Reviews of washing powders for newborns

Newborn laundry detergent is a product that can be used to care for a baby's clothes from the first days of life. This information should be clearly stated on the packaging. Newborn laundry detergents should not be confused with baby detergents, which are recommended for use on children from six months or even three years of age. In this article, you can read real reviews of various newborn laundry detergents; we hope they will help you draw some conclusions.

Long-eared nanny

I consider this powder's main advantage to be its affordability, as it's sold even at a convenience store. My current situation is that I can't go to a supermarket, which has a much wider selection of powders for newborns. I have to use Ushasty Nyan, which is "for use from the first days of life," but I must say right away that I'm categorically dissatisfied with this laundry detergent.

• it does a very poor job of removing stains from baby food and soup;
• stains from any bright products are beyond his capabilities;
• even if you wash with a reduced dose, the powder does not rinse out of the laundry;
• The product has a very strong chemical smell, so it is doubtful that it is safe for a child.

I'm very worried that this powder might cause an allergy in my baby, so after washing his clothes in the washing machine, I set it to double rinse, then rinse by hand, then put the clothes back in the washing machine and spin them.

Powder Long-eared nanny "It's a real chemical weapon. I wouldn't risk washing my own clothes with it, let alone little Misha's diapers. Two years ago, when Lerochka was born, I bought a small pack of this product to try, but after opening it and smelling the contents, I immediately put it aside and never used it again. Then, a friend sang its praises again, saying there's no better powder for a baby, technology is improving, try it and you won't regret it. I bought another small pack and, after opening it, threw it in the trash—you can't wash things that touch a baby's delicate skin with such chemical crap, absolutely not!"

Ushaty Nyan is the best powder for my baby. It washes perfectly, doesn't cause allergies, and is easy to buy since it's sold in any store that sells washing powders, and what else do we need! I don’t use or even try other baby powders because I’m completely satisfied with Ushasty Nyan.

Nastin, Ekaterinburg

I'd like to ask the sellers of Ushasty Nyan, who are praising their product, if they've read the ingredients. How can a powder with such a composition be safe? It's mind-boggling: sulfates, phosphates, optical brighteners, anionic surfactants? It's simply appalling! I'm categorically against this and similar powders; they should be banned altogether.

Our mother

Annette, Orenburg

A week ago, I bought some baby laundry gel, and I was absolutely outraged. What kind of gel is this that you can't even pour it out of the bottle? It's so thick you literally have to shake it out. The first time I washed with it, I messed up the entire front of the machine trying to fit this thick gunk into the detergent dispenser.

Now I'm smarter: I put the cup in the bathtub, shake the gel into it, and then add it from the cup to the detergent drawer. Bottom line: using Nasha Mama gel is inconvenient, it doesn't clean well, but it's also inexpensive. I'll only use it as a last resort.

Katyusha, Arkhangelsk

I want to leave a negative review about the Nasha Mama baby laundry detergent gel. I don't like writing reviews, but the people who made this gel asked for it. So, first things first. Firstly, this gel dissolves in water much worse than even the cheapest detergent, and rinsing is a complete disaster – it just sticks to the laundry. It doesn't clean at all, about as well as liquid baby soap. It's impossible to pour it out of the bottle; I had to cut the top off, and then the gel just came out. I'll never buy this third-rate junk again!

Dasssha, Simferopol

Our Mama laundry detergent is excellent. I've even tested it on my older children's clothes. My eldest is a soccer player, and he's always wearing shorts and T-shirts stained with dirt and grass. I tried washing with this gel—the results were perfect, as if I'd washed with my favorite Ariel. The only serious drawback, in my opinion, is that you have to dilute it with water before use, which takes a long time because it doesn't dissolve well.

Tobbi Kids

Larisa, St. Petersburg

When Tanya was born, I seriously struggled to find a good, safe laundry detergent for her clothes. But really, how can you know which detergent is best for a baby? Advertisers won't tell you the truth. I decided to look for a well-known brand, but one that wasn't heavily advertised. I came across Tobbi Kids; it has a cool packaging. The test showed that the product is beyond all praise. It washes perfectly and is almost dust-free. My baby responds well to it, too, with no redness or rashes. Overall, I'm happy and recommend it to everyone.

Evgeniya, Kemerovo

Tobbi Kids laundry detergent is fantastic. I bought it and couldn't be happier. It's inexpensive, economical, washes beautifully, and is safe for my baby. I'm a mother of three, and I tested it on my middle and youngest sons, and they're all perfect. Incidentally, its chemical composition is acceptable, so you can buy it with confidence!

Ivan, Chelyabinsk

Gone are the days of spending half the night in the bathroom washing piles of diapers, undershirts, and other baby clothes by hand with a bar of soap. Now there's Tobbi Kids laundry detergent, and it truly makes it possible to machine-wash such clothes. I'm generally conservative and don't believe in newfangled products, but when I was given a granddaughter to care for, I had to learn how to use it. Now I understand that this product truly makes life easier for new mothers.

Mako Clean

Yana, Ivanovo

I bought this strangely named detergent a couple of months ago, without much enthusiasm. I'd simply given up on finding a decent detergent for washing my kids' clothes. It's always some kind of crap—either it doesn't wash, or it's dusty, or it smells—but I really liked Mako Clean. I didn't find any obvious flaws, and it washes well. I'll keep buying it for now, at least until I find something better. I'm still searching!

Dosia, Smolensk

Due to my profession, I have had to try many washing powders for children's clothes, including Mako Clean baby laundry detergent. I can tell you from experience that this powder is nothing special. I can't say it washes particularly poorly or is harmful—it's neither, but it's also nothing special. It's not worth paying any attention to.

Karina, Moscow

Mako Clean is an excellent detergent, certainly better than the "Eared Crap" or whatever it's called, "Eared Nyan." When I washed with "Eared Crap," my laundry smelled of chemicals, but after using Mako, there were no strange odors. It's a miracle detergent, I recommend it to everyone!

Newborns require unprecedented care, and this applies to everything, including laundry detergent. You'll find reviews of the best baby detergents in our post; we hope you find this information helpful. Good luck!
