SoapNuts Review

I stumbled upon the SoapNut website and could not believe my eyes. Nuts!? To wash your clothes with!? What!? I honestly did not believe what was before my eyes.
SoapNuts are actually the fruit of a tree! They are 100% natural which makes them a great alternative to the laundry detergents we use everyday. Now I know you are thinking how do they clean my clothes? Well, the nuts outer shell contains saponin. And saponin has the ability to clean and wash. How cool is that?
Recently I got to give SoapNuts a try. As soon as I opened up the box I saw this cute little bag that contained the SoapNuts. I opened it up and there the little beauties where. The SoapNuts have a very different smell to them. Which I am not going to lie, I was a little worried about. On the website they do admit that the SoapNuts have an odd smell. So I went ahead and washed a load of towels with them.
You know that cute little bag that held the SoapNuts? You know, the one that I thought was used purely for decoration? Well, that is actually what you put the SoapNuts in when you wash. You put 3-5 of them in there. Toss it in the washing machine and that's all. You do have to have the water temperature set on warm or hot for the saponin to release. If you want to wash in cold water you can make SoapNut Soak to take care of that.
When the washing machine was done I ran to it eagerly to see if our towels smelled. While they did smell a little bit like the odd odor. I went ahead and threw them in the dryer. When the timer went off I ran in there and pulled the towels out. No Smell At All! Just fresh clean laundry. Hooray! Yes, I was a skeptic at first. But, now I am a believer.
For all those people that want their clothes to have a fragrance to them. They have essential oils you can add to the bags. The Citrus Mist oil sounds wonderful!
SoapNuts are great for babies and people who have sensitive skin and allergies.
