Dirty Labs reviews and discussion

I love their products, my only complaint is it is pretty pricey. That said, it feels good knowing Im using something that is not full of toxins and is sustainable. The scents are really impressive for a natural brand! And the packaging is very chic

Chic and Effective Dish Soap There’s something no one tells you when you switch to “clean” dish soap: suddenly you’re using half the bottle just to get through a single sink of dishes. Healthier, yes. Effective? Rarely. Dirty Labs is the first brand that’s broken that curse. The moment I pumped their Bio Enzyme Dish Soap it felt different. The texture is -light, and the scent, a blend of yuzu, geranium, and lemon balm, is nothing short of spa-level. (An aside: I am obsessed with anything yuzu.) Most importantly: a tiny drop actually works. One pump cuts through grease the way the old toxic formulas used to minus the endocrine disruptors and the eye-watering synthetic fragrance. The secret is Dirty Labs’ proprietary Phytolase® enzyme technology, which cleans intelligently and efficiently without the usual scrubbing marathon, even in cold water. This is dishwashing elevated: biobased, biodegradable, nontoxic, and genuinely high-performance. A rare moment when the “cleaner” choice is also the better one. Dirty Labs didn’t just reinvent dish soap. They reinvented the entire expectation.

I like the sustainable aspect of this brand. It doesn’t clean my clothes better than what I previously used, but I like how the packaging is recyclable, and if you get the bundles, it comes with a dispenser.

I ordered the starter set that included detergent, enzyme booster, a glass dispenser pump, and dryer balls ($40 + tax, free shipping). It's definitely a great deal compared to how much these items would cost individually from the website. Of course, on it's own $28 for 80 loads worth of laundry detergent is a high price (slightly less in the autoship bundle), comparable to Tide Free & Gentle which is roughly $16 for 80 loads (which I would likely stretch to way more). Regardless of the price I do think it's VERY CONVENIENT to 1)buy all laundry products together from the same place and 2)have confidence these products are sustainable/effective/ethical/not bad for my skin. That being said, I don't really notice the scent from the detergent on my clothes which is a little disappointing, so maybe will add some of their essential oil droplets next time. I do think it's worth the cost to feel clean/smell nice! I also don't really like the flask, you have to pump it so many times to get the full amount of detergent needed for a large load and I would rather just pour from the container. I'll probably continue to use Dirty Labs for the time being, it definitely adds a little luxury to doing laundry which I didn't know I needed but I enjoy it! And everything fits neatly into my little Ikea laundry gear basket which is great :)

I am new to this brand and my first impression is that it’s a great alternative to the big brand laundry detergents. I am super sensation to scents and soaps and I can already notice a difference after washing my sheets one. I suggest giving this brand a try!

I love this!! I was searching for a new detergent and I think I'll stick wit this one for a while. I'm so impressed by how little soap you actually need to clean your clothes, and the smell is wonderful (even with that little dose). I only wish the little silicon measuring cup that comes with it had some way of attaching to the bottle.

I'm so happy with all my purchases from Dirty Labs. The bio laundry detergents work well, and don't leave residue on my clothes. Fragrance free versions are available, but I chose the murasaki scent which is lovely and not too strong. I have a cat who sometimes has accidents when she gets scared, and combining the detergent with the laundry booster has worked wonders getting the scent out of fabrics. I love the brands sustainability mission, and the packaging both looks great and is compact, which is perfect for city apartments where storage space is limited. I appreciate that all the products include measuring cups/spoons. The liquid detergent comes with a little silicone beaker and the laundry boost powder includes a little wooden scoop. I didn't purchase one of the pump dispensers so I definitely would have struggled to measure the liquid without it. The only draw back is the price, but overall I think it's a good cost per load of laundry. Since the products are concentrated, you only need a small amount per wash which makes the bottles last a long time.

We run, hike, and ski, and are always in need of good laundry detergent for our athletic wear but also want to avoid harsh chemicals that are bad for the environment and ourselves. The previous eco detergent we used wasn't very satisfactory - clothes would come out of the wash smelling slightly sweaty and musty. So I was interested in trying Dirty Labs, and am happy to say all our clothes now are so much cleaner and smell so much fresher! It really makes a huge difference. I really like the booster for extra dirty loads and the hand wash/delicates product for wools (previously I had been using shampoo). I also like the recyclable packaging. Price feels slightly expensive but each product seems to last a while. The Murasaki scent is lovely, but maybe slightly strong - next time I might try the unscented version, but feel sure there will be a next time.

I have been a huge fan of this brand for a while. It completely removed my husband's nasty pit stains which were quite embarrassing. A little scrub and a good wash and it was as good as new! I now use a scoop in every load!

As an environmentalist, I love the mindset of this brand. The aluminum packaging is great, the detergent is very effective even on activewear and funky smelling clothes. My only issue is that it’s a bit expensive for what it is and the measuring cup gets sticky and isn’t very precise unless you rinse it out after each use. I love the packaging for the powdered bleach alternative and refill it often. I do liquify it a bit in hot water before adding it to my front load wash so that it dissolves more readily. It’s pretty standard for the kind of whitener that it is so it’s pricey for what you get. I would probably subscribe to the laundry detergent if it were more comparable to what I can get in the grocery store but it was good to try out.

