  2. Scented detergent, the old item this swap replaces

    Scented detergent → Fragrance-free liquid

    ARM & HAMMER Sensitive Free & Clear

    Meets our bar

    Fragrance- and dye-free liquid, as dermatologists suggest for sensitive skin. A jug skips pods, a known poisoning risk for toddlers, and costs less per load.

    • Fewer chemicals
    Why swapBuy on Amazon
  3. Chlorine bleach, the old item this swap replaces

    Chlorine bleach → Oxygen bleach powder

    OxiClean Versatile Stain Remover Free (fragrance-free) powder, 3 lb x 4 (192 oz)

    Meets our bar

    Oxygen bleach (sodium percarbonate) releases hydrogen peroxide and washing soda in water, so it whitens and lifts stains with no chlorine fumes. It’s safe on most colorfast fabrics.

Good to know before you buy

  • Wool dryer balls: Less static control on synthetics. Adding essential oils brings the VOCs back.
  • Fragrance-free liquid: ‘Free & clear’ still contains surfactants and preservatives.
  • Oxygen bleach powder: Dissolve it in warm water first, then soak tough stains for 1–6 hours before washing.
