You simply put it in the washing machine and no other detergent is needed. The two types of mineral pellets inside the egg get to work, producing powerful (yet natural) cleansing foam that thoroughly cleans your clothes. These are refillable. Furthermore, EcoEgg has been dermatologically tested and even found to be extremely suitable for (very) sensitive skin. EcoEgg laundry eggs have been rated 'excellent' for sensitive skin by Dermatest. They are also a money-saving, environmentally friendly, and hypoallergenic alternative to regular detergent. EcoEggs are safe to use in all washing machines. The Sensitive version of EcoEgg is also enzyme-free, especially for people with sensitive skin. EcoEgg, along with Paramount and Nickelodeon, is supporting Operation Sea Change with the SpongeBob SquarePants line. This organization combats plastic pollution in the oceans. Sustainable detergent, refillable, and skin-friendly. Refillable. Less plastic waste. Free from harmful ingredients. Hypoallergenic. Dermatologically tested. Vegan. Sustainably packaged. Enzyme-free. The laundry eggs are safe for all washing machines. Simply place the egg in the washing machine with your laundry. The pellets in the laundry ball last for 70 washes. After these 70 washes, you can easily refill the ball with the refill (for 50 washes). Use at a maximum temperature of 60 degrees Celsius. Treat stubborn stains first, for example, with stain remover. EcoEgg changes the pH of the water, making laundry feel naturally soft. So, no fabric softener is needed. If you do want to use fabric softener, that's no problem. Don't overload your washing machine; the egg needs space to move around in the drum. Do not use a water-saving program, as the egg needs water to function properly. Before using the egg for the first time, it's recommended to run a completely empty 95-degree wash cycle with descaler or citric acid to remove residue and limescale. You may find your laundry smells unpleasant at first. That is not caused by the egg, but by residues of washing powder that are still in the pipes of the machine Product specifications Wash Ball - SpongeBob - Tropical Burst - Sensitive - 60 Washes - Sensitive Item description Wash Ball - SpongeBob - Tropical Burst - Sensitive - 60 Washes Article number 5060558051379 Version Sensitive Type of detergent Wash Ball Type of packaging Standard Suitable for Colour, White Country of origin United Kingdom 240524_Ecoegg_NL-LE-INSTRUCTIONS-2-combined10.pdf Ingredients: Calcium carbonate, Oxirane,2-(chloromethyl)-homopolymer, Saponin, Sodium C14-16 Olefin sulfonate, Sodium carbonate, Dodecan-1-ol, ethoxylated, Aluminium hydroxide, perfume.