I’ve been using Dirty Labs for a while now, and it’s honestly one of those products I didn’t realize I’d care this much about until I tried it. The first thing I noticed—and appreciated immediately—was the lack of artificial perfume smell. So many detergents and dish soaps try to mask “clean” with overwhelming fragrance, and Dirty Labs does the opposite. Everything just smells neutral and actually clean, which I especially love for clothes, towels, and baby items. Performance-wise, it genuinely delivers. My laundry comes out fresh and soft, even with tougher loads, and I’ve been impressed with how well it handles everyday stains without needing extra products. The dish detergent is just as solid—cuts through grease easily, rinses clean, and doesn’t leave that weird residue some eco brands do. What really seals it for me, though, is the convenience. The packaging is thoughtful, easy to use, and mess-free. The dosing is straightforward, the products last a long time, and it feels like they’ve actually designed everything for real life—not just aesthetics. I also like knowing I’m using something that’s more environmentally responsible without sacrificing effectiveness. Overall, Dirty Labs strikes a rare balance: minimal scent, excellent cleaning power, and a genuinely convenient experience. It’s one of the few household brands I’ve fully switched to and don’t see myself going back from.

Love the subtle scent and the impressive cleaning power. To avoid the problem of drips of detergent running down the outside of the bottle, be sure to pour slowly and then rotate the bottle as the detergent nears the fill line.

The look and feel of Dirty Labs is amazing. I love that the products are more eco-friendly than traditional laundry detergents and dishwasher detergents (by using less water and plastic.) The laundry detergent is just okay - we used it for a “quick wash” and the clothes came out smelling a bit odd. It works on a full wash cycle, but just not on a short cycle. The dishwasher detergent works great!

The items arrived well-packaged—minimal but secure. The candle smells amazing, and I can’t wait to use it during the cooler months! The dish soap works great. I chose the unscented version and use it as directed to clean my dog’s food and water bowls.

Purchased the jasmine detergent gift set for my mom for Christmas and she loves using it for more delicate loads of laundry. Love that the gift pack came with dryer balls too, love using them over dryer sheets.

I was ordering my clean laundry and dish detergent’s from Canada… an Australian brand Bondi Wash was my fav but due to tariffs I no longer have the option 😰 I was eager to try Dirty Labs because it’s accessible and clean! I ordered the best selling scent in the Signature Bio Laundry Detergent, Bio Enzyme Laundry Booster, and Aestival Bio Enzyme Dishwasher Detergent in Yuzu, Geranium, Lemon Balm. The scents are all great, not too strong. A little goes a long way! The laundry booster WORKS. Love that it’s safe for colors and whites. I stopped using bleach but was the only thing that worked to get my whites white, see video for impressive clean.

As part of my efforts to be more environmentally friendly, I am making an effort to switch up my household cleaning products to brands that are non toxic. This of course includes my laundry detergent. Before this I had been using laundry pods as they are super convenient to use, but I had heard mixed things about the lining of the pods and the micro plastics it releases. So I am back to liquid detergent. Before Dirty Labs there was another brand I had been using that could be found a refill shops. But let’s just say that I didn’t really feel like this detergent was doing its job. Even by increasing the amount of detergent it did not get the same fresh feeling that I would get from the traditional big brand kind. I then decide to try Dirty Labs. I got the green bottle which has the scent of magnolia, bergamot, and cedar. The bottle came with a small silicone loading cup, which I love as it is easy to wash and can be used forever. The bottle itself is made of aluminum which means it is recyclable. So far I have only used the smallest amount recommended but I could immediately tell there was a huge difference! My laundry smelled so nice and the scent doesn’t immediately disappear either. I air dry my clothes currently and with this detergent they are left feeling super soft. I really wish this brand was in refill stores near me. The bottle is recyclable, but I would prefer to be able to refill it in person. Besides that I have no complaints! It is definitely on the higher end of detergent but that’s par for the course with non toxic brands. Eventually I do want to try out other things they’ve made, as it’s clear they make good quality products.

Thrilled about this laundry product: the detergent itself works very, very well. Adding the laundry booster whitened sheets (at standard temperatures), and towels looked as if they’d been through a ‘stripping’. I love the scent of the detergent but it doesn’t survive the addition of the booster. The fragrance to add to dryer balls is a little too expensive. Erlenmyer flask nice but not strictly necessary. Silicone measuring beaker very useful, but perhaps it could be offered for free with a certain quantity of an order?

Obsessed! The fragrance used for these laundry detergents are phenomenal. The fact that you don’t have to use much plus the eco friendly packaging makes it worth the price. I recently started using the dishwashing powder also and WOW, love it! The smell is glorious and it works well too! I can’t wait to go on this journey with Dirty Labs.

This stuff works SO well on your stinkiest, sweatiest, workout gear. I washed our mountain biking shammies with this set and it took the funk out that I've struggled with getting rid of for years. I love how it smells and how concentrated it is. A little goes a long way. Measuring cup to show you really how much you need. No mess involved that you typically get with other liquid detergents.
