Soapnuts are the ONLY organic detergent that grows on trees! It simply doesn't get greener than this! 

Soapnuts are highly valued by the rural people of India for washing clothes and as a naturally produced shampoo for washing their hair and for getting rid of dandruff. This is why some botanists have named the species as Sapindus detergens.

Soapnuts are highly-effective and gentle at the same time. It will leave your laundry fresh and clean and compared to other powder detergents, its mildness will keep colours bright, maintaining fabric structure of your clothes for longer periods. It can be used on all fabrics and at all temperatures from 30. C - 90. C. Great for all washing machines especially energy efficient machines & great for all allergy sufferers.

Inside the bag there will be a mixed of whole and broken shells. This does not affect the efficacy of the soapnuts. There also may be variation of colours due to the time the soapnuts were harvested, which also doesn't affect their efficacy.

2. Place washbag into drum of washing machine with clothes.

3. Wash clothes as directed by fabric care instructions.

4. Save used shells, and reuse up to four more times.

5. Soapnuts are fragrance free, to add fragrance to your laundry add 15 - 30 drops of (your favourite) essential oil onto the muslin wash bag before washing.  Alternatively, you can use linen water after washing.

 

TOP TIPS:

For heavily soiled clothes / hard water you can use 6-8 shells or 2 cups of Homemade Soapnut liquid (instructions for this are included with the soapnuts).

For slightly soiled clothes / soft water you can use 3 -5 shells or 1 cup of Homemade Soapnut liquid (instructions included)

You can presoak your soapnuts for a few minutes to activate the soap before putting them into the washing machine drum.

To treat stains during wash add 2 tablespoons of Bicarbonate of soda or soda crystals into washing  machine drawer.  You can also add 2 tablespoons of white vinegar into the drawer with soda/ bicarb to make your own oxygenated cleaner.

To treat stains before wash use the Natural Stain Remover Bar (we sell this too) and / or pre soak in cold water.

Why was Living Naturally founded?

Living Naturally is a family business in the UK.   In a bid to live more simply after their children were diagnosed with eczema and autism, the founders were introduced to Soapnuts as a possible solution for eczema by a few family members, and began using them to clean everything in the house. When they saw the eczema getting better they realised how amazing these ancient soapy fruits were!

Living Naturally was soon founded and they started selling soapnuts in 2009.  Since then a wide-range of award-winning vegan soapnut product lines have been developed, which are produced by this family-owned business based in the UK.
