Stains are an unfortunate part of life. At one point or another, you may have had to deal with really difficult stains like those from red wine, blood, grease, armpit stains, and so on. Some stains are so stubborn that they can live through multiple wash cycles; they may fade over time, yet you can usually tell that they are never really gone. 

Using common methods of pre-treating your clothes can help with removing stains but such methods take time and include a number of steps including applying liquid detergent, sponging with white vinegar, rinsing, then applying liquid detergent again. If you’re tired of going through these motions and would just like one solution to effectively get rid of stains, then having a handystain remover stick is a good alternative. 

Choosing the best stain remover product can be tricky. Some stain removers on the market may get the job done but can potentially damage some types of clothes and/or pollute the environment. So, to help you make the best choice, we’ve put together this guide that will tell you all you need to know about stain remover sticks, how they work, and what dangerous chemical ingredients to avoid. 

Let’s begin!

4 Reasons to Avoid Store-Bought Detergents 

All-Natural Stain Remover Bars are mindfully formulated to leave out any dangerous chemicals that many mainstream stain remover products on the market have. Some of these products are laden with chemicals that can destroy certain fabric types and even cause harm to a person’s health. Additionally, these harmful chemicals can negatively affect individuals with sensitive skin or sensitive parts of the body. 

Here are some of theharmful chemicals that need to be avoided:

1. Bleach

Sometimes it’s hard to figure out if bleach is harsher on stains or on the clothes themselves. One misuse of bleach can lead to instantly faded clothes; even the correct use of bleach can contribute to the deterioration of the fabric’s fibres and colour. Bleach is also toxic to all forms of life and to the environment in general. It can cause adverse effects on the skin, eyes, and lungs. 

1. Sodium Laureth Sulphate

Sodium Laureth Sulfate (SLS), is commonly used as a foaming agent in shampoos and stain removers. SLS is known to be a skin irritant that can, when in contact with skin, remove its protective oils and moisture. The sad part is, SLS isn’t even necessary to remove stains. Typically, it merely gives an added illusion that the clothing is being cleaned thoroughly.

1. Synthetic Fragrances

Many stain remover products try to smell like they are natural. However, synthetic fragrances can contain numerous harmful chemicals that should be avoided - especially by people who are pregnant or those with sensitive skin. 

1. Phosphates

The phosphates from laundry water run-off can make their way to various bodies of water, chemically encouraging the overgrowth of algae and harming all other aquatic life. It’s no wonder thatItaly has banned phosphates since the 1980s and other countries are following suit. But while this ban is still underway for many parts of the world, you can do your part to save the environment by choosing only phosphate-free laundry products.

1. Lye

Lye, also known as sodium hydroxide, is yet another safe and effective ingredient in ourAll-Natural Stain Remover Bars. Lye helps to break up all kinds of sticky stains, assisting in the action of Borax.
