Soap Nuts

Soap nuts, also sometimes referred to as soapberries, washing nuts, wash shells or soapberry husks are a natural alternative to detergents for clothes washing. They are harvested from the fruit of several trees in the lychee family.

Simply place around 4-6 soap nuts in a draw string bag, place on top of the your washing in the machine and run the washing cycle as normal.

After, they can be dried out and used again multiple times. Usually this is about 4 washes but varies based on washing temperature and how heavily soiled the clothes are.
