Product Reviews by Experts


What I liked most was how well it shifted a more set in stain on one of my tops that I had struggled to remove any other way, and it lifted it without affecting the colour at all. The net cover is such a clever, simple bit of innovation, adding just the right friction to work the soap in. It smells amazing too if you love a naturally scented product, thanks to the Australian Lemon Eucalyptus, and I loved how versatile the bar is, working as a stain remover on clothing, carpet and upholstery as well as a pre-treater for hand or machine washing. I also appreciated the simple ingredients that make it an easy one to feel good about using around the home. What impressed me most is how much genuine thought goes into every detail. I love that so many of the ingredients are sourced locally in Australia, with fair trade coconut oil and palm oil free certification through the Orangutan Alliance, and that it is handmade in Tasmania. The care extends right through the business, from a warehouse run on hydro electricity and an EV fleet to home compostable or recyclable FSC packaging and reusing their soap off cuts.


I absolutely love the ease and simpleness of this product. It worked so incredibly well. I was pleasantly surprised. Having the bar in the netting made it work even better, almost like an exfoliant. And it was also easier to hold on to in the net. Would purchase again! Firstly I loved reading that they actually use the soap offcuts as minimising waste is important to me. I love that it is Tassie made as it’s my home state; I am impressed to read about the company giving back to people who are homeless. I am also just grateful for the ingredient transparency. It’s been a really wonderful and welcome addition to our laundry.


What I liked most about this stain remover was how effective it was on everyday stains without relying on harsh chemicals. I used it on children’s clothing, food stains, and muddy sports uniforms, and it consistently performed well. I also really liked that it came with the net, as it made the bar much easier to hold and use without slipping, especially compared to other stain remover bars I have used in the past. The fresh Australian lemon eucalyptus scent was pleasant without being overpowering, and overall it was a practical product that earned a permanent place in my laundry routine. What impressed me most was the brand’s commitment to making thoughtful choices across every part of the business. I really appreciated their focus on Australian made products, sustainably sourced ingredients, and their Orangutan Alliance certification, demonstrating a commitment to being palm oil free. Their use of renewable hydroelectric power, electric company vehicles, compostable and recyclable packaging, and biodegradable formulations shows a genuine effort to reduce environmental impact. I also admired their commitment to Fairtrade sourcing and donating imperfect soaps to homeless charities rather than letting them go to waste. It is clear they have considered not only the quality of their products, but also the impact they have on people, animals, and the environment.
