FAQs

What makes Satin Suds household products different from commercial cleaners?

We use simple, effective ingredients like goat milk soap, washing soda, and oxygen bleach — no harsh synthetics, no mystery chemicals. Our formulas clean powerfully while being gentle on skin, surfaces, and the environment.

Are your laundry and dish powders really natural?

Yes. Every ingredient is chosen for safety, biodegradability, and performance. We avoid borax, phosphates, optical brighteners, and synthetic fragrances — common in commercial formulas but linked to irritation and buildup.

Why do you use goat milk soap in laundry powder?

Goat milk soap is a natural surfactant that lifts dirt while softening fabrics. It’s gentle enough for skin contact and adds a creamy, luxurious feel to the wash.

What is sodium percarbonate, and is it safe?

Sodium percarbonate is a non-toxic oxygen bleach. It breaks down into water, oxygen, and soda ash — sanitizing and whitening without chlorine or fumes.

How do your products handle hard water?

We include sodium citrate and citric acid to soften water and prevent mineral buildup. This helps your washer and dishwasher run more efficiently and keeps clothes and dishes residue-free.

Do your products disinfect or deodorize?

Yes. Ingredients like sodium percarbonate and baking soda tackle odors and sanitize naturally. Essential oils add freshness without synthetic masking agents.

Are Satin Suds products safe for sensitive skin?

Absolutely. We avoid common irritants and use skin-friendly ingredients like goat milk, baking soda, and Epsom salt. Our laundry powder is borax-free and our dish powder is free from dyes and synthetic perfumes.

Can I use Satin Suds products for baby clothes or pet items?

Yes. Our formulas are gentle enough for baby laundry, pet bedding, and even sensitive breeds. Always test a small batch first if your pet has known sensitivities.

Why do commercial cleaners use so many chemicals?

Many mass-market products prioritize shelf life, artificial scent, and aggressive performance over safety. They often contain surfactants, preservatives, and brighteners that can irritate skin, pollute water, and leave residues.

What’s the Satin Suds philosophy on clean living?

We believe clean should feel comforting, not clinical. Our household products are handcrafted with the same care as our personal care line — blending natural science with soulful intention for a home that feels safe, fresh, and aligned.
