Eucalan Lavender Delicate Wash 500ml Refundable Jar

Eucalan’s Lavender Delicate Wash is scented using the essential oil of lavender. Known for its natural moth and flea inhibiting with antiseptic properties, this is a versatile wash for all fibres. The lanolin enriched formula naturally conditions fibres to keep static away.

Lavender’s sweet soothing scent is ideal for baby items like blankets, stuffed animals, clothing and wool diaper covers. Our most versatile scent, use it on all your delicates like sweaters, lingerie, hosiery, comforters, linens, bedding, down jackets and bathing suits.

Eucalan is a no-rinse wash, meaning that the formula delicately releases dirt into the wash basin, cleaning fabric without the need of a final rinse through. Though the fabric absorbs a little of the soap, it has beneficial properties. Lanolin fortifies and conditions clothing fibres - particularly great for woolens and knits, but can be used on most anything.

Additionally, some of the pure essential oils used for Eucalan scents, are naturally anti-bacterial or moth-inhibiting. These are intended to remain in the clothing to further benefit from - think swim suits and lingerie that lie close to the skin, or blankets and knitted sweaters that get packed away for the cold months.

Eucalan’s no-rinse formula is also convenient – great for travel when you’re not likely to have a washing machine, or are seeking to conserve water.

If you still feel the urge to rinse, it is safe to do so. The soap has done its job of cleaning, though you will lose the lasting effects of the lanolin and essential oils.

Basic Laundry Lessons:

To test for colour-fastness, place a swatch of the fabric in a jar with water and the cleaning agent you intend to use. Shake the jar and see if the water changes colour and how many suds you get. Or, dampen an inside seam, wait a minute or two and blot with a white cotton cloth. If colour appears, use caution. Most dyes used on yarn are reactive dyes and stand up to washing in 120 degree F (49 degree C) water. If a yarn was dyed at a high temperature it can stand up to that temperature without shrinking or fading.
