Natural Homemade Fabric Softener
Save For Later!
What do mountain fresh, spring air, and fresh linen all have in common? They are all full of chemicals! I know that may not be your initial thought, but when it comes to fabric softener fragrances, it’s true! Don’t get me wrong, those fragrances smell lovely and make you clothes soft and cling-free. But they are also full of chemicals that can be harmful for you and the environment. The materials used can cause skin irritation and asthma just to name a few.
chemicals in Fabric Softeners
Fabric softeners and dryer sheets (even the environmentally friendly ones) contain quats, such as hydroxyethyl methylammonium methyl sulfates. (Say that 5 times fast!) Quats, short for quaternary ammonium compounds, are used to make your clothing feel soft. This chemical is also reported to contribute to asthma. In addition, phthalates are added to countless products found in your home, including fabric softeners. Phthalates are a group of chemicals used to make plastics more flexible.
All Natural Fabric Softener
Fortunately, you can make an all-natural fabric softener that works just as well, minus all of the harmful chemicals and fragrances used in the store-bought softeners. By using two simple and inexpensive ingredients, you can make an all-natural fabric softener. Protect your bodies biggest organ – your skin, by making the change from store-bought, to homemade fabric softener in just a few minutes.
