If you cloth diaper, then you know the importance of being picky with what detergent you use to get them clean. You have to think about… is the soap going to leave a build up?… Is it going to all rinse out of my diapers?… Is it going to get my diapers clean?… Is it tough enough to get the stink out of the diaper?… and is it safe to use on my diapers?
Well, I must say The Laundry Tarts cover all these concerns and then some. Their all natural detergent has no chlorine, Phosphates, Sodium Lauryl, Parabens, Phthalates, Edta, or animal products in it. This leaves you with a environmentally safe detergent that not only will not harm the environment but is kind to your skin as well. The Laundry Tarts have made a commitment to use only safe ingredients in all their products, everything is completely biodegradable including the bag it comes in.
I, for one, am a very skeptical person when it comes to trying new detergents. I guess I used to think that “if it doesn’t foam then it’s not getting my clothes clean”. Was I ever wrong! Thankfully I was introduced to The Laundry Tarts.
On the bag it says that all you need to use is 2-4 TBSP per load and half of that for the water saving front loaders. I have an old school top loader and seriously wondered if 4TBSP of soap was going to truly cut it. I proceeded with my normal cold soak, hot wash, cold rinse, and then a second rinse. When the load was finished it was time to pull them out and put them in the dryer. I immediately noticed that the diapers had a “clean smell”… not a perfume or fragrance… just a good fresh clean smell. When it was time to pull them out of the dryer I noticed right away how super white they were! They looked and smelled clean, there were no foamy suds and they still came out clean…. wow was I ever wrong!
So I had to do it. I tried The Laundry Tarts on regular clothes because having kids means you have tough stains. My son recently started playing soccer and his grass stained knees come clean! To treat them I got the knees wet, applied a little of the stick and used a bristle brush to scrub them a little to work up a lather. Then I rinsed it and tossed them in the washer… they come out pearly white.
I would have to say this stick is simply amazing! It has worked wonders on even blood stains. Other products use harsh chemicals to remove stains that end up not rinsing out properly and they leave a residue behind that can cause skin rashes, allergic reaction, or aggravate any skin with eczema and psoriasis. Why would I choose to switch back to a chemical product to wash my cloth diapers when I can use a chemical free product like The Laundry Tarts that works better?!
Above is a picture of what happened when my 20 month old daughter decided to drink orange pop by herself. We were 2 hours away from home and so it sat and dried on her new white pants for 8 hours. I used The Laundry Tarts Stain stick on the stain. I first wet the pants, rubbed on the stick and used a soft brush to work up a lather, then rinsed them and washed as normal…. simply AMAZING!
I was excited to hear that The Laundry Tarts also has a new product called Strip It! It is meant for anyone needing to strip any unwanted odors, residue, or heavy soiling. Just like all their other products, it is safe to use with any water type and fabrics. Strip It! can be used on anything from your linens to getting out a carpet stain. I used Strip It! on my husbands smelly work clothes and wow! … I’m sure he went to work being the best smelling man there! I also use it on my cloth diapers to strip any unwanted smells or residue out.
Thankfully The Laundry Tarts has a great menu of scents to choose from. They carry scents like Key Lime Pie, Pina Colada, Rootbeer Float and Strawberry Shortcake and those are just a few of their great scents. If scented isn’t for you there is a Plain Jane -unscented for anyone that has problems with a fragrance. The fragrances are not left behind in your clothes or diapers, you just enjoy the scent as you put it in the washer. The scent rinses out great leaving a crisp fresh smell and clean clothes or diapers.

It sounds good. I think The Laundry Tarts is great. So, i want to use this detergent to make my clothes bright, clean and super smelly. Thanks for informing us about this great detergent.
Oh, I am SO glad you explained the source of that stain. I kept looking at it and thinking those shorts looked like my son’s boxer-briefs and, well, I *know* what that stain would be from if it were on his undies. Nice to know you weren’t giving us all an eyeball of poopy drawers. LOL
This looks really good. I’ll go check out their website now. Thanks!
I have heard nothing but great things about Laundry Tarts!!! I so want to try this!
I would love to try this detergent. I have the stain remover and I love it!
I need the laundry stick my baby is always putting her “grubby” hands on my clothes and staining them lol
I love the scents! Pina Colada would be my first choice! LOL
I love the laundry tarts! Though, I’ve yet to use the stain stick. Amazing, how well it works!
I have never tried this brand, bu looks like it works great. Perfect for a messy 4 year old.
I have never heard of this brand but I really love all the different scents!
I’d like to try black forest cake.
I want that stick! I am so tired of dd’s clothes getting stained and NOTHING I have tried natural or chemical gets all of the stains out. It doesn’t help that we have extremely hard water!
I’m currently using Bum Genius Laundry Detergent on my Bum Genius diapers. I figured that would make sense, but I just don’t feel like my diapers are coming out as fresh and clean as I would like them to. I wonder if Laundry Tarts would work for us. The scents sure do look tempting!
I love that LT is vegan!
I love that they have a plain jane unscented smell.
That stick works like magic! I cannot believe how white it got those pants!
I’d like to try their products. I’ve heard many good things. Can you use the stain stick on cloth diaper stains?
