efficiency of a surfactant, principally by inactivating water hardness) in soaps and detergents
SODIUM CHLORIDE - Sodium chloride, also known as common salt, table salt, or halite. As well as the familiar uses of salt in cooking, salt is used in many applications, from manufacturing pulp and paper to setting dyes in textiles and fabric, to producing soaps and detergents.
CITRIC ACID - This is a weak organic acid. It serves as an environmentally benign cleaning agent and acts as an antioxidant.
The Detergent is Sodium Lauryl Ether Sulphate. It is a coconut based (LAURYL) Ethoxylated fatty alcohol. Coconut oil on its own will wash nothing. It is therefore chemically modified so that it becomes surface active and thus performs like a detergent. This commodity is widely used by many detergent manufacturers because it is readily biodegradable, non toxic and mild and efficient. It is also NOT Petroleum based.
Delighted Customers Have this to Say…
I’ve been using the Nellie Dryer Balls and they are really making a difference in how my clothes turn out. I’m looking forward to trying these especially since I’m trying to go green for all my household cleaning products. Cara
I love that these are pre-measured out for me. I have been known to over pour the detergent before and this is a big help. Kate

Love the idead, but wondering if it’s 1 nugget = 1 load whether you’ve got a front-loading vs. top loading machine. Usually you use less detergent for front-loading which is what we have. Thanks.

is this color-safe?

Good questions! Nellie’s Laundry Nuggets are safe for front loading, High Efficiency, and Standard washing machines. It is especially good for babies clothes and individuals with allergies and sensitive skin. It doesn’t list it as being “color-safe” but my guess is that it is given that it is safe for babies clothes and sensitive skin.
