When it suddenly becomes clear that the washing powder has run out, and the washing cannot be delayed, you can do without specialized household chemicals.

Any housewife can get out of this mess if she has these products in her home, and they are sure to be found. Here's how to wash your clothes.

So, if you run out of laundry detergent, you can head to the kitchen.

Dishwashing detergent

This is the most affordable substitute for washing powder, gel and other capsules. Surely even those who have been using a dishwasher for a long time have a bottle of liquid.

You can wash out greasy and other difficult stains, but there is one caveat. The dishwashing detergent should be as natural as possible. The less aggressive chemicals it contains, the less risk there is that things will be damaged after washing.

Soap and soda

If you don’t want to risk your expensive items, prepare your own laundry detergent using soap and baking soda.

Both bar soap or baby soap and their liquid analogues will do. Bar soap is usually grated and mixed with soda in a 1:2 ratio.

This composition will not only remove difficult stains, but also disinfect the fabric. The handmade product is poured not into the tray, but into the drum of the washing machine.
