Giveaway: Nellie’s All Natural Laundry Soda*

Being a long-time fan of Nellie’s All Natural Laundry Soda, I am excited to have the opportunity to introduce this product to one of my readers. In fact, it’s the #1 detergent I recommend to friends with environmental sensitivities, small children, or washing cloth diapers!

I prefer detergents with a short list of ingredients that work easily in my HE front-loading washer without any extra steps, such as first dissolving the powder in warm water.  Nellie’s All Natural Laundry Soda is the only powder I’ve used in my washer that hasn’t resulted in caked detergent on freshly-washed clothing. It dissolves quickly and rinses extremely well.

Let’s Talk Inserts..

I frequently tell people that the first thing I do when I get a new pocket diaper is ditch the microfiber insert. In addition to being prone to odor issues, they just don’t seem as absorbent as other options. I prefer AMP bamboo or infant prefolds for daytime, and AMP hemp inserts for overnight use.
