How much to use
One capful (30 ml) per load; half for a small one. A 32 fl oz bottle is about 64 loads. For the first weeks with a newborn, an extra rinse cycle is a good habit.
The wash test
We washed six stains in cold water. Here’s what came out.
| Stain | After one cold wash |
|---|---|
| Formula | Gone |
| Spit-up | Gone |
| Sweet potato purée | Gone |
| Blowout | Gone |
| Banana | Gone |
| Grass | Faint shadow. Gone on the second wash. |
Cold water, HE front-loader, one capful (30 ml), no pre-treating, one wash. Photographed before and after on white cotton.
Your machine, water and stains will differ. If it doesn’t work on yours, the guarantee covers it.

- Decyl glucoside (corn- and coconut-derived surfactant)Cleaning agent that loosens dirt and oils.
- Sodium citrate (citric acid salt)Binds hard-water minerals so nothing is left on the fabric.
- Glycerin (vegetable glycerin)Keeps the enzymes stable in the bottle.
- Protease (protein enzyme)Breaks down milk, formula and spit-up.
- Amylase (starch enzyme)Breaks down cereal, purée and banana.
- Mannanase (gum enzyme)Breaks down the thickeners in baby food and formula.
- Citric acid (citric acid)Sets the pH so the wash is gentle on skin and fabric.

Questions
Can I use it on newborn clothes?
Yes — that’s who it’s made for. It’s fragrance-free and dye-free, with no optical brighteners. For the first few weeks, an extra rinse cycle is a good habit. If your baby has eczema or a diagnosed skin sensitivity, talk to your pediatrician first. This isn’t medical advice.
Does it work in cold water and HE machines?
Yes. It’s a liquid, so it mixes fully in cold water, and it’s low-suds for HE machines. The wash test above was run in a cold HE cycle.
How many loads is a bottle?
About 64 per 32 fl oz bottle, at one capful (30 ml) a load.
When does it ship?
Orders ship within 2 business days. Shipping is free over $35; the options and costs are shown at checkout before you pay.
Where is it made?
In the United States. The plant is named on the bottle.
What’s the return policy?
30 days, no questions. Email us and we’ll sort it out.
