Stain-free clothing that is truly clean! Our powerful Stain Remover Spray is powered with active enzymes that break down and lift away stubborn stains. Unscented and gentle for sensitive skin, a safer choice for everyone in your family.

Oxygen Whitener

Our Oxygen Whitener is a whitening and brightening powerhouse that uses only 4 simple ingredients but delivers like conventional whiteners. This chlorine-free and color-safe bleach alternative will quickly become a favorite laundry room staple.

Wool Dryer Balls

Replace the need for toxic fabric softeners with Molly’s Suds hand-felted 100% Wool Dryer Balls, which last up to 1,000 loads, or three years, in the dryer. Best of all, they reduce drying time by 15-30%. You’ll never need to reach for chemical-filled dryer sheets again.

PRO TIP: Use Oxygen Whitener to lift stains from ceramic, porcelain, and natural stone surfaces too!

After our founder, Monica Leonard, experienced the tragic loss of her daughter, Molly, she discovered the toxic chemicals included in common household cleaning products and knew she needed to remove them from her home and replace them with safer, simpler cleaning alternatives.

The one place she couldn’t find a satisfactory option? The laundry room! Shockingly, popular laundry detergents such as Dreft, which are marketed as safe for babies, receive "F" ratings from the Environmental Working Group (EWG). These detergents (Dreft) contain Sodium Borate, which the EWG's calls a "High Concern" as numerous studies show it "may damage fertility", "may damage the unborn child", and has "clear evidence of endocrine disruption".

Monica believed we all deserve better, and we are proud to offer our all-new Baby Liquid Laundry Detergent as a cleaner, gentler option for mothers and babies everywhere. With Molly's Suds, you can (finally) clean powerfully and live fearlessly.

How to Use

For an easy clean without mess or waste:

Step 1. Add clothes to the washer & remove laundry detergent sheets according to the load size. Use ½ sheet for regular loads, 1 sheet for large loads, and 2 sheets for extra large or heavily-soiled loads.

Step 2. For top load washers, place sheet inside washer drum on top of clothes. For front load washers, place sheet in detergent dispenser (fold it or squish it in the drawer so it may close!).

Step 3. Run your preferred wash cycle. It’s that easy!

PRO TIP: If traveling, pack a few sheets with you in your bag or suitcase (we like to put them in our makeup bag, inside of a Ziploc). You never know when they may come in handy on the road - whether for work or play!

When we first noticed laundry detergent sheets entering the market around 2020, we fell in love with the concept; who wouldn’t love a product that helps conserve water, reduces plastic waste, and lowers our carbon footprint?

As we looked more closely, however, we noticed two main problems. First: much like other more conventional forms of laundry detergent, these laundry detergent sheets were filled with harmful chemicals, particularly synthetic nonylphenol ethoxylates which are well known to produce 1,4 dioxane as a byproduct. Second: while customers too loved the concept, their feedback was … underwhelming. Most of the products barely outperformed water in removing stains, if at all!

So at Molly’s Suds, we set out to solve these problems and create a cleaner, safer laundry detergent sheet that is not only gentle on sensitive skin, but also really works! Made without any ethoxylated ingredients, optical brighteners, or synthetic dyes & fragrances, and formulated with not one, but TWO stain-fighting enzymes, Molly’s Suds Laundry Detergent Sheets are the obvious choice to clean without compromise.

This gentle swimsuit cleaner reaches deep into the fibers of your favorite suit to cleanse and revive — keeping your suit (and you) looking fabulous all season long.

• Gently lifts sunscreen, oil, chlorine, sweat, and sand
• Eliminates tough odors from chlorine and seawater water
• Preserves elasticity, shape, and color
• Made with simple yet effective active cleaning ingredients
• Gentle for all ages, including those with sensitive skin

How to Use

For revitalized swimwear:

Step 1. Fill a sink or plastic tub with cool water. Add one good squirt or 1 TBSP of swimsuit cleaner per bathing suit you’ll be washing.

Step 2. Add your swimwear and swish them in the water. This will encourage the cleaner to reach deep into the fibers to pull out chlorine, oils, and grit.

Step 3. Allow it to soak for 30 minutes.

Step 4. Rinse in cool water until the water runs clear.

Step 5. Air dry on a clean, flat surface until completely dry. Aside from that smile and the tan lines, it’ll be like beach day never happened.

PRO TIP: Never wring out a swimsuit. This warps the padding and damages the elasticity. Instead, lay the suit flat on a thick towel, roll it up like a sausage and squeeze out the excess water.

Whether we’re basking on the beach, or training for a triathlon at a local pool, between the swimming, sunscreen, and sweat, our swimwear really takes a beating. After all the time and energy you’ve spent finding your perfect swimsuit, you should know how to follow the right laundering rules that will keep it looking great season to season.

