Seventh Generation Baby Laundry Detergent Review

February 18, 2018 by Mandy Wright

Choosing the best detergent for your babies is not only important but it is also a necessity as babies create a mess everywhere. Parents always overlook detergents as they think it is okay to buy any ordinary product, but advised that you research before buying one. This article will help you in doing just that.

As a responsible parent, you need to look for good quality detergents as the ordinary ones contain irritants and chemicals that are harmful to your baby’s skin. There are hundreds of detergents in a market and choosing the right one requires some kind of research, but first let’s dive into what makes detergent, a good buy?

As a parent, always look for the best buy in terms of product quality. Always keep the following things in mind while buying a detergent.

Free from chemicals and irritants

The most important thing in good detergents is that they should be chemical free. Chemicals and other harmful ingredients leave residue on your baby’s clothes which may be dangerous for their sensitive skin.

They should not contain bleaches, brighteners and any sort of artificial fragrances as they might have a harsh reaction on the skin. Always choose detergents that are mild as they are prone to be less harmful. You can also buy organic detergents as they are made from natural ingredients, which is best for babies.

Non-bio detergents are also a good choice as they are efficient in cleaning stains and do not contain any harmful agents.

 

Gentle on skin

Another important factor is that it should be gentle on skin. Baby products are exclusively made for their skin type because it is sensitive and prone to allergies and other diseases. Go for products that are gentle on skin and has very fewer chances of giving any skin infection.

 

Free from Fragrances

Best marketing strategy for misinformed consumers is the fragrance in bath products and detergents. They are advertised that way and branded to sell based on their alluring fragrance. However, your criteria should not be fragrances as they are generated from toxic chemicals and should be avoided at any cost. It would be better to go with natural products.

 

Long lasting

Choose detergents that offers good quantity in less price. As the amount of detergent needed by you is going to be high due to your baby’s growing age and needs, you would require more detergent for increased number of washes.

 

It should be effective enough to clean stains

A good detergent should be effective as well as safe to use. Having a product that is just safe and chemical free is not going to fulfill your purpose. You should always look for products that are effective in cleaning and doesn’t require much effort from your side.

There are going to be stubborn stains and with less amount of time as a parent, make sure that you chose a chemical free detergent with good cleaning capability.

Keeping in mind all these factors, we will review one product that fits in all these categories discussed.

 

Seventh Generation Natural 4X Concentrated Baby Laundry Detergent, 106 loads, 40 Fl Oz (Pack of 2)

 This product offers all the points that we had discussed above and therefore, becomes the best buy.

The seventh generation contains quadruple enzyme system that is used to clean tough stains like spit-up, milk spills, fruits and vegetable stains and diaper mess that your child is definitely going to make.

Effective detergents are always easy to use and make your work easy. Therefore, this detergent can be used for both rinsing and be cleaning the baby clothes.

Moreover, you do not have to worry about the harmful chemicals as it is 100% natural. This detergent is USDA certified and is 95% bio-based concentrated laundry detergent. Such quality assurance gives authenticity to a product being natural and safe to use.

Also, you do not have to compromise on fragrance also, as this detergent leaves wonderful, fresh scent after cleaning, on your baby’s clothes. It contains essential oils and botanical extracts which are again natural and safe for them.

One more important point to note is that ordinary detergents use brighteners to make clothes look whiter and brighter after cleaning giving it a sense to a user that it is perfectly clean and washed. However, this is just an optical illusion, and they use harsh synthetic chemicals in the detergent.

This might rub off on the skin of baby as they get deposited on clothes. The seventh generation has clearly stated that they don’t use such ingredients. These materials also harmful for the environment as they are non-bio degradable.

This detergent is also made keeping in mind the sort of washing machine that will be used. They work with standard and HE machines. It has also been tested to be hypoallergenic i.e. it is unlikely to cause any allergic reaction to baby’s skin.

Also, this is one of the nation’s leading natural brands of household and personal care products. This company has always lived up to its customer’s expectations and commitments to provide mindful, healthy solutions.

Cons:

  • This detergent has fragrance and you should take care if the baby is allergic to it.

 

Conclusion

It is always good to be safe than sorry and hence, you as parents should always look into the factors listed above before buying any baby products, in this case detergents. It might seem very small item to worry for as against other baby shopping products but it is imperative for healthy and safe usage on baby.
