Since you're here, why not explore these eco-friendly laundry detergents?
Because the ingredients are natural, they are biodegradable and non-toxic too, so when they flow out of your pipes and eventually end up in the sea they won’t be as harmful to marine life. Many of these brands are cruelty-free and/or don’t use any animal ingredients, so they are a great choice for those wanting to not only limit their environmental impact but those who are vegan too.
On the whole, softeners containing naturally derived perfumes or essential oils for scent are subtle in fragrance and gentle on easily irritated skin. However they may not be suitable for those who are looking for a softener that brings a powerful, long lasting perfume, and usually they are a bit more expensive than commercial chemical products, so might not benefit those on a tighter budget.
It is recommended that if you do plump for this type of softener, you don’t use it every time you wash your towels or gym wear, so bear this in mind if you don’t have the time to do several separate loads of washing each week.
To make sure that your laundry always comes out squeaky clean, these washing machine cleaners will do the trick.

Simply add a cap full to your next wash to combat stretching, fading, pilling and fuzz, and static on your clothes. When used with a detergent, it is also highly effective at reducing wrinkles. On the downside, the price may be a little steep for some considering the quantity you get in a bottle.
Place your fabric softener in the smallest compartment of your washing machine's detergent drawer. It can be identified by a star or a flower. Simply measure the amount you want to use on the cap and pour it into the compartment once you've loaded your clothes and before selecting a wash program.
The symbol for fabric softener in your detergent drawer may differ from one machine to another, but it is usually an asterisk, a star, or a flower.
Yes, both of these are simply different ways of naming fabric conditioners as it does both - softens and conditions your garments. So, you can use both these terms interchangeably.
