Washing – an eternal fight with stains, sorting clothes by color and folding them over and over again. It is a horror; it is obligatory. And there’s nothing worse than oil stains.
Do you realize how much time I’ve spent doing the laundry for my husband only to have grease marks sitting there mocking me? Despair is real, friends. But never fear because out of the abyss that is washing dishes came Dawn Platinum Erasing Dish Foam.
Yes, that was me. I really did say that; laundry detergent has been used as a salvation for clothes in the laundry room. It’s an ancient narrative passed down from my mother’s friend who claims to have witnessed its magic. So armed with scepticism and a bottle of Dawn liquid, I set out on a mission to banish grease stains once and for all.
But before we go any further — a disclaimer: I am not a domestic goddess. Writing about cleaning is like trying to speak Klingon to me. However, if it saves someone from having oil-stained clothes, sharing my laundry woes is worth it when all else fails.
That’s it; how the Dawn Platinum Erasing Dish Foam became my laundry hero in disguise:
The Adversary: Grease stains, the nemesis of clean clothes.
Aha moment: The most unlikely solution to my problem — dish soap made for cutting grease — came via a friend’s tip.
The main event: Into the washing machine they went with my trusty Tide Coldwater Clean detergent.
Triumph (drumroll, please): And here are the results! Some stains needed another go-round, but most disappeared after one wash, leaving a string of freshly cleaned victories behind.
That was a story about stains struggling and then winning. But even though I still hate doing laundry as much as ever, finding Dawn Platinum Erasing Dish Foam has made it slightly easier.
How to use: I found confidence with Dawn Platinum Erasing Dish Foam. A little goes a long way and if you softly rub the foam even on the hardest place on earth.
Wait your turn: Leave it alone for about five minutes before moving on.
But then again, don’t lose heart – where there is grease, there will always be hope. And maybe just possibly a humble dish soap can be the secret to saving your laundry day.
Until then may your garments remain clean while detergent stays in plenty. Keep going friends forward to cleaner days!
