Soap Nuts
What if we told you that something completely natural could get your clothes every bit as clean as washing powder? Well, soap really does grow on trees – the soap nut tree (of course!) in India, whose shells contain Mother Nature’s detergent, called saponin.
For an eco-friendly, chemical-free approach to laundry day, pop a few reusable Soap Nuts into the machine, where they will produce loads of soapy suds, to leave garments soft and clean.
Our Testing Team were truly amazed, and what’s more Soap Nuts are gentle on colours; sensitive skin; your purse – cutting laundry bills by up to half – and the environment (being biodegradable, you can even put them on your compost heap when spent).
You’d be nuts not to try them!

Got my free sample this morning so 8 1/2's in washing machine with a cap of vinegar for conditioner and 2 1/2 shells in dishwasher. Am washing on standard wash but ideally want to start doing 30 degree wash and quick cycle on dishwasher. Do you think the soapnuts will still clean as well???DFW since JAN 2009 - 2014 will be the year i finally clear debts
Just to see which month
