Title: fabric conditioners.
Post by: alfred on February 09, 2022, 01:22:43 PM
i expect many of us use a fabric conditioner of sorts although they're not for everyone,  my wife likes fairy fabric conditioner, and for the main wash she uses surf tropical lily & ylang ylang which also makes the washing smell nice,


Q; what do you use when it comes to washing the clothes, either  in  liquid form or powdered soap,   as  well as may be a fabric conditioner

I think the main advantage of them is that without a fabric conditioner tumble dried towels would be good for sanding your corns. The smell or fragrance as they prefer it termed is probably more a woman thing.

Must admit this sort of thing is way over my head.
I am pretty sure Veronica used them, but how when and why is beyond me

The smell, and the softness of our laundry. That's why I use softeners, often one with lavender fragrance, especially for bedding.

I buy those weird little 'sachets' that contain all the laundry needs. Not as if clothes get soiled in the way they used to..  (Scrumpy..stop!)

I use whatever detergent is on offer !  although I've got a bottle of The Pink Stuff liquid Bio for a heavy wash..  Like GM I use a fabric conditioner for softness, Lidl Vanilla & Sandalwood is a nice one, but I have no idea if it actually smells like Sandalwood or  not  :grin: :grin:

I use those little pellet things that you chuck in the drum.. Very hard water here.. Towels are never soft..
But they are good enough .. A quick wipe down.. That's me..  :grin: :grin:

You should try fabric softener - it makes a huge difference with towels.

I love Fabric Softner, but I'm fussy as to what smell I use. I like the blue spring liquid best.
