Bye bye detergent?

Pin It

Goodbye detergent! is a brand new line of environmentally friendly scrubs for your home, made with unique materials such as recycled corn cobs, peach pits, & walnut shells.

These reusable scrubs have natural abrasives that make it easier to clean with no detergents.

All of the scrubs and cleaning pads are made with natural abrasives and they come in 100% recycled packaging.

I am intrigued by these but VERY skeptical that they would work without any surfactant (a type of soap or detergent) of any kind.

The reason why I say this is because BF and I tried to clean dishes with just white vinegar and scrubbing, but the grease became too much to handle when we had oily pans.

We had to buy some castile soap and mix it with water (or basic goat’s milk soap) and use it to scrub the pans to get the grease off.

It was too difficult doing it just with a scrub.

A good surfactant was a MUST.
