  • When people say "my clothes have never been cleaner" it always felt like a scam -- until now. Seriously, my clothes are so clean! Scents are mild and natural, plus there's an unscented if it's not your vibe. Love the detergent, love the recyclability, love the deep clean my clothes are getting. This is my new default detergent.

  • I hate all the plastic that laundry detergent uses - those huge heavy bottles, the pods (even the “eco” ones leach microplastics into water), the eco sheets that aren’t really eco. And while I line the smell of fresh laundry, I don’t care for the toxins that come with fragrance. The Dirty Labs comes in an aluminum bottle (yay!) and the Marsaki has an incredible scent -truly. Now if they could just reduce the price- it’s concentrated so a little goes a long way, but I still seems to finish it pretty quickly.

  • Can't entirely discern the difference from an overall clean laundry perspective. That being said I guess it is good that it is nontoxic.

  • Such a great product and thank you for the experience of trying it! I like the compact size but still the full punch for what needs done ✔️

  • Awesome product

    Trying this product was a great opportunity. I think that the ingredients and the overall product itself has been very impressive and I’m looking forward to trying it again.

  • I bought two scents and they were both amazing. Laundry detergent can be so toxic so I was so happy with how well these cleaned and left my clothes smelling great but not like aggressive detergents. Bottles were also sleek and easy to store. The silicone pour cap was also a nice touch and made things easy to measure!

  • I love the scent, it’s not overpowering and seems very calming. I’ve used it several times with good results. Hopefully I’ll be challenging it more in the future. It is a bit more costly than others I have used though.

  • The small amount required for a full load of laundry worked great, and smelled fantastic! The laundry felt & smelled clean and fresh. I love the non- plastic recyclable container.

    Thanks for taking the time to leave a review, Eleanor! One thing that helps keep the bottle from getting sticky is pouring the detergent slowly and then twisting the bottle at the end of the pour. Then you put the silicone beaker (detergent and all) into the washing machine drum or the detergent tray. That way all of the detergent gets used and your beaker comes out clean. We also now offer a glass dispenser with a pump!

  • Cleans well, smells nice but subtle, no large plastic container, no harmful ingredients.

  • I got the laundry starter kit and the detergent makes my clothes smell phenomenal and feel so much better. I also got the kit in March and haven’t even made a dent in my stash of detergent.

  • My FAVORITE detergent. Yes it’s great for the environment, but it actually outperforms on stain removal in the wash vs all the “recommended” brands you can buy. I was shocked. Smells great, works beyond great, and is safe for the planet-it’s a no brainer for me.

  • I recently had the opportunity to pick up a Dirty Labs Product from Whole Foods at a discounted price in exchange for my honest thoughts and feedback. Upon trying this product, I was a little taken back by the size of the cap which is basically used to measure the amount of detergent per load. The detergent is concentrated and it does state that on the instructions. After washing a load of laundry and hanging them to dry, as I always do, I was quite impressed with the results and more so that a tiny cap of detergent worked pretty well. I have to say that the Dirty Labs detergent works well and I will be purchasing again in the future. I recommend the Dirty Labs Laundry Detergent to all of my friends and family.

  • Tried the 2-in-1 Bio Enzyme Dishwasher Detergent + Booster in the Free & Clear (Fragrance Free) as well as Aestival (Yuzu, Geranium, Lemon Balm)! Both do a fantastic job but I have leaned more towards the fragrance free, I feel like it works better than the scented one. They both do a fantastic job on my dishes nonetheless and I’m nearly finished with job containers (I switch back and forth). I’ve started noticing that residue is still left behind (I do use the recommended scoop size for load size) and occasionally I have noticed a dish not get all the way clean but each product still does the job and doesn’t leave my glasses tasting weird (which is a big plus)!

  • I love the fact that one little cap of this stuff cleans a whole load of laundry. I just wish the amazing scent was just a little bit stronger. I’m probably in the minority, but I like opening the dryer and smelling like essential oils. Otherwise, this stuff packs a punch! I bought one in each scent, and I love them both!

    Thanks for taking the time to leave a review, Dara! We're sorry to hear the scent strength wasn't what you were expecting. For safety and environmental reasons, we've created our products to leave subtle scents after washing, but we do offer scent oil for the dryer balls in both Signature and Murasaki if you're wanting a boost!

  • Best smelling detergent! I use such a small amount and it cleans my full load. Even clothes dirtied by my Labrador Retriever!

  • I've been using dirty labs for a couple years now! They are fantastic! All of their products smell and work amazingly well! They also have the best unscented stuff too. My partner and I are both chefs, so we always have all forms and sorts of stains. Dirty labs always removes and lift them from our chef jackets with few problems. Their detergent is great by itself, but in combination with the Stain remover+Booster, it really works well to remove stains and odors. Their dishwasher detergent is also fantastic, and is one of the only eco friendly brands that actually work well. I've tried several others and each time I feel like they either are not very powerful, or leave behind a film or something. Dirty labs always leave my dishes clean and shiny! Their scents are also amazing by themselves too, I even have their candle! If you need a product that actually works, and also happens to be both eco friendly, and non toxic, Dirty Labs is without question a good Brand!

  • So happy to have tried Dirty Labs! I picked a bottle up from Whole Foods and the Murasaki scent is SO nice! I had just come back from a 10 day vacation and really needed some stinky stuff washed and it did the trick. I like how effective it cleaned for such a small container. I can't wait to try the other scents!

  • I've tried both the Laundry and Dishwashing products. Both work well in terms of cleaning, for green products they are among the most effective. Very very subtle scents. The downside is the packaging of both is terrible, very messy. Almost always some powder ends up on my countertop and/or floor, and the liquid detergent bottle is always sticky with drips. I continue to buy because its so effective, but I removed a star for packaging issues throughout the line.

  • I didn’t love the smell for the price point. Ended up returning because it smelled too strong and I knew it would irritate my skin.
