Receive $25 to Spend at The Laundress

Laundress-11

As much as we love to talk about clothing and curating the perfect closet, we seem to ignore one crucial step in achieving wardrobe bliss: laundry day. I’ve been brand loyal to Tide for years. It’s what my parents used when I was growing up, I brought Tide Pods to use in the college laundry room, and I’ve tried just about every version of liquid Tide since. I had been happy enough with my laundry — until The Laundress made me realize I had been led astray. The brand sent over three products for me to try: Signature Detergent, Wool & Cashmere Shampoo, and Wool & Cashmere Spray. I’m a convert.

The first item I tried was the Signature Detergent on a Sunday #CleanSheetDay! (The best day of the week.) The detergent’s light scent, according to the website, blends “lily of the valley and jasmine with sweet musk, sandalwood, and a touch of citrus.” It’s a balanced scent that is neither too feminine nor too masculine. Of course, a fragrance can only win me over for so long. The true test came after the washing and drying cycle. I prefer white sheets and thought that my standard detergent was doing its job. One round with The Laundress made me realize that my whites weren’t living up to their crisp, bright potential. Game changer. (I didn’t experience such a noticeable improvement with colors, but I assume it’s better than what I had been using.)

Next up: the Wool & Cashmere items. I actually mentioned that I was interested in these products, so I was pretty excited that The Laundress sent them along. Finally, something to curb the boatload of money I hand over to the dry cleaner each winter! I tested out the shampoo on a couple of sweaters, starting with one of Dave’s naturally. The fragrance combines “sandalwood, orange, and rose with a base of cedar” to create a “sweet and spicy blend that naturally repels moths and critters.” When you’re hand washing sweaters, a little product goes a long way. I used a quarter of a cap full to wash two sweaters and had a difficult time getting out all of the suds. After four rinses, I rolled up the sweaters in a towel to gently blot out as much water as possible and dried them flat.  In between washes, the spray does a fantastic job of freshening things up.

I assume you’re eager to step up your laundry day game by now. The Laundress is giving you a $25 voucher to spend just for posting an Instagram or Pin sharing your #IAmTheLaundress moment. It doesn’t even have to include the products. Just share your laundry day with the brand, tag it, and fill out this form. I can’t wait to hear your thoughts on the products!

LISTEN
Head down hip hop’s memory lane with a scrolling audio timeline of the Billboard Top Ten from 1989 to 2015.

SAVE
I wanted to chat about my experience with The Laundress products this week, but I ran into some technical difficulties with our computer that left me in a blog drought for a few days. I’ll get to it on Monday (fingers crossed). In the meantime, snap a photo of your laundry day chores and post it to Instagram with #IamTheLaundress. Then, fill out this form for a $25 voucher to spend at The Laundress!

WEAR
I’m late to the cropped flare bandwagon, but I’m eager to jump aboard now that I came across this pair (also in a darker wash here). Here are tips on how to try the trend.

RELAX
At this point, I’m in the kids-after-33 camp. Everyone seems to have their opinions about older mothers, but those who naturally conceive later in life might enjoy a longer life.

HIDE
Stop looking like a DJ with a gigantic headphones. Instead, disguise a pair of ear buds in a statement pendant.

GIGGLE
Have you seen Tiffany Beveridge’s hilarious take on toddler fashion? I’m eager to pick up her book featuring the fictional pint-size fashionista Quinoa.
