Smelly washing powder


I went to the supermarket in the weekend and right at the entrance by the bananas and potatoes was a big stand with concentrated 'name brand' washing powder. A tall stack of small colourful boxes, but golly, did they smell.

There must have been so much perfume in these small inconspicuous little boxes to fill a duty free store. Just by walking past my nose hurt and I felt sick. I thought, if this is just the fake synthetic fragrance, I hate to imagine what other awful nasties were hiding in the box.

I got home, having not bought any of these pretty boxes. I filled my washing machine with our dirty clothes and my nice, friendly, natural Earthwise Laundry Powder and enjoyed the light fresh smell of eucalyptus and grapefruit essential oils, and my nose smiled - well if noses smiled it would have been been smiling :-)
