HOW TO USE IT
Before each use, shake the bottle well to mix the ingredients. Make sure it's locked!
Use around 60 to 120 ml of washing liquid per machine, depending on the size of your laundry and how dirty your clothes are.
Baking soda can be powerful, so it's important to check that it's compatible with your fabrics.
The detergent keeps for 1 to 2 months.
Don't make too much of it at a time to avoid your detergent turning sour.
