Ellen, I am a fairly new soap maker, and actually I tend to make everything but bars of soap. I consider you my Professor. I love your style, your attitude, your willingness to share and teach without charging any fees. I love that you are always sharing where to get good deals on ingredients and tools. You are a rare one here on YouTube and I'm just so thankful for you. Please never stop teaching and sharing what you are up to in your soap studio. Thanks so much for your bright light here on the tube.

This is the best laundry soap recipe I have ever tried! Ellen, you are so kind to share these wonderful gifts with all of us! I will never buy commercial laundry soap again❤️

[nancylohr]

I made detergent. Thank you for laundry detergent recipe. Mine tuned out perfect!

[AVisionInFur]

This recipe is amazing! My ratios were close, but a little heavier on the soap gratings. It’s worked so well on my laundry that, when confronted with cleaning a patch of concrete in my garage where friends had hung their deer a few days before, I grabbed this laundry soap, dissolved it and drizzled it on the stain. It came up in seconds with just a couple passes of a push broom. Thank you for sharing your recipe!❤❤❤

best tutorial I've found so far to make your own detergent. you are a very articulate and concise teacher.. truly excellent

[racif]

Every attempt at liquid detergent eventually gels up on me, which I hate. Love this powder recipe. Will give it a try. Thank you!

[Infab]

I have seen many videos of how to make laundry soap and I really love this video. This one is my favorite thank you for sharing and the extra tips. I hope you get more likes and followers 🤗

[robertamil]

Dear Ellen you are so so so good teacher, blessings to you and your family <3

[joycelamb]

I just made my second round of this laundry soap and I love how easy and cheap it is to make and works as good if not better then store bought! Thank you for this Ellen! love all your videos

[WiscoMel]

Thank you! I was so happy to see one of your videos pop up while looking for tips on DIY laundry soap. And how cool to see the ease of making it a liquid detergent! We have well water so I always have to use a little extra soap and I add borax to each load. I like this idea of it all being in one mix, do I don’t feel like a mad scientist with all my soaps and additives each time I do a load of laundry 😅

[nicolewilliams]

Hello Helen thank you for sharing your knowledge with us! I have tried your grocery store soap recipe and was super proud of myself. Today I tried your detergent, I washed with it and my clothes came out nice and clean! Thanks for being such an amazing teacher. I’m a new soaper and still trying to understand the ingredients in percentages.

[Debo_OG]

I switched to vinegar instead of fabric softener and it’s wonderful! Better for your clothes, you and your washing machine! ❤

[christinebowes]

I love this idea. I’ve been making soap for a long time. I’ve accumulated bucket loads of soap shavings from bevelling soap. Honestly, bucket loads… do you think I could use these soap shavings in your recipe. I no longer know what shavings were which soap lol. Yes they’re chock full of ingredients and some colour.

[kelseylycans]

So I love this recipe for whites and light colors. I do question the liquid formula only because I know with percarbonate, once it mixes into water, it activates, and only stays activated for a couple hours or so based off my own research. I’m assuming that’s why you got the foaming at the end when you mixed it. do you think it is worth putting the percarbonate in the liquid solution or maybe saving money and making a solution without the percarbonate, or just mixing your powder in with warm water and then throwing it in your tub just before you start your darks. Just some thoughts and opinions, absolutely love this mixture and has been doing wonderful for me !

I just love your channel! I’m a nurse, working full time, a soap maker for the past 12 years ( my mom has a local store) and you are a joy to watch. Thanks for all you do!

Hi Ellen

Thank you for sharing

[belight]

I LOVE learning from you, Ellen, you truly give freely and with all of your heart. That shines through on what you are sharing and are willing to take the time to share with us. I love your videos and how you teach ❤

Hi again Ruth I just wanted to give you an update on this washing detergent powder recipe. Now when I was using shop bought pods which I chucked into my drum never the detergent compartments I would get a dodgy stagnant water smell and mold in my drawer where the water flows from the pipes into my washer, also if I didn't pull the load out and left it overnight in the washing machine the clothes would stink and have to be washed again and I had to leave the door open so it wouldn't smell . Since using your recipe my washer doesn't smell even after the door has been shut and leaving the clothes in over night there's no smell at all no stagnant water smell or mold in my drawer either. I will never go back to shop bought crap it was obviously damaging my machine and pipes. I have a washing machine insurance and they recommend using a washing machine cleaner, I was using that every few weeks, not now I don't need it.

This recipe will definitely be replacing my Zote recipe because yours is vegan friendly. Thanks again, Ellen 😊
