Will it remove body odor from the underarms of shirts when added to the laundry cycle? Also, is it safe to use on brightly colored clothes? Thanks!

Bac-out works best as a spot treatment rather than laundry additive. It works on bright colors but I would spot test first to be safe. You can dilute it if necessary depending on what concentrate you buy

I have never tried it on the underarms. I have used it on bright colors and it works great!

I have never used that way, I've only used it to take odor out from my hands and mouth after eating, for that purpose is awesome. I guess it would work for your underarms if you use it during a shower, because that's the way it works rubbing it on your hands with water.

I am certainly not an expert on HE washers but from what I've read the problem with using regular detergent in them is the amount of suds they create. This ball does not create any suds. Whatever the little beads are inside the ball causes the PH of the water to change which cleans the clothes. I am very allergic to most perfumes and this ball does not give off any scent. So that is a plus for me. If I had an HE washer I would certainly give the ball a try. From what I can tell it does not leave any kind of residue in the machine. Some people remove the ball after the wash cycle because if it is in during the rinse cycle it will wash the clothes again. Which cuts down on the number of washes you get from each ball. I don't have the time to watch my washing machine that close, so I leave the ball in during the entire wash cycle. Then I put the clothes in the dryer with a tennis ball that softens the clothes and doesn't leave a scent.

This stuff is amazing and I swear by it for lots of things but I've never used it on clothing. I've used it on the lining of a swimming pool. aluminum siding, refrigerators and lots of household surfaces. Ive used a sponge with it without any damage to the sponge but I just don't know about a shirt. Im sure it would remove the ring but I don't know if it would cause any damage.

I use this (and only this) as my laundry detergent, I add baking soda as a booster. It's GREAT if you have sensitive skin (my grandsons do). It will not foam up like regular detergents do (don't add extra). if your laundry load is less than a full load, cut back on the washing soda. It doesn't leave any residue in your clothes like regular laundry detergent does. Hope this helps. I have been using this and only this for the past 4 years. No complaints!!!!!

I've been using Cheer Free for years. The Smelly Washer got rid of the mildew smell in my washer for about two weeks and now it's back. I leave the washer door wide open and remove the detergent tray after using it..... The odor seems to creep back up no matter what I do.

I use it on my neck mixed with my moisturizer. I work outside in the heat so it does rub off on my clothes, but I have never had a problem with it leaving any stains after it has been washed even on white collars.

I have not had this problem but I have not found anything that Fabreeze Laundry Odor Eliminator has not worked on. I hope you give it a try.

You can use it on any type of acne. For myself it has reduced my acne. I can't promise it will disappear because every now and then I do get a few pimples here and there but it's okay because they aren't severe and yes you can use a wash cloth. People say to only rub the soap on your body but I prefer scrubbing my face and body. I only ever rub my body with the soap about twice a week just to give it a break. However, I believe whether it works or not depends on your skin, it's sensitivity and everything. It's all about how your body responds to it more than anything. If you read other reviews, some people find that it didn't works for them while most find it has. I believe it's more on body chemistry because no one person is the same. I hope this helped.

Unfortunately I used it for cockroach killer mixed 50% borax with 50% powdered sugar put into a picnic clear ketchup/mustard bottle and shaken together.. It worked great for that.. AS for cleanign a washer I have a front loader and I use a cup of lemon juice on a hot cycle to clean up stains and another run wtih one cup vinegar if there is an odor problem. I do know that if clothes have picked up the odor froma washer, washing the load with one cup of borax gets rid of the odor.. Hope this helps

I have never used the other kind of Nature's Miracle. But to take out those particular smells, I would use Just for Cats. I have used it on clothing and it didn't hurt the fabric at all (cotton fabric) and the smell was gone, but with fabrics, I always spray this on, let it sit for a couple of hours, then wash it in warm water with Tide. (Is it okay to say that? :) ) The smell has always come out. 'Hope this is helpful!

I don't use this for my regular laundry much, just cloth diapers. I use it to remove detergent and ammonia build up and it works like a dream. It does a great job on my white towels but was not able to get old dingy marks that get left behind the hand towels. Honestly, your best bet would be to fill a squirt bottle with half lemon juice half white vinegar 9% if you can get it, and spray the spots all over saturating them and set them in direct sunlight all day maybe even 2 days. Then was again with detergent and oxyclean. if you have hard water and you don't treat it, be sure to add calgon or just 1/4 C regular salt. That should get out the sweat stains. This works on pit stains in undershirts as well.

I have not used it on clothing either. I use it to get the wax out of my brushes after I paste wax my painted furniture. This works so much better than anything else I have tried!

Charlie's Soap still cleans. The cleaner will be also cleaning your washing machine of all the enzymes and such. I used Charlie's Soap without the additive for several months with no issues. I use the additive for my stepsons football clothes and my husbands work clothes. It just helps pull thoses major stains and stinks out. You really shouldn't have a problem. Good luck!

Its not anti perspirant. It will not stain your clothes but you will have under arm sweat just not the smell.

My experience says Yes. I believe it is no worse nor better than most of the brands on the market. I use it for all washing (sheets, towels, jeans, undershirts, etc) and have never been disappointed. Even sweaty workout gear comes clean (and fresh smelling). I'm a big fan of the subtle Lavender scent.
