Purex Crystals and Jockey Review & Giveaway

I am always on the look out for more natural alternatives for my household. Fabric softener is one of those things that I know causes residue on my clothes, but I just like the smell too much to give it up. But now Purex has come up with something brand new and very original. Purex Complete Crystals Softener are 92% natural, and unlike most fabric softeners, they are not made with oils which allow dirt to stick to fabrics.

When I first saw the sample bottle I received from Purex, I thought it was it was bath salts, because that is exactly what it looks like.  The bottle is clearly marked to show you exactly what portion you need to use. A little bit really goes a long way with this stuff. You just toss a little into the wash. When you move it over to the dryer it automatically softens and fluffs up all your clothes. As an added bonus, it also smells amazing. I got to try the Tropical Splash variety but I am also dying to try out the lavender. I made sure to try it out on the Jockey Bra that I was sent along with the crystals, and there is no better test than work out clothes when you are looking for fresh, clean clothes. After just one wash, all the sweaty bra, as well as my son's stinky basketball clothes, came out smelling better than new, and that scent lingered well into my next workout routine.

In addition to leaving clothes fresh and soft, Purex also provides many other advantages.  The lack of oils will make  your towels more absorbent.  It keeps children safe by helping children's sleep wear retain its flame retardant qualities.  Plus its safe to use on all your active wear. And these are just a few of the reasons you should give Purex a try.
