{CLOSED} Purex With Zout Gets the Stains Out! {Review & Giveaway} TWO WINNERS!


If you've got a toddler or pre-schooler, you may be thinking that stains are just a way of life. I can't even begin to tell you how many adorable outfits I've had to throw away because Angelica's spilled chocolate milk on it, or rolled in the mud and gotten some unknown outdoor stain on it, or done something to wind up with the mystery toddler stain. (You know the one I'm talking about...the stain that looks like couldn't possibly have come from anything in your house and yet there it is!)

I recently tried Purex with Zout, and I have to say I'm pretty impressed! This laundry detergent + enzyme remover gets out most toddler/preschooler-related stains (Yes, even the mystery kind) and comes in both Fresh Morning Burst scent and Free and Clear (both formulas are hypoallergenic, but the Free and Clear is free of dyes and fragrances).


Having used Purex with Zout, I can say that in most cases, these stains are history! (And if not, a good second run through the wash will usually get it out!) With its triple-enzyme power, Purex with Zout does a pretty good job of getting out most stains.

Take Angelica's white shorts as an example. I've often wondered why they make toddler clothes in white...and why I keep buying them. These shorts are no exception. Angelica wore these after we got home from her third birthday party. I gave her another cupcake that evening and she promptly smeared chocolate frosting all over the pants. And then they wound up in her hamper for a few days so the chocolate really got a chance to stain the pants.

I swear that's chocolate!

One time through the wash, without even adding bleach, and here's how the pants did!

Stain? What stain?

If that's not a testament to the power of Purex with Zout I don't know what is!

Want more information? Check out the Purex with Zout Fact Sheet (PDF).
