Just compare Extreme18X to other detergents! What a significant waste difference!
I am a huge fan of the simplicity and safety without excess waste of using soap nuts for all my laundry needs (including those cloth diapers)! Soap nuts grow on trees! We have discussed all the wonderful benefits of using soap nuts here and from our previous giveaway here, and now we want to introduce you to the liquid version! As I shared before, Soap Nuts are the only laundry soap that grows on trees, thus giving us the most sustainable and natural option out there. It is 100% safe and natural for the most sensitive skin. Soap nuts are the dried fruit of the Chinese Soapberry tree. They contain saponin, a natural cleaner. They are simply harvested, de-seeded, and then dried in the sun. Great for hard water and high efficiency machines. It is biodegradable, hypo-allergenic, brightens colors, low sudsing, and contains a natural fabric softener.
Now NaturOli offers another product that makes it even more simple and convenient to use soap nuts – enter Extreme 18X liquid detergent! You only have to use 1/2 teaspoon per load of laundry as it is a highly concentrated 18x potency. I have been experimenting with the Extreme 18X liquid detergent and I really love it. It cleans well, smells fresh and produces soft clothing. My tip: make sure to use a measuring spoon to measure it out per load. It is so easy to use too much when you simply squirt it into your washer. Extreme 18X works in your dishwasher as well! Simply squirt about 1/2 teaspoon in your dishwasher dispenser and away you go! I have also diluted it with water in a spray bottle for a gentle and effective household all-purpose cleaner with great success. This is a multi-purpose all natural alternative that avoids excess waste. See that picture on the left? Compare that weight and packaging and see how much better soap nuts are for our environment.
Now, you can win a sample of the Extreme18X liquid detergent! This sample offers you 1 ounce of
This is the sample you could win!
liquid detergent that will yield 12 high efficiency (HE) loads or 6 standard loads – or more! If you have been skeptical of the wonders of soap nuts, this is your opportunity to sample the most concentrated, effective, green laundry detergent on the market.

I think I’m also going to try grinding some of them into a powder and using it as a household scrub and possibly for a few other things I have up my sleeve!
I haven’t tried them yet, but am very excited to. Thanks, Lindsay, for the great giveaway!
I had never heard about soap nuts until I read your earlier posts on them, and I am always trying to find natural alternatives, especially since I’m expecting a baby in a couple months (hoping you’re right about the cloth diapers :p )! So, I ordered the sampler from NaturOli, and I loved them, I’m getting ready to order a bigger batch, but I would love to try the detergent too!
My hubby and I just got married and are about to purchase our first washing machine. I would love to try Soap Nuts as we try and make healthy and environmentally friendly choices in our new home!
This is the first time hearing of soapnuts, and one area I wish to be more eco-friendly. I try to line dry as much as possible, so save money on energy and protect our enviro for our future adults.
Thanks for re-mentioning such an innovative/smart idea!
I haven’t tried soap nuts yet, but would love to! It seems like the best detergent alternative on the market.
I have just begun using soap nuts and like them, but would love to try the liquid version!

After reading about Soap Nuts on your site, I found some at Whole Foods and bought them. But now I’m kinda afraid to use them. Do they really work??
I am very curious to try soap nuts! This is the first time I’ve heard of them and would be very interested to learn more!

I have not tried Soap Nuts, but I sure would like to! I make my own laundry soap, but my husband is trying to help me streamline a bit. Finding a detergent that I can trust, and not have to spend time making, would be awesome!
Thanks for the opportunity.
In June we sent our 17-year old daughter off on a Missions trip in Nepal. Just days before she left, we both read your post on soap nuts, so she was determined to find some soap nuts in Nepal (directly below China). Just this Friday she returned from her trip and brought me back soap nuts — YEAH!! I haven’t tried them yet, but am very anxious to.
Please enter us in this give-away contest. We’re anxious to use soap nuts products.
Thank you!
Great giveaway! I hope I win.
I haven’t tried these yet, but they’ve been on my radar. i have a huge supply of detergent so I haven’t bought any yet, but I think they are my next purchase.
I am really excited about a liquid version of this and love that it can be used for multiple uses
Hey! I am super excited to try this out soon. With two kidlets I do a lot of landry and am looking for a frugal and natural alternative to what I have been using. With my husband in grad school it wouldn’t hurt to save money on such a commonly used household product.
I’d love to be entered in the giveaway! I have only recently heard about Soap Nuts and am completely intrigued, I’d love to try it out before purchasing my own supply.
I have not tried soap nuts, but would be interested in giving them a try…my husband and I are trying to do things more naturally, and these would be a great expirement. Thanks for the opportunity!

I’d love to enter! I’ve never used them before
Would love to try out soap nuts. Interested in being more aware of natural methods to doing daily activities (i.e. washing laundry, dishes)
I would love to give this a try. I have used several natural/eco friendly detergents and do like them very much. But I love to try and compare different products, always searching for the BEST! I’ve heard alot of things about Soap Nuts particularly and have always wanted to try them, just haven’t given it a shot yet.
Would love to win a sample! I’ve been wanting to try soap nuts for a while and the liquid form sounds ever better!
I’ve only been a follower for a few weeks, and this is first I have heard of Soapnuts. What a wonderful thing! I would love to be entered to win a sample. I’m always looking for ways to “green” up our life without complicating it, and this product seems to be on its way to that list. Thanks!!
I have been intrigued by the option of soap nuts as a laundry detergent since your first post on it. I would enjoy a chance to try it out.
Haven’t tried them yet, but really, really want to!
I have never tried Soap Nuts, but I have been wondering about them since you first mentioned them.
I would love to try this!! Thank you!
Please enter me in the contest. Thank you!
(I have not tried soap nuts, but make our soap b/c of our young children, my sensitive skin, and environmental concerns….I would love to try them out!)
definitely going to try the soap nuts – as soon as I use up my current jug of detergent! I love the whole idea, and once again thank you for your blog – it’s been such an inspiration and blessing since I started reading it a few months ago…
I would love to try soap nuts!
I tried soapnuts after reading your first post about them. I had run out of detergent for my diapers right before vacation and ran into the natural food store to get some. I saw them on the shelf and decided to give them a try. I never would have if I hadn’t read your review. They work great with our diapers and a very easy to use. I also love that I can compost them too. Using them with diapers I don’t get as many uses out of them as I can with other clothes but it’s still worth the price in comparison to some options I’ve used. Thanks for all the great suggestions. I’m always in search of more cost effective and environmentally friendly ways to do things!
Yikes! That’s a lot of comments. I don’t think I even have 20 people who read my blog. Keeping my fingers crossed!
I have seen a demo of soap nuts but never tried them. I would love to win! Thanks!
Hi:) I am so interested in trying this product. It is so amazing to me how much God loves us to make this wonderful plant for our enjoyment and health! He is truly amamzing:)
I have been using soapnuts for a short time, and so far I really like them.
Elizabeth
this is the first that I have heard of Soap Nuts. I would love the opportunity to try it out.
I haven’t tried Soap Nuts yet, but I’d really like to. I bought a 22-gallon pail of powdered laundry detergent from Sam’s Club six months ago, but I’d like to try alternatives that are better for the environment and for us. I have very sensitive skin and we just moved to a home with a well and water softener.
I haven’t tried these yet, but have been curious since you first mentioned them. Currently I have been using a homemade laundry soap.
I use cloth diapers and am trying to be as eco-friendly as I can on a budget. I would love to try this product!
