The descriptions says: "Keep in mind soapberry is not just for use in laundry." What else is it good for?

I use it to make no poo shampoo. It doesn't suds like traditional shampoo. In liquid form it has to be refrigerated or you can make powdered version but I find that's kinda messy every time it's used. I boil mine in 2c water add xanthan gum and then add a few drops choice EO. Refrigerate for upto about 2wks. My hair has grown ALOT since I've used it. About 11 months ago I had very short pixie haircut and now my hair is almost right above my tush in length and thicker. I can't promise this will happen for everyone but it worked for me. I also use soap berries for laundry. Some use it as a hand soap or to wash dishes with. I use it to make no poo shampoo. It doesn't suds like traditional shampoo.

So far I've only used them for laundry but according to CrunchyBetty-you can make a liquid & clean about every surface in your house! http://www.crunchybetty.com/from-soap-nuts-to-liquid-natural-nontoxic-cleaning This is exciting!

Do not use this brand, Its seriously less effective and gross compared to other brands. I have tried both and there is something wrong with these ones, they are from China so it makes me wonder if they actually have chemicals on them or something like that. I use Nutrioil now, I only bought these once and ended up throwing the rest of the bag away. YOu can use good soap nuts as you look for recipies for soap, shampoo, dishwasher soap, all kinds of things. :)

You can use it to make soap, or certain kinds of edibles, like gefelta (sp?) fish.

Unlike regular laundry soap, there are no detergents or chemicals in soap nuts. From what I've read, soap nuts just break the surface tension of water so the water can get your clothes cleaner. Since there's no detergent or harsh chemicals, there's nothing to rinse out of your clothes (other than dirt). Leaving the soap nuts in during the rinse will not harm your clothes, and some say they even act as a natural fabric softener.

I have not used it directly on clothing items, but have used it in home made laundry soap and had no issues.

Yes, it can be used for laundry. I've heard of it being used directly in the washer, but I make a detergent that works better than anything I've ever used-- 1 cup each baking soda and washing soda, mix in 1/2 cup castile soap then 1 cup vinegar. It takes a lot of stirring (I use my kitchenAid mixer), but it turns back into a powder. I use 1/4-1/3 cup per large load and, man, are my clothes clean! Even dirty, sweaty work clothes and baby diapers come out smelling clean (not clean "scented", but actually clean) and they are soft because the vinegar acts as a fabric softener. People have complimented me on the softness of my fleece and don't really believe me when I tell them why!

I very much like these particular soap nuts. I have used soap nuts for about two years now, and I have used other brands in the past. These soap nuts seem to last much longer than what I have used before, and they get my clothes and house absolutely clean!

It is a detergent/soap. I think Nellie's also has a separate booster product you can buy.

Yes, I use mine for hair, not soap. The oil is good for anything but ingestion.

It's more for psoriasis and eczema. My boyfriend has psoriasis and acne and it doesn't seem to help the acne. It is amazing soap for dry or sensitive skin. It doesn't strip away moisture.

Sorry, I've only used is for dish soap. Bought extras for gifts and they also use it for soap.

es, it is low-sudsing. We live on a ranch, with a septic system. It is safe for HE washers, hence it is low-sudsing. I have used this laundry detergent for 2-3 years now, and I am happy with it. My family has skin allergies, and this worls well for us.

Mine says the same....love this laundry soap concentrate would recommend. Oh, we work in the trades aka attics/crawl spaces, etc...and it still does a good job on our very dirty clothes.

I've never used it in the washer, only on delicate items I do separately in the sink. It doesn't make a ton of suds, so it may be fine in an HE washer. I've used soaps not made for my HE when needed in a pinch, but just used much, much less. Maybe you could just email the company? Good luck!

Now Foods website states that it is for aromatherapy use. I use it in my homemade spray and body bar mosquito repellents. I did not see any information about therapeutic uses.

The box says laundry, kitchens and bathrooms. It doesn't say anything about dishes. It does do a good job as a laundry booster in the washing machine. There are times with my 8 year old son's laundry that a regular amount of Tide will not be enough so adding the Super Washing Soda seems to take the sweat and extra grime out ( grass and soil stains, spilled food etc)
