Clean laundry and washing machine

Thanks to this preparation, the laundry will be soft, pleasant to the touch, fluffy and fragrant. This preparation simultaneously cleans the laundry and also the washing machine, which it frees of residues and, because of that, the laundry will be cleaner and more fragrant. 

If you use ordinary washing products, new laundry stays soft only for the first few washes, but then the material stiffens and hardens and our beloved new T-shirt no longer shines in our wardrobe. 

That’s why today we will tell you how to prepare at home a homemade fabric softener.

Homemade fabric softener and washing machine cleaner

This homemade softener is a kind of replacement for the classic fabric softener you buy in stores. The advantage of this homemade softener is that it also cleans your washing machine at the same time, thereby extending its lifespan. 

Moreover, this preparation is completely bio and therefore does not cause any skin irritation or allergic reactions like similar chemical products that we can buy in stores.

If you start using this preparation, you’ll find that the washing machine is also cleaner, odor-free and the limescale has disappeared. 

What will you need?

  • 150 – 200 ml hot water
  • 20 drops of essential oil – choose your favorite scent
  • Plastic container for the preparation
  • 10g baking soda
  • 800 ml – apple cider vinegar

How to do it?

Prepare a plastic container and pour hot water into it. 
Then add the baking soda to the water and pour in the apple cider vinegar.
Stir the mixture and wait until it stops forming bubbles.
Once the bubbles subside, add the essential oil to the mixture, close the container and mix.

Usage

You can use this preparation in the same way as a classic fabric softener. 
The preparation softens the water and thus softens the laundry and cleans the washing machine.
You will notice the most pronounced change on towels right after the first wash.
