How to use a solid laundry bar
Think of your solid laundry bar as a hand held soap and stain stick that you can use to manually spot remove stains and thoroughly wash delicates. It doesn't go in the washing machine, it's a clothes soap which is perfect for hand washing delicate fabrics like silks and laces which are too fragile to go in the wash. It's also perfect for travel as it saves you from having to cart around detergent or find a laundromat, you only need your bar and a sink! It's also great for spot cleaning clothes with stubborn stains that require that little bit of extra elbow grease and won't come out in the washing machine alone. They'll be gone before you know it, hence the name!

Ethique Flash! Solid Laundry Bar
There are a few reasons why I love the Ethique Flash! Solid Laundry Bar $14.95. It contains only a few ingredients including Coconut Oil and Kaolin Clay, and is lightly scented with Peppermint and Lavender to leave clothes smelling fresh and clean. White Kaolin Clay and Coconut Oil work to remove dirt and grease and lift stains while being gentle on hands. In fact, it's so gentle that you can actually make it multipurpose and use it as a laundry hand soap as well. This bar is so great for travel or camping trips too, especially when you find yourself without access to a washing machine. You can cut it up into smaller blocks to make it last longer or use the block as it is for easy hand held use. Best of all, it's biodegradable and comes in recyclable packaging, so it's totally plastic free and zero waste. To use, wet the garment and gently swipe bar over stained or problem areas, working into a lather with fingers. Rinse garment well after use.