Here are our guidelines for the best swimwear care!

1. As soon as you can, rinse your swimming suit in cool water. This will remove the bulk of the damaging particles until you’ve got the time to wash it properly. Chlorine, salt, sand, dirt, suntan lotion, and sunscreen are all very hard on your swimsuit and the longer they are allowed to stay in the fabric, the more damage they’ll do.
2. Never put a dirty suit in a plastic bag. This is a breeding ground for odor-causing bacteria and will make your swimsuit break down more quickly.
3. Wash your swimming suit every time you wear it.
4. Always use a gentle swimsuit cleaner. Regular detergents are often too harsh for delicate fabrics.
5. Never put a swimming suit in the washing machine or dryer. Always hand wash and air dry your swimming suits.
6. Treat stains as quickly as possible with Stain Remover Spray.
7. Avoid wearing the same swimming suit more than once in 24 hours. This gives the fabric time to return to its normal shape and reduces the chances of warping and stretching.
8. Avoid sitting on concrete or pavement. The rough surface will snag your suit.

Keep your favorite delicates in perfect form — and spotlessly clean! Our Delicate Wash is designed to gently launder dress shirts, lingerie, and fine knit garments

• Suitable for use on silk, spandex, rayon, wool, cashmere, merino, mohair, and other delicate fabrics
• Preserves softness, warmth, and shape of sweaters and delicate blouses
• Made from simple yet effective ingredients
• Available in Lavender and Unscented

How to Use

Gently clean and revitalize your delicates every time:

Step 1. Add cool water and one squirt or 1 TBSP of Delicate Wash Detergent to your sink or washtub.

Step 2. Swish the water and add your delicates. Gently squeeze them to work the Delicate Wash Detergent deeply into the material.

Step 3. Rinse the garments with cool water until the water runs clear.

Step 4. Place your delicate items on a clean towel, and roll it up like a sausage, squeezing tightly (don’t wring or twist) to remove excess water. This is especially important for heavy delicates, such as sweaters and wool items.

Step 5. Allow your delicates to air dry on a drying rack, making sure to position each item into its natural shape.

PRO TIP: To remove stains, apply a small amount of Delicate Wash Detergent directly over the stain. Use your Laundry Brush to work the detergent deep into the fabric. Rinse and repeat if necessary, then launder as usual.

What delicates are best washed with our Delicate Wash Detergent? All of them! This wash is perfect for washing the trickiest garments, from vintage lace to mohair sweaters.

Here are our tips on how to wash the most common delicates:

Fine Knit Natural Fibers: Wool, cashmere, and mohair require extra care to keep them luxurious and gorgeous. Always hand wash using a delicate detergent like this one and never use the dryer. Keep sweaters looking brand new with our Sweater Pumice or Cashmere Comb. These tools will remove pilling and pet hair.

Bras and Lingerie: We recommend hand washing bras and lingerie whenever possible — even your sports bras! But, if you do choose to launder in the washing machine, always use a Mesh Laundry Bag to protect these delicate garments. Launder on cool, using Delicate Wash Detergent, and allow to air dry. Never place lingerie in a dryer!

Lace Items: Lace items should be hand-washed when possible using a delicate detergent. To renew white lace, add one scoop of Oxygen Whitener to a tub or sink filled with warm water and allow the item to soak for an hour or two. Rinse until the water runs clear and air dry. Always avoid putting lace items in the dryer as they may easily get snagged.

Synthetics (Spandex & Rayon): Fill a tub or bowl with cool water and add a small squirt of Delicate Wash. Swish your items through the water and allow them to soak for a little while before rinsing clean. Air dry in a location where they won’t run any risk of being snagged.

Vintage Garments: Always hand wash using a gentle detergent like our Delicate Wash Detergent. These fabrics are aged and sensitive! Avoid the dryer and instead choose a drying rack.

This mighty 2-in-1 formula combines Molly's Suds Original Laundry Powder with our Oxygen Brightener Bleach Alternative to deep clean, whiten, brighten, and remove tough stains all in a single scoop.

• Just one scoop (1 TBSP) per load

How to Use

For a great wash every time:

Step 1. Add the powder directly to your washing machine before adding laundry, for both standard and HE washing machines.

Step 2. Choose your preferred wash cycle. Warm or hot water works best to activate the Oxygen Boost's full power. If your clothing requires cold water, pre-dissolve powder in hot water before adding to your machine's dispenser cup.

Step 3. Follow up the wash cycle in the dryer with our Wool Dryer Balls.

PRO TIP: Pre-treat stubborn stains with our Stain Remover Spray. If your home has hard water, add 1/3 cup of white vinegar to the wash to balance the pH level. Vinegar is a natural fabric softener!

