Win A One Year Supply Of Dizolve Ultra Laundry Detergent Strips {Giveaway}


A little while ago, the folks at Dizolve sent me a box of their laundry detergent strips to try out. My first thoughts upon opening the box was, "There's no way that tiny thing can clean a whole load of laundry." However, after a month or so of using the product religiously, I'm a convert.

Though my mister is an expert laundry doer -- he measures and sorts and loads the machine perfectly -- I've always been more of a dumper, shover, and douser. Laundry in, soap in, water in, GO. But in that haze of rushed laundry doing, I know I'v been using more soap than needed. Aka, I've been wasting soap, and wasting money.

Enter, Dizolve strips. They come all attached together, so you've just got to rip one off, pop it into the bottom of your machine, add your clothes and off you go! REALLY dirty load? Use 2. Not so dirty load? Use 1/2. Easy, simple, and BOY do they work.



Perfect for use in hot or cold water, you can't measure wrong, and they work in standard or HE machines. These babies are made in Canada and have a whole host of other fabulous qualities too:
  • Zero plastic
  • 94% less transportation pollution
  • Biodegradable
  • 1,4-Dioxane free
  • Phosphate-free
  • Safe for septics
  • Hypoallergenic, gentle on skin
  • Free of colour dye

From their website:

We’re on a mission to make your laundry washing chore easier, healthier, more economical, and much kinder to our planet.

A few years ago, we observed many things drastically wrong with traditional detergent products:
  • They’re heavy to lug around and bulky to store,
  • Shipping them around generates tons of pollution,
  • They add a mountain of plastic to our landfills, and
  • Over-sized, hard to read measuring caps cost consumers over $1 billion a year in over-dosing waste.

A light bulb went off, and we set out to invent a smarter way to clean laundry.

Because their 72-load packages can be mailed in a small envelop, this is the first time ever that detergeant has been shipped in a cost-effective manner. Amazing stuff.
