My Laundry is Rockin’ Green

anotherscoop1 Since today is laundry day at the Eco Chic household it’s only fitting that I write a post about Rockin’ Green Soap. Washing cloth diapers is probably one of the most intimidating elements of using cloth. The manufactures are very specific about what NOT to use when washing their diapers and what will void their warranties. What they don’t always tell you is exactly what you CAN use. Since I primarily use Bum Genius I’ll use them as an example. The manufacturer recommendations say to use a detergent that is free of dyes, enzymes, perfumes, whiteners and brighteners. Hmmm….

You can understand why I was so excited to find a detergent formulated specifically for cloth diapers! Rockin’ Green Soap meets all of the manufactures recommendations AND MORE! Rockin’ Green is vegan so even my best friend can use it to wash her clothes ! Rockin’ Green is phosphate free which makes it…well….GREEN! Green as in eco-friendly, since phosphates can add unwanted nutrients back into our streams and waterways which can affect the wildlife. (I actually studied this stuff in college!)

Oh yeah, and remember that I live in Florida…well we have HARD water! It’s terrible and we have never purchased a water softener. Hard water can leave terrible buildup of minerals in your clothing that you can’t see. This buildup can cause cloth diapers to leak! Rockin’ Green is specifically formulated to work well with both hard and soft water. They even make a Soft Rock version that is better for sensitive skin (a great soap for baby clothes).

I saved the best for last. Rockin’ Green will R-O-C-K you senses too! With a ton of fun smells like Cherry Lemonade you will actually look forward to doing the laundry! I’d love to list all the different scents but that’s part of the giveaway!

I only had a sample of Rockin’ Green but it lasted for about 4-5 loads of cloth diapers. The first time I used it I fell in love. Not only did the Cherry Lemonade scent make me want to shove my nose in my cloth diapers and inhale…but all of the inserts came out bright white. In the entire load there were only 2 inserts that needed a little sun to get rid of some faint stains from some NASTY poops!
