Fairy Non Bio Fabric Conditioner, 2.90 Litre

Product Information

I have tried to be more environmentally friendly for a few years, but it’s not always possible. I use Method washing liquid, fabric softener and cleaning products.” (Brand recommended by Mumsnetter Raisinandcheese) Our verdict These pods don’t contain any of the biological enzymes that make up many other detergents. Instead, they are made without any harsh chemicals and are much less likely to cause irritation. Kids love to get messy, which means your washing machine is always on the go. For extra cleaning power AND a just-washed smell with added freshness, Fairy has just the solution … Fairy Non Bio Platinum PODS® and Fairy Fresh Fabric Softener

Ecozone's vegan-friendly and cruelty-free fabric conditioner is the perfect eco-friendly alternative, much like the best rotary washing lines and a set of clothes pegs are to tumble dryers. It is free from synthetic dyes, petrochemicals and tallow, which is rendered animal fat. Ecozone’s brand focuses on using only natural plant extract ingredients in their products, which means you can feel good about yourself whilst keeping the fibres of your clothes feeling smooth and soft.The reason that there is no fabric softener in Fairy’s Non-Bio Pods is because fabric softeners can cause all types of allergic reactions from our skin. Everyone has very different skin and some skin types are more sensitive and may have an intense reaction to fabric softener.

Isn’t it remarkable just how much washing you do in a week? A never-ending pile of dirty clothes is a familiar scene for most parents. That’s why the best fabric conditioner can be an essential addition to your family’s laundry load. I find the same, and I've had many washing machines over the years. I can smell [the fabric softener] when I bring the wet clothes out of the machine, but once they are dry, I don't smell anything. Then I tried Lenor Burst of Sunshine. It has a lovely scent that lasts for ages.” (Loved by Mumsnet user PivotPivotPivottt) Our verdict

What happens when you use too much fabric softener?

Lenor gold orchid here too. I've had guests ask me for the name of it as they think it smells so good."(Recommended by Mumsnetter Bakingdiva) Our verdict The best fabric softener to buy is the Fairy Fabric Softener. Safe for the whole family, it’s hypoallergenic and has been dermatologically tested, which means it shouldn't irritate your skin. It also keeps your clothes feeling soft and smelling fresh for days. Let’s get one thing out of the way first: fabric softeners, fabric conditioners and fabric enhancers are all the same, and they're essential to use if you want to get more freshness or softness into your clothes.

Just remember that these won't improve the smell of your laundry; they just help to soften the fibres!

However, some fabric softeners contain ingredients that can cause more problems than they solve. With Lenor's Burst of Sunshine Fabric Conditioner, you can breathe in the fresh scent of summer, no matter the season. When you use this fabric softener, all your clothes, bed sheets, and towels can enjoy the soft freshness and warm fragrances of linden blossom and calendula flowers with subtle notes of amber and Siam wood for up to a week.
