A Downy Thank You

My love of Downy started early -- my grandmother always added it to her rinse cycle, and I continued the practice to this day.

It just ain't the same when you wrap a non-Downy towel around yourself after a hot shower.

And who needs a stinky sachet in their lingerie drawer when you can have April freshness.

But Downy met it's match when I started doing hot yoga this spring.

After profusely sweating (I don't glow or glisten) for an hour+ my yoga clothes were cursed with a unique, and what I feared might be permanent, stench. Nothing in my usual laundering arsenal was doing the trick.
Then a few weeks ago I received a surprise box from Downy.


In the midst of my BlogHer adventures, I had totally forgotten that, while strolling thru the booths at Getting Gorgeous, I had dropped a business card in the bowl at the Downy booth.

I had recently restocked my laundry supplies, so I didn't immediately crack open the new Downy bottles. Then one day, while making a post-yoga dash thru the grocery store I caught a whiff of myself -- gasp, gag! Then I remembered my recent package.

I raced home and gathered my entire yoga wardrobe -- it was time to do something about this stinky situation!

I am happy to report my hot yoga "perfume" was no match for Downy's Unstopable beads! Just one wash & the stink was gone!

Thanks to Unstopables, my yoga togs (and delicates) are no longer unmentionable!

Grandma would be pleased, and I'm sure my yoga compatriots will appreciate the freshness.

  1. Nice! I had been curious about the Unstopables. I was thinking about making a batch of the DIY laundry detergent that I've seen around Pinterest but I like things being April fresh. These might be the answer. Thanks!
