Tropical Traditions - Powdered Laundry Detergent Review and Giveaway

Tropical Traditions, a company I've worked with before, recently gave me the opportunity to review their powdered laundry detergent.  I knew that if it was as good as the products I've reviewed in the past, I'd be mighty pleased. 

Tropical Traditions Powdered Laundry Detergent cleans and removes stains from your laundry with the power of Oxygen Bleach Destainer and Deodorizer. The Powdered Laundry Detergent is safe and effective at all temperatures on whites, permanent press, bright colors, pastels, prints, and delicates in hard or soft water. It is not suitable for silk or wool.  Tropical Traditions Powdered Laundry Detergent is non-toxic, environmentally safe and contains no phosphates. It cleans and safely bleaches your clothes.

With their laundry detergent there is no harmful by-products upon decomposition. It dissolves as completely as liquid detergents and rinses away completely leaving no residue in your clothes.


I've never really tried a laundry detergent with oxygen bleach added in it.  That's because I've been fearful it would cause my colored clothes to fade.  My fears were short-lived with the Tropical Traditions Powdered Laundry Detergent.  It seems to make my whites a little cleaner and doesn't cause any fading.  The laundry detergent is added to the washer after it's filled with water.  For my regular size top-loading washer, I use 1/4 cup of detergent on normally soiled loads.  A scoop is included and helps to measure the correct amount.  The laundry detergent is unscented and gives a nice amount of suds in the wash.  There net weight of the detergent is five pounds and quite a few loads can be washed with just one tub.  I do have to be careful when scooping out the detergent because some of the granules fall out of the container so I usually have a minor mess to clean up.  Other than that, it's a laundry detergent that works well for my large family.

Tropical Traditions has several free coconut recipes that you can browse through and use if you are looking for variations and different ideas for your meals.  You can receive a free copy of the Tropical Traditions Virgin Coconut Oil Book with your first time purchase from their site.
