NEW PRODUCT! Purex Complete Crystals Softener (Get a coupon too!)

I was recently selected to try a BRAND NEW, not-even-in-stores-yet, product from Purex.  (It was the mystery box delivered last week.)

It’s a new fabric softener in crystal form.  Amazing!

I was sworn to secrecy to not talk about until 12/28.  It’s supposed to be released at WalMart stores today.

Reading about the product, I’m instantly a fan because one if it’s features is protecting the absorbency of your towels!  Oil-based fabric softeners cause your towels to lose their ability to absorb water (throwback to elementary science – oil and water don’t mix).  I don’t use fabric softener when I was my kitchen towels and washcloths.  But every now and then, hubs will put a kitchen towel in with a bath towel load of clothes.  It ruins the kitchen towel!  There’s nothing like splashing water on the counter when you’re doing dishes and throwing the kitchen towel over it to soak up the mess – and it doesn’t soak it up!

One thing I learned when I was reading about the product is that oil-based fabric softeners also break down the flame-retardant chemicals on children’s sleepwear, making them less flame retardant!  But not the new Purex Crystals!

Here is the information I was sent on New Purex Complete Crystals:

WHAT IT IS > UNIQUE CRYSTAL FORM, 92% NATURAL FABRIC SOFTENER
Introducing Purex® Complete Crystals SoftenerTM (Safe for use in both Standard and High Efficiency (HE) washers); a purer way to get laundry that
smells clean and fresh for weeks. 92% natural, this product’s unique crystal form works
differently than traditional oil-based softeners that coat fabrics with oily residue, because
it infuses fibers with long-lasting fragrance. In addition, since you add it directly with your
laundry, this means no more waiting for the rinse cycle, no messy residual gunk in your
washing machine, and no more stains from spilling liquid fabric softener.
HOW IT’S USED > ADDED WITH LAUNDRY AT THE START OF THE WASH CYCLE
Why struggle with plastic fabric softener balls, risk staining your clothes or waste time
waiting for the rinse cycle? Simply add Purex Complete Crystals Softener directly with
your laundry at the beginning of every wash cycle to infuse fabrics with long lasting
freshness.
HOW IT WORKS > CRYSTALS DISSOLVE INFUSING FABRICS WITH FRESHNESS
Laundry scent lovers will perk up as freshness is infused into clothes with this new fabric
softener. Over time, traditional oil-based softeners coat fibers causing harmful oily
residue to accumulate. Purex Complete Crystals Softeners penetrate fabrics to reduce
fiber entanglement and smooth frayed fibers providing a naturally soft feel.
WHY IT’S DIFFERENT > SAFE FOR ALL LAUNDRY AND BETTER FOR FABRICS
Do ALL of your laundry—worry free! Purex Complete Crystals Softeners are safe for
all laundry and will not harm, wear down or discolor your fabrics like oil-based softeners.
Safe for all fabrics, including baby clothes, athletic wear, towels, and whites. Unlike other
softeners, Crystals WILL:
• Preserve the flame retardant benefits of your children’s clothes
• Retain your athletic wear’s wicking ability which draws sweat away from your body
• Maintain your towels’ built-in ability to absorb water
• Keep your white clothing from yellowing and graying vs. using traditional softeners
The product won’t harm your clothes and is safe and convenient for the entire family!