This is the product that started it all! Molly’s Suds Original Laundry Detergent Powder was the first laundry powder we created and is our flagship product. As Monica Leonard (owner, founder) began discovering the toxic chemicals included in common household cleaning products, she knew she needed to remove them from her home and replace them with safer, simpler cleaning products.

The one place she couldn’t find a satisfactory option? The laundry room! All of the 'natural' products she tried didn’t clean well or left a sticky residue. Many of them even included questionable ingredients. A safe and effective laundry detergent powder was nowhere to be found — so, she decided to partner with a green chemist to create her own!

A short time later, our Original Laundry Powder hit the shelves of our newly launched brand, Molly’s Suds. It’s a powerful and gentle detergent powder that remains one of our best sellers to this day.

Learn More About Oxygen Whitener Chlorine-Free Bleach Alternative

This powerful bleach alternative doesn’t only whiten and brighten in the laundry room — it has stain-lifting properties all over your home! Here are a couple of our favorite additional uses for Oxygen Whitener.

Extra carpet cleaning power! Add a scoop of Oxygen Whitener to the water compartment of your carpet cleaner for extra brightening power. (Do NOT do this on wool carpeting or silk rugs.)

Whiten your toilet bowl! Sprinkle Oxygen Whitener into the toilet bowl and allow to sit, dampened, in the bowl for several minutes. Now, scrub away those stubborn stains!

Whiten your porcelain sinks and tubs! Sprinkle some Oxygen Whitener into your sink or tub and scrub with a soft-bristled brush. Rinse away the remainder to reveal newly whitened surfaces.

Laundry Booster! Add this Oxygen Whitener to your normal wash to give some extra boosting and brightening power. This is especially helpful for those with hard water, as all the minerals in the water tend to block the cleaning power of detergents and laundry powders.

All Sport Activewear Detergent is the ultimate laundry solution for eliminating tough odors and stubborn stains from sports apparel, athleisurewear, and delicates. Best of all, it’s made with simple ingredients that are safer (and just as effective) for everyone in the family!

How to Use

For handwashing your athletic wear:

Step 2. Pretreat any stains using a small amount of All Sport Activewear Detergent. Work the detergent into the stain with your Laundry Stain Brush, then add the garment to the washer. You can use our Stain Remover Spray for this step too!

Step 3. Launder according to garment care labels. When in doubt, remember that most athletic clothing is best laundered in cool water and dried on the lowest heat setting or air-dried.

Or use the gentle cycle in your machine:

Step 1. Add 2-4 capfuls of All Sport Activewear Detergent to the drum of your washer or detergent drawer. For small loads use 2 capfuls; for larger loads use up to 4 capfuls.

Step 2. Pretreat any stains using a small amount of All Sport Activewear Detergent. Work the detergent into the stain with your Laundry Stain Brush, then add the garment to the washer. You can use our Stain Remover Spray for this step too!

Step 3. Launder according to garment care labels. When in doubt, remember that most athletic clothing is best laundered in cool water and dried on the lowest heat setting or air-dried.

PRO TIP: Have a houseful of sweaty, smelly teenage boys, or a military uniform to launder? You can use All Sport Wash as a general clothing detergent to help get rid of odors in jeans, socks, underwear, uniforms, and t-shirts. Or, you can use All Sport Wash as a laundry booster with our laundry powders — just 1 cap will do the trick!

Feeling adrift when it comes to the best way to care for your yoga pants and new gym shorts? It’s easy to quickly and irreparably ruin high-performance fabrics if you don’t follow the right rules for garment care. Here’s what our pros recommend:

1. Athletic wear should always be washed as soon as possible to prevent odor-causing bacteria from multiplying.
2. Never use chemical-filled fabric softeners or dryer sheets on sports apparel! These products damage the elasticity, wicking attributes, and breathability of activewear.
3. Avoid washing athletic clothing and delicates in hot water. Heat can damage the elasticity and shape of these garments. This Active Wear Detergent will still work its odor-cutting magic in cool or warm water!
4. Repeat as needed! If stubborn stains or odors are not eliminated after the first wash, wash and repeat before drying. Once you dry a garment stains and odors can be harder to combat!
5. Always air dry athleisurewear or use the coolest setting in the dryer. Wool Dryer Balls are recommended to speed up drying time.
6. Say goodbye to smelly shoes! Put your tennis shoes or sneakers into a mesh laundry bag and toss them in the washer with a generous splash of All Sport Wash. Allow your shoes to soak in cool water for 20-30 minutes, then rinse.

