Tag Archives: eco-friendly laundry soap

Laundry is one of the top priorities in my house with a preschooler and a high schooler.  It seems like the pile(s) are absolutely never ending!!

As we strive to live a more environmentally responsible lifestyle, I found that laundry became one of my biggest concerns.  It seems as though the machines are constantly running and I’m always using up a ton of chemically loaded products.

Luckily, I ran into a great green laundry soap online with a name you’ve just got to dig — Rockin’ Green Soap.  It’s recommended as a great way to de-funk diapers and as a general laundry soap.  Luckily, we don’t have any diapers here at the moment!!

They sent us a sample of the Classic Rock soap.  This is their original formula that is great for regular clothes.  It comes in 10 hard to choose from fragrances such as Cherry Lemonade and Vanilla Buttercream or unscented.  I chose the “Monkey Snacks” scent which smells very similar to flambe bananas.  It seriously smells good enough to eat and luckily doesn’t smell like monkeys at all!

They also have soaps called Soft Rock (a more gentle version that is unscented only) and Hard Rock (specially formulated for use with hard water).  Our Classic Rock soap not only smelled delicious but absolutely performed wonderfully.  Some of our cloths — especially the teen’s — are quite dirty and stinky.  This soap absolutely worked like a charm!

Eco-friendly??  Yup!  It’s phosphate free, SLS free, dye free, filler free, animal byproduct free, biodegradable and never tested on animals.  Perfect choice for green family living.  You can even purchase your own sample pack just like the one sent to me for less than $3!  That is enough for 7 regular loads or 14 High Efficiency loads.  They have multipack sets of two bags of laundry soap packaged in reusable, eco-friendly bags that work out to approximately $0.13 a load.  Going green can save you some serious green too!!

Thanks for the great review opportunity Rockin’ Green!!
