What Fabric Conditioner Do You Use??

[-SharonA-]

Just done a load of washing, added my conditioner via the tray unloaded washing and my newly washed clothes have no smell!!! It is beginning to be a waste of money buying conditioner. Unless I'm using the wrong stuff. What do you use if any???

[Tissy]

Don't use any, clogs up the washing machine too much.

I haven’t used fabric conditioner for years and never missed it. Don’t see the point in it.

[Pooka1950]

I don't use it either. I was advised against it by a dermatologist who said it left a residue on your clothes that can cause all sorts of skin problems

[Tilly2]

Same here, Tissy.

I don't use fabric conditioner as such, I use Bold, lavender, and have never had any issuse with it. It does leave a faint scent.

I don't use it

[elliemay1]

I haven't used it for years either, some garment labels actually say not to use it

[Old_Geezer]

I don't use it. I want my clothes clean not impregnated with some conditioner.

I use Comfort Pure which has no smell. I've used conditioner for years and use it on everything except towels. I'll try a wash without it and see if it makes any difference the next time I do washing.

I think they are many products on the market that could be in the waste of money bracket, many that have become more of a habit than anything else. I've never used FC, all in all its not a bad idea in these expensive time to take a look of items we could do without using.
The saving could make a big difference to your total shopping bill.

I don't use any, and my laundry detergent...persil...leaves a faint scent. How many smells do I need?

[nicebloke1]

there are^^

[windywillow]

I use Persil too, don't know if there's any conditioner in it but I like the faint smell it leaves on my washing.

I don't add any extra conditioner.

I use a tablespoon of soda crystals in every wash it helps to keep limescale at bay and softens the water so no need for fabric softener and a lot cheaper

I have heard that one before Margotester. I must try that. One thing for sure, I have bought my last bottle of conditioner!!

[retrocop]

When I do the laundry I use none. My wife uses either Lenor, comfort or Sainsbury's own but only on her clothes. She won't use it on towels as she prefers the texture a bit rough and doesn't use it on sheets and pillowcases.

[Bobbisox1]

I use Fairy mild

[Old_Geezer]

Well, retro, from what I've read, if your wife likes rough towels she definitely ought to be using conditioner on them. As I recall, it messes with absorbance. Advice seemed to be to just wash in water to try undo the process and bring back towel softness.

[Gill1941]

Never use it. Don't like synthetic smells anywhere.
Washing smells lovely just brought in off the line.

[Kaishe48]

I use Ariel and Lenor Chic. Even visitors can smell the fragrance walking up the path as the washing is on the line.
