"Instead of making your clothes softer, Rebecca Jakeman, a senior researcher and write at Which? has warned that this liquid can actually cause skin irritation. 'I'd never use fabric softener,' Ms Jakeman explained. 'It leaves a residue on fabrics that builds up over time. 'Not only does this make it harder for detergent to penetrate and clean your clothes, it will also reduce the absorption of towels. 'Fabric softener can also irritate sensitive skin.'"
"Some detergents can also irritate the skin, the expert added. 'Using too much detergent could also be a problem for you if your skin is sensitive to any of the chemicals used in the detergent,' she said. So, how much detergent should you use? Roughly speaking, you'll need just one tablespoon for small loads, or two tablespoons for larger loads, according to Ms Jakeman."
Fabric softener leaves a residue on fabrics that builds up over time. Residue makes it harder for detergent to penetrate and clean clothes and reduces the absorption of towels. Fabric softener can also irritate sensitive skin. Using too much detergent leaves detergent residues that can remain after the rinse cycle, and can show as flecks or smears on dark garments. Excess detergent can also irritate skin if sensitivity to detergent chemicals exists. Rough guidelines are one tablespoon for small loads and two tablespoons for larger loads. Washing machine manuals provide program-by-program detergent guidance.
