Add to: Wash cycle, with your detergent (½ cup)
Why it’s so trusted:
Balances water pH, helping detergent work more effectively
Lifts stubborn odors—sweat, smoke, kitchen splatters—without bleach
Softens hard water, so suds lather fully and rinse clean
Safe for colors, delicates, and whites alike
💡 For tough stains: Sprinkle a little directly on the spot, let sit 10 minutes, then wash.
(Grandma called this “giving the stain a moment to reconsider.”)
🧼 3. Washing Soda — The Steady Helper
Add to: Wash cycle (½ cup)
Why it’s worth knowing the difference:
(Note: This is not baking soda—it’s sodium carbonate, stronger and more alkaline. Look for Arm & Hammer Super Washing Soda near the laundry aisle.)
Softens water deeply—especially helpful in hard-water homes
Breaks down oils, grease, and body soil on towels, workwear, or baby clothes
Restores brightness to whites and grays that have lost their light
A quiet workhorse for heavy-use fabrics—no harshness, just honesty.
