Product Reviews of Maggie's Soap Nuts. (50 Loads) 100% Natural Laundry Soap. Grows on TreesTM.
Product Review: Great product!
Summary: 5 Stars
Maggie Soap nuts work great. I bought it for my baby since many of the detergents gave him a rash. This works great in getting stains out and makes clothes smell fresh,clean and soft. It works better and is gentler than other mild laundry detergents. It is really neat on how it works they are actual nuts that you put in a cloth bag(provided) and you can reuse the soap nuts several times.Product Review: Interesting Product!
Summary: 5 Stars
This product is very interesting. When the soap nuts arrived I could not get over the fact that I was about to use them to wash my clothes- they look like something that could have fallen off a tree in my own yard! None-the-less they do seem to work fine for washing clothes. I have not yet tried them for any other uses. The box includes a "free gift" which is a pair of soap nut dangling earrings (if you enjoy wearing earthy styles, you'd probably really like them).Product Review: GREAT PRODUCT!

I've sometimes been disappointed with natual products not getting my dishes or laundry clean. I LOVED this product. My clothes were soft, smelled good (not a fake spring breeze smell), and came out clean. Highly recommended. Product Review: Incredible!
Summary: 5 Stars
Let's see, the only thing I can compare a soap nut to is a date. It's wrinkly, sticky, and the same size of a date - and even kind of smells like one too. The scent is not very strong, it's a really mild fruity smell.
You can use soap nuts for a variety of things: laundry soap, shampoo, body soap, pesticide, glass cleaner, the list goes on. The informative flyer it came with even said it can cure athlete's foot - so I'm soaking my feet in soap nut water every day!
The second I received my soap nuts, I started making my own liquid soap. All you need is 1 part soap nuts, 4 parts water - you can boil the soap nuts or let them soak over night. Then you just run the liquid through cheese cloth and viola, you got liquid soap!
I used my liquid soap as a shampoo. It was a little difficult to tell if I was using enough since the liquid soap is well, liquidy. So I poured some on my head and rubbed it in to my scalp and through my hair. It almost felt sticky when I was rubbing it into my hair and I was a little disappointed since I was expecting it to make my hair soft. When I got out of the shower though, my hair and skin were really silky. I don't think my hair ever felt so smooth, even with the really expensive shampoo and conditioners I use. It made my hair more bouncy too, like it had a lot of volume.
I have used the soap nuts in the cotton sack for my laundry about two times so far, but I still haven't figured that one out yet. I think I need to put a little more soap nuts in the cotton sack because my fiance's clothes are really dirty since he works construction. But either way, the soap nuts seem to be doing their job!
These soap nuts are really incredible. They don't leave a strong scent, they're natural, they don't make my skin itchy (like some soaps do), and everything they touch gets clean and silky. I am thinking about buying these boxes in bulk (which are available through Amazon too!). I'm so happy to have this alternative to soap since I don't like the idea of chemicals (even if they're supposedly harmless) on or near my skin.
Thanks Maggie!!
Product Review: Great for skin and clean clothes
Summary: 5 Stars
Since I started using these soap nuts my skin doesn't get itchy/irritated and I've stopped sneezing! I know the soap nuts are responsible for my improvement! AND they leave my clothes really soft without adding fabric softener, even when I hang my clothes to dry. I think these soap nuts are amazing. Thank you, Maggie!
