I don’t think hardly anyone truly loves doing laundry, but it’s one of those things that come with life’s territory. Doing laundry is one of the most tedious chores, especially during the summer when my family and I are more active. I’m not only doing laundry more frequently. I’m also encountering the toughest stains from barbecue sauce and sunscreen to perspiration and grass. It may not be one of my favorite chores, but I’ve learned to do it well since the most surefire way to ensure that my wardrobe is looking its best is by treating it with TLC! Treating our clothing with the TLC that they deserve can also extend the longevity of your wardrobe.
My tried and true methods for having my wardrobe look its best are setting my washer on the cold setting, using the right amount of laundry detergent that’s high quality; avoiding the dryer much as possible, and hanging and folding clothes properly! Veering away from stain removers, fabric softeners, and laundry detergents that are laden with harsh chemicals also help. These chemicals are not only bad for our clothing, but they have an impact on our health since they come in contact with our skin. Additionally, they cause environmental issues with our waterways. It almost goes without saying that it’s important to take care of our environment, skin, and clothing – naturally as possible.
That’s why I’m happy that a conventional brand like Tide has come out with a laundry detergent that is gentle, yet effective. This is what many environmentally conscious moms are looking for in a laundry detergent! I recently bought the Tide purclean at my recent jaunt to Target. Surprisingly, it was the only Target shopping trip that I didn’t come out $100 less since I was looking forward to getting home quickly as possible and putting this laundry detergent to the test. I couldn’t be happier with my purchase since it’s a workhorse in the laundry room!
The Tide purclean gets rid of dirt and tough stains without lessening the quality of my clothing, ensures that my whites are pristine white while keeping other colors vibrant and beautiful; and the fragrance is true to its name (Honey Lavender). My clothes smell like I have frolicked in a lavender field each time they come out of the wash. It even helps the peskiest stains pull a Houdini!
Tide purclean is made with 100% renewable electricity and zero manufacturing waste to landfill site. It gets better – it’s free of chlorine, dyes, and phosphates. Instead, it’s made with water, coconut derived cleaning agent, plant derived surfactants, mineral based enzyme stabilizer, plant derived processing aid, pH adjuster, bio-derived enzymes, chelant, and fragrance. It’s actually the first bio-based detergent with the trusted cleaning power of Tide!
Purchase Tide purclean at Target and you’ll get $1 off by using the “neckhanger” coupon. Additionally, you’ll receive an extra 5% off if you use the Target Cartwheel mobile app. Both offers expire on July 30th.
Purclean sounds great! I’ve been trying to live a more green lifestyle, but frankly, most “green” cleaners haven’t done a great job for me. I can’t wait to try this one.

I should try this just because of the fact that my husband has a lot of issues with soap. I actually had no idea they made something like this! I’m going to have to check it out.
I love using Tide products and I would really like to try this! I really like using products that are green in my home!
Tide is always so reliable, and I am happy to hear these positive eco-friendly changes! I try to be mindful about the products and like to know the latest/greatest…. thanks for the update!

Tide is my go to brand and I will have to check out this PurClean. My daughters have some pretty sever allergies so this actually may prove better for them
We use Tide regularly but we haven’t seen this one yet. Hopefully, we see this one on our shelves soon.
I’m with Stacie, I have tried lots of green products in the past but haven’t had much luck. I hope it works as well for our families mess!

Just reading about this and what a great product it is. I love everything environmentally friendly and so annoying we do not have these in the stores here. Everyone should use this.

Definitely going to try this out! And beautiful pics!

Tide is one of the better brands and I love the way it smells.
I love using Tide products, but I haven’t tried this one yet. I’m not sure if this is already available in our stores here. I love that they are making eco friendly products now.
We switched away from Tide a few years ago for less expensive detergents that weren’t as heavily perfumed. I love the idea of a laundry detergent that isn’t full of dyes, though. So I will probably give this new Tide a try. The lavender scent is a huge bonus too!
I’ll have to try this out since it’s from Tide. I’m pretty skeptical of many of these “green” products. I’ll let you know how I like it.
I love this post! It’s so helpful. I have two bottle of Tide with Downy detergent in my laundry room right now. But now I’m interested in trying Tide Purclean. I hadn’t heard of it before. Thanks so much for introducing me to their newest product. It sounds great! 🙂
I’m so glad that tide has this all-natural detergent. It’s perfect for people with sensitive skin because it doesn’t contain any harmful chemicals! I think it’s a joy to have at home especially if you have kids that are very serious about making a mess!
Tide sounds great I like that it is economic friendly. I’ve yet to come across such an advanced cleaner.
PurClean sounds great! I have learned that the stuff in laundry detergent makes our clothes not last long.
This sounds like a great product. I need to check this detergent out. Sounds like it works well and I’m glad it’s at Target. I’ll have to grab some the next time I go there.
PurClean sounds amazing! I need to give this one a try as I already love the Tide brand to begin with.
I am seeing this everywhere! I have always used Tide and love their products!
I have been using Tide for years. It has always worked great to get my clothes clean. I will have to pick up Tide Purclean to try.
I love Tide but I haven’t seen this new formula yet! I need to check it out!!
They really need to come up with a different name – ‘neckhanger coupon’ sounds so violent! LOL 🙂
Thanks for the head up, we always use Tide! I will look for Tide PurClean on my next Target Run!

I love Tide and I am glad to see that they finally have an allergen friendly brand. I have often thought Tide was the best detergent brand, but my husband is allergic to it. With this new green brand, maybe we can use it again!

I can’t wait to check this out! I am constantly looking for greener alternatives, especially when it comes to the home.

I use to use Tide, but it would break out my daughter really bad. I will have to check out the new formula. I love the way Tide smells.
I am hoping the have another scent that doesn’t contain lavender. I don’t care for it. I do like that Tide is committed to taking care of the environment.
Tide purclean sounds like a great laundry detergent. I love that it can also be used as a stain remover.
I’ve been using Tide for at least 20 years. It’s the only brand that didn’t irritate my daughter’s skin. I love seeing that they are going green.
I loved the new options when brands started going clean and green. My husband’s skin loves it too.
Doing laundry relaxes me especially when folding them. I haven’t tried this kind of Tide but I will check it out for sure.
I try to use as many natural products as possible! I will have to try Tide Purclean out. It sounds like a fabulous option!
I would love to try this. I always use cold water, too… no matter what. I really do prefer Tide.
We always use clean and clear detergent because my son and I have very sensitive skin. I like that more brands are making products that are better for our skin and our world.
Tide has always been our trusted brand when it comes to laundy detergent. Never tried this yet though. Would certainly love to go green.
love that there’s an option like this out there! I’ll have to spread the word, thanks!

My youngest has sensitive skin. I really like the idea of thing being so clean. Great job on Tide for making it!
This is my preferred laundry detergent! It gets everything clean and doesn’t bother my sensitive skin.
I am always trying to find “greener” products. I may have to try this Tide out! I like that it still has a scent to it even though it’s a ‘pure’ products. Usually all the ‘pure’ products are unscented.
I’ve heard so many great things about the new Tide pure clean. Its awesome that Tide is going green!!
I’ve heard so much about the brand but never had the opportunity to try it out yet. Need to get a bottle the next time I go shopping.
Totally agree with you, laundry in the summer sucks!! The kids are more active and the stains are tougher. I love Tide and next time I’m picking up some, I will be sure to try the Tide purclean for those summer stains!
