"I had never heard of Arau. I used it on my neice's clothes and it works great. The lavender scent is pleasant and subtle. I even used it on my dog's jacket and shirts because of it's gentle ingredients! I like it and will continue using it! :)"
"This detergent works well and is gentle on the skin. I bought the lavender one, and it smelled nice, not too overpowering. I have sensitive skin, and this detergent works well for people like me as well as babies. It's just too expensive for the quantity."
"I really liked this product and it really feels a need that I think has been there for a while. It’s a gentle all natural baby detergent. My neighbor just had a baby and I asked her if I could wash some of her baby clothes. I loved the smell and how effective it was getting rid of stains."
"A happy baby is a Happy house. Multiple different detergents used, but this is by far the best. Our child hasn’t had any irritation or rashes. We can rest well knowing our baby is comfortable in their clothes. Will be our go to from now on!!"
"I love that this soap is eco-friendly, plant-based and free from synthetic additives. It is gentle for sensitive skin like babies but also doesn’t irritate my husband’s psoriasis condition. It left the laundry soft and with a light lavender scent we love! I will look for their other products to try out."
"My store only carried the laundry detergent so that was my only option to try. First, I really love that the cap is literally printed in dark ink how much/far to fill it. I think we all can agree that most caps are so big and yet only need a little pinch- therefore I'm sure we all use way too much. Second, this smells nice and fresh when you take the lid off. Kinda wish the scent stayed on the clothes after using it but it left no smell at all, but thats no big deal. All in all this is a good product but the price is pretty hefty"
"I found this laundry detergent to be extremely watery and need a lot to get even a small load of clothes clean. Since the bottle is so small, the price per load is astronimical. There are much better and more economical alternatives."
"Arau Baby Gentle Baby Essentials. I chose the lavender soap detergent to try this time. It don’t have strong smell at all! I thought the lavender scent will smells similar like other lavender scent products, but it doesn’t. You barely smell lavender in it. I like it."
"I was surprised how small the bottle of detergent is. I can't imagine how many bottles I would need to purchase for a months worth of laundry. It would get pretty expensive considering the price of each bottle. I'm not crazy about the lavender scent. It reminds me of hippy patchouli."
"Its lavender fragrance is really soothing, and it leaves a very slight (if any) residue on the washed items. Its cleaning power seems to be average, and some tough stains on my socks weren't removed or lightened much. It claims its ingredients are safe for babies."
