Does Sensitive Laundry Liquid contain fabric softener?Updated 10 days ago
TL;DR: No. Sensitive Laundry Liquid doesn't contain a traditional fabric softener. Thorough cleaning means fewer residues left in the fibres, which leaves fabrics feeling naturally cleaner. If you prefer the feel of a dedicated softener, add one at your machine's softener dispenser.
What does it have instead of softener?
✓ Cleaner fibres, softer feel
Conventional fabric softeners coat fibres with a conditioning agent. Sensitive Laundry Liquid takes a different approach, the formula focuses on cleaning thoroughly so fewer soils, oils, and detergent residues are left in the fibres. Residue buildup is the main reason clothes start feeling stiff or heavy over time, so cleaner fibres tend to feel softer naturally.
Do I still need a separate fabric softener?
✓ Optional, depending on preference
Many customers find Sensitive Laundry Liquid is enough on its own for everyday cottons and synthetics. If you prefer the feel of a dedicated softener, add one separately at your machine's softener dispenser, Sensitive Laundry Liquid is compatible with standard fabric softeners.
⚠ When to skip softener entirely
✓ Towels, softener residue reduces absorbency over time
✓ Athletic and moisture-wicking fabrics, softener clogs the wicking structure
✓ Fire-retardant children's sleepwear, softener interferes with the treatment
✓ Always follow the garment care label
