Laundry is a necessary evil



I have to admit that I'm not a big fan of laundry. Well, let me clarify, I'm not a big fan of folding laundry. Laundry itself isn't so bad. There's something satisfying about dumping all the dirty clothes in, getting to choose lotions and potions from the supply of nearly free couponed accouterments I have acquired, and pulling out spanking clean yummy smelling garments at the end. With all the money you put into clothes, it's frustrating when your whites start to fade or you have color bleed. Who separates colors anymore anyways? When I received a sample of Carbona Color Run Remover in the mail with the request that I try it and give my opinion I was stoked. I love freebies and I'm opinionated. Score.






I wrangled up a little 'test' group to give it a go. I selected a baby sleeper with a bleed stain on it, a few of my husband's work shirts (if it whitened these I would know we were in business), a white dress shirt of mine, and bedding that was starting to look dingy. Don't mind the adorable model. He wanted to help.


Anyways, In the wash they went. Highest water setting and as hot as possible.


The final results were impressive on the white tees and bedding. Sadly, it didn't get the stain on the sleeper out. In it's defense, I inherited it and I'm not 100% sure that it is a color bleed stain. All in all I would give this product a B+ for the job it did cleaning up a few dingy items.








I wrote this review while participating in a test campaign by Carbona and received a product sample to test. All opinions are my own and I have not been compensated for them.
