Thieves Laundry Soap


Looking for a plant-based laundry soap that's pure and as natural as it gets? Check out the amazing Thieves Laundry Soap from Young Living, which contains the most powerful essential oils on the planet that not only make it smell amazing, but really helps to get things clean. I mean, I use Thieves for cleaning literally everything in my house, and now they've made the best laundry soap I've evert tired.

This little compact bottle does 64 loads of laundry, instead of your typical 32. It's 6x concentrated, so a little goes a long way. I love that its not so cumbersome like those giant jugs of detergent, and doesn't take up a ton of space in my laundry room. 

AND. IT. WORKS.

Stains come out, whites don't get dingy, dirty little people clothes actually come out CLEAN! I can't believe how well it works with only needing to use such a small amount. Like it is bizarre.

Let me walk you through all the ingredients, which is clearly labeled on the bottle - by the way. I didn't need to Google a safety data sheet just to find out.

I've also included each of these ingredients' ratings on the EWG Skin Deep website (this is a database where thousands of products and individual ingredients have been rated for their safety or toxicity). The ratings are on a scale of 1-10, with 1 being the least toxic and 10 being the most toxic. A score of 1-2 is considered the lowest possible hazard and very safe. Every single one of these ingredients found in their database ranks in that very safe category.

What's in Thieves Laundry Soap
  • Water - Obviously some amount of water is necessary to make a liquid.
  • Decyl glucoside - A plant derived nonionic surfactant (cleaning agent) that biodegrades easily. EWG Score - 1
  • Sodium oleate - Derived from olive oil, and ingredient that helps control suds/foaminess. Biodegradable with a EWG Score - 2
  • Glycerin - Used to stabilize the natural cleaning enzymes. EWG Score - 2
  • Caprylyl glucoside - Another plant-derived surfactant that biodegrades easily. EWG Score - 1
  • Lauryl glucoside - Another plant-derived surfactant that biodegrades easily. EWG Score - 1
  • Sodium chloride - that would be simple table salt. It affects the viscosity/thickness of the liquid.
  • Sodium gluconate - A plant-derived anionic surfactant that biodegrades easily. EWG Score - 1
  • Carboxymethyl cellulose - a plant-derived thickener and stabilizer. EWG Score - 1
  • Alpha-amaylase, Protease, Lipase - These are all natural enzymes, which are very effective at breaking down organic particles that make up the stains and dirtiness on your clothes. Without enzymes, your clothes won't be getting nearly as clean. These enzymes are 100% naturally-derived and are completely biodegradable.
  • Essential Oils - Jade Lemon, Bergamot, Clove, Lemon, Cinnamon, Eucalyptus radiata, and Rosemary essential oils. All beautiful, purer-than-pure Young Living essential oils that were carefully chose for their cleansing and purifying properties. Also, they smell unbelievable DELICIOUS.
What it Doesn't Have
  • Optical brighteners - These are chemical ingredients that are added to most laundry detergents. They reject light in a way that makes the clothes appear brighter and whiter. Its basically an optical illusion, that comes at a price. Optical brighteners can survive the wastewater treatment plants and make their way into lakes and streams, polluting the water and causing harm to algae and fish, where they bioaccumulate. Optical brighteners may also case skin irritation and an allergic response in some people.
  • Sodium laurel sulphate (SLS) - You've probably heard of this ingredient before, as so many companies are now claiming their products are free of this potential carcinogenic ingredient. In my research of ingredients in other supposedly "natural" laundry detergents, I found SLS in MANY of them. They claim that it is plant-derived and therefore safe, but the laws are so loose on what can be considered bio-based, that I don't know if this is trustworthy or not. If you try to avoid SLS in your home, I highly recommend Thieves instead.
  • Artificial fragrance - Of course, the only fragrance in Thieves Laundry Soap is Thieves essential oil and other pure essential oils from Young Living. Synthetic fragrances can contain hundreds of chemical with unknown toxicity and potential carcinogens.
  • Water softeners - I noticed that the Thieves Laundry Soap doesn't contain any mineral-based water softeners. So, if you have a moderately to significantly hard water, you probably want to add a simple water softener like Borax or vinegar to prevent mineral buildup. It's cheap, effective, and totally natural.

