Why we stock this

We checked what is actually doing the softening rather than relying on the word "natural".  Read The Label uses an esterquat derived from sunflower oil alongside guar extract, and publishes the essential oils used for fragrance rather than listing an undisclosed parfum blend.

We also liked that the brand gives a full ingredient declaration, including the conditioning agents and fragrance components, so customers can see exactly what is in the formula.

What's in it

Aqua: Water base.

Distearoylethyl Dimonium Chloride: The main fabric-conditioning ingredient.  Read The Label describes this as an esterquat derived from sunflower oil.

Guar Hydrocypropyltrmonium Chloride: A modified guar ingredient used to help condition fabrics and reduce static.

Bergamot Essential Oil: Part of the fragrance blend.

Geranium Essential Oil: Part of the fragrance blend.

Ylang Ylang Essential Oil: Part of the frangrance blend.

Lavender Essential Oil: Part of the fragrance blend.

Full ingredient list: Aqua, Distearoylethyl Dimonium Chloride, Guar Hydroxyprpoyltrimonium Chlodride, <0.5% essential oil blend: Citrus Aurantim Bergamia Oil, Pelargonium Graveolens Oil, Cananga Odorata Flower Oil, Lavendula Angustifiola Oil.

How to use

Add to the washing machine's fabric softener compartment using the dosage stated on the bottle.

Read The Label says it is suitable for everyday fabrics including cotton and linen, but not for microfibre or sportswear.

Good to know

Uses sunflower-derived estergent rather than leaving the conditioning ingredient unnamed and uses named essential oils instead of synthetic parfum.

This is a fabric softener, not a laundry detergent.  Keep out of reach of children and pets.  Avoid contact with eyes and always follow the safety information on the packaging.

Care instructions

Store upright in a cool, dry place.  Keep the cap securely closed between uses.