I love the packaging The Laundry Tarts uses.
What yummy scent combinations… root beer float, pina colada and strawberry shortcake!
It’s almost hard to believe how great that stain remover stick is wow!
Wow! It really got that orange soda stain out!
Wow this sounds great, the before and after photos are great. I love the look of their menu too, so cute.
Oh man, I want to try out the Birthday Cake scent! I have never gotten to try Laundrey Tart’s but have read many great reviews!
There are alot of benefits to the products that you reviewed! The stain stick seems like an amazing alternative to the sprays we have used in the past. The Strip It formula sounds like it would be a wise investment for any cloth diapering parent. The regular laundry detergent is environmentally safe and works on cloth diapers! I’m game for all of them! Plus, how can you go wrong with your clothes smelling like cakes and pies?!?!
Thanks for the review, i love the cute packaging!
I love that Stain Stick too! And they have so many yummy scents. I’d love to try the root beer float scent. Mmmm!
This stuff sounds great. I love that it is chemical free as both my step daughter and I have sensitive skin and mild eczema. I really want to try this!
That Laundry Stick looks amazing! I want to try it because my daughter has stained sooo many pieces of clothing!
I’m very intrigued by the stipping formula (and its method)! Thanks for the info!
Love this detergent. I recommend it to everyone.
i really would love to try that stain stick… so many stain removers don’t seem to actually work!
im very into pina coladas so id love to try that scent! im interested in how the strip in works.. ive never seen a specific detergent for it!
Love that the bags are biodegradable! Good job!!
I make my own laundry soap but need something to boost it every once in a while this might be what I have been looking for.
i would love to try the stain stick!
I would love to see if that stain remover works on red Gatorade or banana stains. Nothing I have found does. Chemical or not. Also would love to try some Banana bread strip it on some of my inserts.
cool stuff! i’ve read great things about this product and would love to try it out!
Wow…this sounds awesome! Now I just have to remember I want this when I have money again…Mommie brain!
How does it work with hard well water?
Love the different flavors!
I have just started CDing and bought RnG based on a friend’s review, but I am very intrigued to try this product! My husband’s work clothes always carry a stink to them, and his white shirts DO NOT stay white! I think this product might help solve all those problems, and work for our diapers too! Plus the scents sound so good!
I don’t remember the last time my pocket diapers and MF inserts came out looking *white*
Maybe I need to try this!
I love their yummy-sounding scents!
Wow! I love all the neat products from The Laundry Tarts. I’ve been wanting to try the Detergent for quite some time now but didn’t know they offered other laundry options. I’m sold on your examples of the stain stick, wow!
That stick is absolutely amazing. I love all the scent choices too!! Pina colada yum!
Wow, I can’t believe it took the orange stain right out. You’re right, amazing! I love the packaging as well!
im super impressed with the sweet spot stain remover stick, i cant even get the chemical ones to work on blood!! cant wait to try this!
I’ve been reading a lot of blogs about cloth diapers and this is the first I’ve heard of Laundry Tarts, thanks! I really like the sound of the stick for stains, I feel the product I use right now works well but I have to rinse it a lot, it would be nice not to have to do that.
I love the idea of cleaning with out sls and I also like that there is no real scent except clean I have very sensitive skins so maybe with this soap I might not have to twice rinse my clothing.
I’ve never heard of this company before, but I’d love to try them. Their scents look yummy!
Do you still use half the recommended amount 1-2TBSP for diapers? I’d be skeptical that would be enough
Wait, so this is chemical free? Glad you tried this and told us about it–sounds like a wonderful product. Do you have anyone with sensitive skin in the house?
I love all of the scent options for this soap!! I am new to cloth diapering and would love to get to try out the stain fighting ability of the stain stick as my little one grows and begins to make me have to learn how to tackle tough stains!!
I’m impressed by that stain stick! I’m very picky about my cloth diaper soap and so far I have found I can only use Allen’s Naturally. I’d love to give this product a try though. And such cute packaging!!
I would love to win some of this. I have been wanting to try this stuff out. I love the detergent “menu”
You make this stuff sound amazing! I am so interested in the Strip It. I am book marking their website for sure!
I love the laundry tarts and all of their different flavors :]
Thanks for a great review. I would love to try the laundry stick because I am the worst about washing stains right away… they always sit too long. But your photos prove it works! And I’d love to try the different scents!
wow amazed by the stick!!
I love the laundry tarts! Their products are awesome especially the stain stick and the scents smell so good but don’t leave any scent behind which is perfect.
Wow! That is some serious stain-busting power!
I think the Apple Pie scent would be delicious!
Wow this stuff sounds totally amazing! I’m surprised what it got out and how littler you need for it to work. Also really good to know that soap doesn’t need to sud to work!! Great review!
I love the packaging it comes in…so cute!
I’m impressed with how clean the stick got those white pants! Might have to get some for my hubby’s clothes.
The stain stick looks amazing!
I definitely am going to try this! thanks for the review 🙂
I would love to try the stripper because my little guy has some pretty strong ammonia smelling diapers plus the stain stick looks amazing. I also think that the detergent looks like it smells yummy.