Common Laundry Detergents

Common Laundry Detergents

When we are considering the health of our family, an area to take a closer look are the products we using in the laundry room. I encourage you to consider the list of ingredients in your laundry detergent. Take each ingredient and check its score according to the Environmental Working Group website (ewg.org).

Once you have stopped using your old laundry detergent for even a month and you go back try to breathe that stuff or anything that's been washed in it, you will thank me. If, for some reason, some article of our clothing gets washed in traditional detergents, I have to wash it multiple times to get that out before I'm comfortable with us using it. Being "free and clear" is a great start, but consider that just because you don't smell fragrances there still may be many of these other ingredient lurking around.

Many families suffer from eczema, respiratory issues, cancer, sensory processing disorders, and autoimmune diseases tat can be triggered or worsened by ingredients found in detergents. Your traditional laundry detergent needs to go. It is literally 24/7 exposure though your respiratory system and skin to horrible things your body as to work hard to process. Strain on your organs. Strain on your health.

What Ingredients Should I Avoid?
  • Fragrance: Manufactures combine a number of chemicals to product a fragrance - so you'll believe your clothes are clean because they smell clean - and they don't have to list those chemicals on the label because of trade protection. Some of these chemicals can be very toxic, but we don't really know what we're really being exposed to!
  • Cleaning Agents (surfactants): These are included in the formula to help product to clean better. Examples include chemicals like 
    • quaternium-15 - known to release formaldehyde, a known carcinogen and used to embalm bodies
    • diethanolamine - linked with skin and eye irrational and possibly liver problems
    • nonlphneol ethoxylate or NPE - toxic to nerves, irritating to skin, potential hormone disruptor, toxic to aquatic life
    • linear alkyl benzene sulfates or LAS - irritating to skin and eyes and toxic to aquatic life. Benzene on its own is a carcinogen
    • petroleum distillates - linked to cancer and lung damage.
  • Stabilizers: These chemicals help stabilize the formula, so that it lasts longer on the shelf. Examples include polyalkylene oxide or ethylene oxide, which are linked with eye and lung irritation, and even dermatitis. And yet we wonder why we can't clear up these lingering skin issues.
  • Bleach: Bleach may be used separately or may be included in the detergent itself. It's know to irrigate skin, eyes, and lungs, and when it mixes with wastewater, it can form toxic organic compounds that have been linked with respiratory issues, liver, and kidney damage.
  • 1,4 dioxane: This is a chemical by-product of detergent manufacturing. In independent tests, Women's Voices for Earth found 90 ppm (parts per million) in Tide Free & Gentle and 63 ppm in Regular Tide. They helped increase awareness, and Proctor & Gamble agreed to reformulate to reduce levels below 25 ppm. Future tests should show whether they made good on that promise. Past history is not looking good - I don't have a lot of confidence in the progress being made here.
  • Brighteners: You'll find these in detergents advertising their "brighting" powers. Brighter whites! Brighter colors! What's causing all this brightness? Chemicals that actually remain on the clothes to absorb UV light and help clothes "appear" brighter. We're talking things like naphthotriazolystilbenes (linked with developmental and reproductive effects), benzoxazolyl, diaminostilbene, disulfonate, and more. Since these remain on the clothes, they are likely to come into contact with skin.
  • Phosphates & EDTA: Manufacturers use these to make detergents more effective in hard water, and to help prevent dirt from settling back on clothes when they're washing. These chemicals have long been associated with environmental damage, particularly in our streams and waterways. They cause algae blooms that damage ecosystems. Many detergents have eliminated these, but they're often using ethylene diamine tetraacetic act (EDTA) in its place, which does not readily biodegrade, and has been found to be toxic in animal studies.
Even though it was hard to break away from detergent I had used for years, I knew that switching to Thieves Laundry Soap was right for me. Ask yourself, "is my health work at least TRYING this out for a little while?" I know you can make the commitment. I want you to be the CEO of your health. Read more here.
