Ask Sweet Greens: Eco Bright Whites

Ask Sweet Greens Question:

I need some suggestions. I have been making my own laundry detergent for a little over a year now, but I have noticed some of my things, mostly my hubby’s whites, aren’t getting as clean as I’d like them them to. I have used peroxide and vinegar, buy maybe I’m not using enough? HELP! Thank you, Ana

Ask Sweet Greens Answer:

Great questions Ana. When my family switched to Eco friendly laundry solutions, we had the same problem. Mr. Sweet Greens wears only white polo shirts to work – so having his whites their brightest is a must! We tried vinegar and peroxide and also weren’t able to get our whites their whitest. Over the years, we have found a remedy that works well for us. We pretreat all of our whites with a squirt of Eco Me Emma Laundry Soap ( I added a spray nozzle to the top.) Then we wash with our regular Eco friendly laundry detergent and a scoop of Biokleen Oxygen Bleach Plus. And our whites are bright and white!

How about you greenie readers? Do you have a quick trick to get whites bright in the laundry? I would love to hear your quick laundry tips.
