Do you really have to wash this off after 20 minutes? Why would you?

I do not wash it off at all unless I have accidentally put it on a scratch or irritation and then it stings for a bit. This is good stuff.

In my experience, there is no need to wash the product off after application. I spray it on my armpits (it baffles me how great of a deodorant it is), on my feet, belly and sometimes on my legs and arms. Occasionally I have noticed a slight powdery film on my arms, which brushes off easily. Some people seem to feel a burn, or itchiness, but I have never had that experience. I tend to use it primarily at night. I'm about to order more. :)

No, I don't wash it off. It just suggests that if you don't like the salt residue that forms on your skin surface that you might want to wash it off.

I have never washed it off. I suppose it might irritate some people's skin, 20 minutes is long enough to absorb, wash it off to stop the irritation.

You don't HAVE to, BUT - I left it on every night for about a week, and my skin started to get really itchy, dry and red. My skin even started to burn a little. It also left a little filmy residue on my legs, so it would probably recommend washing off after 20 minutes.

I view this more as a "suggestion" because many may have delicate skin that will get agitated by the soap if it's their first time using this type of product. I've personally used harsher whitening soap so I was pleasantly surprised by the gentleness (in comparison to others). I personally keep mine on for about 2 mins after ive lathered my whole body, so no worries if it takes you longer just be aware of how your body reacts :)

I cannot imagine leaving this product on overnight. The first time I used it I had trouble not washing it off sooner than the suggested time. With regular use my skin can tolerate the product for longer and longer time periods, but I'm talking about minutes. I cannot imagine an hour, much less overnight. I am afraid her face would be badly burned.

The tag says not to. I have not tried to wash mine. I just spot clean as necessary.

Good question. All I can tell you is there is no residue or stickiness after the load. Since this is not a chemical it doesn't need to be "rinse". My daughter's skin react to regular detergent that are rinsed but not to these natural berries. My clothes are cleaned and smells good without the feeling of not being rinsed. That's all I can tell you.

Yes, you can. I have not showered for 24 hours after applying and there wasn't a problem. I try to leave it on as long as possible before I shower so it will sink into my skin as much as possible.

No, it doesn't. I always rinse it immediately after and it still looks like new.

no real time frame just after you apply it it will turn whitish then wash it off to neutralize it, or else you can burn your skin

Because of the materials, I would only wash this by hand in cool water and air dry. I like this product, but mine is new and I haven't had cause to wash it yet. It wipes off easily with a damp cloth.

That sounds like something I would do! LOL! As long as you wash it off, I wouldn't worry about the color. It's supposed to just catch drips anyway.

I've never needed to. Cleanup is easy! Fill it part way with water and a couple drops of dish soap, run on mix for 30 sec, rinse. All clean!

How odd!!! Since it is supposed to be an easy quick rinsing out of the clothes with no residue left in them, I'm a little surprised it is leaving a film on your machine. I would contact the owner at Molly's Suds, I'm sure they will help you trouble shoot. Are you using too much detergent with soft water perhaps?

nope. It should stay unwashed for 4-6 hours I believe. That is a big downside with the greasy look. That's why I use a conditioner after for styling to get rid of that sticky feel and greasy look.

I have put it in the dryer one time after washing but it takes a while to dry. Now I just take it to the dry cleaners and have them take care of it. To me it is worth the 20 dollars to get it dry cleaned.

Not and all it washes out, maybe after two washings, and depending on how how often you use it, will depend on how long it will last you

It smells fresh, not too strong and it fades away within an hour or so. Not unpleasant at all. Contrary to other reviews my hair does not respond well to it, it just gets sticky and does not look freshly washed at all. Use a towel to protect your clothing, otherwise you will have white residue all over your shoulders after brushing it out.

no, you need to rinse it out before it dries for sure. I tried it, not good!
