Sometimes when out of powder I've used a couple of tablespoons of stardrops in the washing machine. This quantity didn't over-foam and everything came out clean.0

I use soapflakes in my washing machine occasionally - we live in a hard water area, however, so there is not much foam. (I used to buy them but now just grate a bar of soap with the cheesegrater)0

I'm amazed Sunlight Soap makes an appearance!
I have a couple of bars of this from when I worked for Lever Bros in Port Sunlight - never seen it since! Does anywhere sell this? I've been guarding my few bars viciously!
I just ordered 4 bars from Chemist Direct online, they sell it :j0
