Review: Dreft Laundry Detergent {and a Giveaway!}

I have a few things I am picky about.

Alright, it may be more than a few things…

The dishwasher, for sure, particularly how it’s loaded (just ask Sarah). Even though I don’t think it’s pickiness in as much as it is just the way I happen to do it.

And laundry.

Most particularly, the way it smells and feels.

When Nick was a baby, a friend and a pediatrician both mentioned Dreft detergent. And I was pretty much in from the word go. One of the things I look for when choosing a laundry detergent is something that doesn’t have an overpowering scent. I want it to smell clean. Not like a field of flowers. To smell fresh, but not to smack you in the face when you put on a shirt.

Simple but important requirements.

And when I started having kids, I added one more requirement. It had to be safe for the baby’s skin, so I didn’t have to worry about them breaking out.

Which is pretty much exactly why Dreft has been in our lives for thirteen years now (it’s been around for 80 years!). Because it met my before-kids requirements, and met my after-kids requirements. The fact that it’s hypoallergenic is awesome, and now that the kids are a bit older, the fact that it’s a great stain remover is all better.

Because if there is one thing we can all agree on … it’s that we’d be ok if we spent less time doing laundry.
