With 1 kilo of soap, you can make 60 liters of liquid laundry detergent and/or liquid soap. So it's also very economical and environmentally friendly. This soap cleans very well, and with essential oil, you can give your laundry detergent your own scent. You can also make your own soap bars with this soap, for example, with herbs, essential oil, and hydrolats. An ecological and economical way to do hand washing and machine washing (up to 150 machine washes). These soap flakes are made entirely from vegetable oils from controlled organic farming (coconut and palm oil). They are manufactured in France and contain no additives, preservatives, or perfume. Because they are naturally hypoallergenic and contain natural glycerine, the soap flakes are particularly suitable for delicate fabrics (silk, lingerie, and wool), baby clothes, and people with allergies. Good for 130 washes. Product specifications Vegetable Soap Flakes - Organic - 1kg Item description Vegetable Soap Flakes - Organic - 1kg Item number 3760138833099 Type of detergent Washing powder Packaging type Standard Suitable for Color, White Country of origin France Here's a recipe for making your own laundry detergent, consisting of 2.5 liters of detergent for white laundry and 2.5 liters for colored laundry: 80 grams of grated Marseille soap or soap flakes. 40 grams of soda (for white laundry) 5 liters of water (boiling) 60 drops of essential oil Boil one liter of water. Add the soap flakes. Stir well. And keep stirring until all the soap has dissolved. Add another four liters of boiling water (this can also be done in a clean bucket if you don't have such a large pan). Pour half of the soapy water into another pan or bucket and add the soda. Soda has a slight bleaching effect and is therefore suitable for white laundry. (Note: old washing machines sometimes still have aluminum parts, and these washing machines cannot tolerate soda, as it corrodes the aluminum parts. You can easily test with a magnet whether your drum is made of aluminum or stainless steel; with a stainless steel drum, the magnet will stick, and if the drum is made of aluminum, it will fall off). Let this cool for 1 night and then add the essential oil of your choice the next day. 30 drops per 2.5 liters of detergent, or a little more if you want a stronger scent. Lemon oil enhances the whitening effect and the grease-dissolving effect of the liquid detergent. This is therefore very suitable for the white laundry detergent recipe. I often add a spoonful of organic oxygen bleach (for example, from Ecover, available at health food or organic stores) to white laundry because I feel that it gives that little extra that makes your laundry beautifully white and clean. Eucalyptus oil is very suitable for washing bedding because it helps against dust mites. Lavender essential oil and Ylang Ylang are wonderfully scented oils if you want a detergent with more fragrance. For very sensitive skin, you can, of course, omit the essential oil and make an unscented detergent. Or you can add a few drops of essential oil per wash, so you can use something different each time. You will see that after 1 night, your liquid detergent will have turned into a thick gel-like mass. Stir everything thoroughly again (possibly with a hand blender, but usually a wooden spoon works fine too) so that any lumps disappear and the detergent becomes liquid again, and then pour the detergent into empty, well-rinsed, (detergent) bottles. This (unscented detergent) is in principle suitable for all laundry at low and high temperatures. Approximately one detergent ball per wash is needed. Always shake well before use to dissolve any lumps.
