Warnings & Directions
Directions for Use:
Hand Washing: Measure one capful to every quart of cool or cold water. Immerse the garment, and gently squeeze the suds through it. Do not rub or wring the garment, and do not let soak more than 5 minutes. Rinse fully in cold water, and roll the item in a clean, dry towel to remove excess water. Lay flat or hang to air dry. Machine Washing: Measure 1/4 cup for a small load. Set your washer to gentle cycle, cold water. Allow water to mix with detergent, then add your garments. When the cycle is complete remove the items immediately to reduce wrinkling. Lay flat or hang to air dry. IMPORTANT: Always follow care instruction labels to ensure the best possible results.
Caution:
Product versions
Manufacturers frequently make changes to their product ingredients, formulations or labeling, and older versions may still be on store shelves or in your home. When possible, EWG's Guide rates all available versions. It's important to read the label every time you shop, even though many labels don't offer complete information.
