Guide Review - Vaska Oxygen Bleach Laundry Review

Vaska Oxygen Bleach is one of the products in the Vaska advanced botanical solutions for laundry cleaning. Vaska a Berkeley, CA-based company uses herbs and non-toxic ingredients in their line which includes herbatergent, herbsoft, spotoff and oxygenbleach.

I gave oxygenbleach a try and found it to work very well at removing stains and brightening fabrics and is safe on any colored fabric. On white garments, yellowing and dinginess disappeared. It can be used safely in regular or high-efficiency washers or as a sink soaking agent. It is 100% gray water and septic tank safe. The product has also received the U.S. EPA Design for the Environment seal.

Vaska oxygenbleach ingredients are: hydrogen peroxide, plant based surfactants and filtered water. To compare, a leading oxygen-based bleach lists its ingredients as: water, hydrogen peroxide, amine oxide, alkylbenzen sulfonate, dye, florescent whitening agent, fragrance and sodium hydroxide. Vaska's product is clearly better for those with allergies or sensitive skin.
