Paraben Free
Parabens are synthetic chemical preservatives, commonly used in beauty products like shampoo, lotion, and deodorants. Parabens can accumulate in your body, and have been linked to hormonal disruption and reproductive problems. In studies of breast cancer patients, parabens have been found in the tissue of cancerous tumors–yikes! If you want to avoid Parabens in your beauty products, keep an eye out for methylparaben, propylparaben, butylparaben, and ethylparaben in the ingredients list.
Phthalate Free
Phthalates are found in toys, electronics, personal care products, plastic wraps, containers, and more. These petroleum based chemicals help soften plastics, and bind fragrances to perfumes, deodorants, creams, and other personal care products. Phthalates are are not chemically bound, meaning they can easily get released into the air, water, or your body, just by using the products as intended. Phthalates have been found to disrupt the endocrine system, which can cause reproductive damage, hormonal imbalances, infertility, mood changes, metabolism changes, and more.

Appreciate option to eliminated plastic from packing, shipping and dispensing. Smells great. Not dissolving well in my front load washer. Talked to Dropps and they are sending me a pouch to put it in they say will solve the problem.

Question

I would like to use the laundry detergent and softener pods together, but the softener is only available in Lavender Eucalyptus scent and I wanted the detergent in Clean & Crisp. What would mixing the two be like?

Hi Kathy! One of our team members has tried this, actually! The Clean & Crisp scent is stronger than the Lavender Eucalyptus, so while you can smell both, you’ll mainly get the Clean and Crisp scent profile.

Although I like the Dropps laundry detergent pods alone, these scent booster/ fabric softener pods are a great addition! The clean scent really comes through and my clothes feel as soft as they did when I used regular fabric softener.

Love the clean scent and found that it cleans effectively, but the fabric softening part did not work for me as my clothes came out of the dryer pretty stiff. I’m going to try a different Dropps laundry pod and separate fabric softener instead.

My clothes came out clean and not with the over-powering scent like Tide pods. The clean scent was very subtle. I will definitely buy these laundry pods again. Best echo-friendly laundry pods.

Works as well as dryer sheets/ fabric softener and without all the harsh chemicals and phthalates!

The first time I tried this product I tried it in a cold load and it didn’t fully dissolve, leaving my clothing with white dots all over them. After some research, I learned that the pods need to be dissolved in warm or hot water, so I tried it with warm water with very little improvement. I do have a top load washer so I’m not sure if that may be causing an issue

Hi there! Oh no, we are so sorry to hear that your Dropps fabric softener and scent boosters aren’t working out. Dropps recommends adding the scent booster capsule directly into the back of the washer drum before adding clothes, with a laundry detergent pod. We’re happy to help out further at hello@earthhero.com if the issue persists!

I only want the scent booster not the fabric softener because i don’t want additional film layer on my workout clothes and towels. Does your fabric softener have the film layer? Can it be used with cold water?

Hi there- great question! Dropps uses a mineral-based formula that flows through fabrics to fluff items up instead of coating them with a waxy substance! These pods can be used in cold water, too, to make laundry day even more eco-friendly!

I like these a lot because they are a compact way to get a load worth of soap without it spilling everywhere if you accidentally knock the container over (my powder has done some pretty awful messes when someone decided it would be fun to play with the powder! Fantastic for having kids help. They just have to use one little pouch and it’s all good!

Hi Elisa, you can definitely use these pods in a machine with prewash. Just be sure to place the pod in the drum of the machine!

I bought these because sometimes you just want to help with the softness on certain items without using harsh chemicals. These are wonderful.

Almost all of my clothing is hung outside on a line year round so I was glad to find these to add to the washer and not the dryer. It does a great job of softening the clothes on the line. I did notice a difference in the really stiff jeans in particular. The scent is very light, even when I take the clothes out of the washer before drying them and I use the same scent in the laundry pods so I thought it would be a little more noticeable.

I would love to try this product out but my question is do I put this in the where I would normally put my fabric soften which would be in the middle of my washer.

Hi, Emily! You can toss these pods into the washer like a regular laundry pod- the fabric softener is specially formulated to work in this way! A true two for one 🙂
