Many people believe that the more washing powder they use when washing their clothes, the cleaner their clothes will be.
This is a misconception. We tell you how much washing powder you actually need to add.
If your clothes feel soapy, sticky or stiff after washing, you may have used too much detergent.
Experts say that only two tablespoons of powder are needed for one load of the washing machine.
However, it is important to consider the quality of the water. If it is soft, the amount of powder can be reduced slightly, if hard, it can be increased to three or four tablespoons.
For hand washing one item of clothing, one tablespoon of powder is enough.