To keep your yoga mat and athletic equipment clean, mix one-part All Sport Wash - Active Wear Detergent to three parts water in a glass spray bottle. Spritz over yoga mats, non-washable athletic gear, and inside gym bags. Wipe down with a dry, organic cloth for a quick, efficient clean that gets rid of lingering odors.

Learn More Fun Tips About Our Activewear Laundry Detergent

Stinky activewear? Synthetic fibers are prone to holding on to those odor-causing bacteria (mostly from your sweat) and leaving a lingering stink after it’s been washed. Molly’s Suds Activewear Laundry Detergent was specially formulated to remove that stink using a special blend of active enzymes.

Enzymes move at lightning-fast speed to break down the bonds that hold dirt and stains in the fabric of your laundry. Once the enzymes have done their work, our plant-powered surfactants bind to the particles and are rinsed away.

Really stubborn odors and stains? Soak your activewear in a tub or wash basin with 1 scoop of Activewear Laundry Detergent and hot water for 30-60 minutes. Then wash as usual. This will remove years of buildup from your yoga pants, sports bras, golf shirts, and uniforms.

Yellowing undershirts and pit stains? Make a paste using our Oxygen Whitener and hot water and rub into the stains using our Laundry Stain Brush. Let sit for 30-60 minutes (or overnight) and then wash as usual.

How to Use

For a safer, simpler wash:

Learn More Learn More About Original Laundry Detergent Powder

This is the product that started it all! Molly’s Suds Original (Peppermint) Laundry Detergent Powder was the first laundry powder we created and is our flagship product. As Monica Leonard (our founder) began discovering the toxic chemicals included in common household cleaning products, she knew she needed to remove them from her home and replace them with safer, simple ingredients that really worked.

The one place she couldn’t find a satisfactory option? The laundry room! All of the 'natural' products she tried didn’t clean well or left a sticky residue. Many of them even included questionable ingredients. A clean, effective laundry detergent powder was nowhere to be found — so, she decided to partner with a green chemist to create her own!

A short time later, our Original Laundry Powder hit the shelves of our newly launched brand, Molly’s Suds. It’s a powerful and gentle detergent powder that remains one of our best sellers to this day.

How to Use

For a great wash every time:

Step 1. Choose cool, warm, or hot water. If your clothing requires cold water, opt for our All Sport Wash - Active Wear Detergent instead.

Step 2. Add a full scoop of Super Powder directly to the drum of your washing machine. For heavily soiled or extra-large loads, add one extra scoop of powder.

Step 3. Follow up the wash cycle in the dryer with our Wool Dryer Balls to speed up drying time!

PRO TIP: Even the best detergents need a little help sometimes. Rinse the stain with cool water if possible and apply Stain Spray generously over the stain until saturated. Allow the spray to sit for 10-15 minutes before rinsing with cool water. Work it into the stain with our Laundry Brush before tossing it into the washing machine.

What makes this laundry detergent different from our other laundry powders? Its unique blend of enzymes; protease, mannanase, amylase and cellulase.

Enzymes move at lightning-fast speed to break down the bonds that hold dirt and stains in the fabric of your laundry. Once the enzymes have done their work, our plant-powered surfactants bind to the particles and are rinsed away.

The result? Laundry that looks (and smells!) as good as new. Light laundry is whitened, colors are brightened, and even pilling is reduced. It’s like we said — our Super Powder is super-powered.

Our newly-launched Liquid Laundry Detergent is a powerful 2x concentrated formula designed to tackle your everyday laundry needs WITHOUT the harsh chemicals typically found in conventional brands.

• Made with simple yet effective active cleaning ingredients
• 2x concentrated formula deep cleans 100 loads of laundry
• Gentle for sensitive skin
• Free from harsh chemicals such as SLS/SLES, optical brighteners & synthetic dyes/fragrances
• Ultra-clean surfactants & stain-fighting enzymes deeply penetrate fibers to remove soil, dirt, oil, and stains
• Can be used in standard, commercial, and High-Efficiency (HE) washers
• Septic safe & works well in hard water to break through mineral build-up

This is the laundry detergent to reach for whether you’re tackling dirty kids clothes, a huge load of towels, or soaking delicates - it can handle anything you throw its way!

How to Use

For a safer, more powerful clean:

Step 1. Fill dosing cap 1⁄2 way to the first line for small loads, or all the way to the first line for regular or heavily-soiled loads.

Step 3. Follow up the wash cycle in the dryer with our Plant-Based Fabric Softener Dryer Sheets or our Wool Dryer Balls!

PRO TIP: If your home has hard water, add 1/3 cup of distilled white vinegar to balance the pH level. Vinegar is a natural fabric softener! Use Oxygen Whitener as a laundry booster for extra dirty or stained loads — it’s a chlorine-free and color-safe bleach alternative.
