I so enjoyed meeting Gwen and Lindsey of The Laundress and hearing about their approach (the rules didn’t apply) to design and marketing-I can relate! So, I wanted to get to know more about the lovely ladies behind this brilliant brand. I’m also sharing my favorite products from their line.

Here are our must try products from The Laundress line:
There is no doubt that how you wash your jeans affects their longevity and how they wear, and they can also be an investment, so this denim wash is all you will need to preserve them.
Our PR girl, Jackie, swears by this after spilling red wine all over a pair of white pants and after treating them with this Bleach Alternative they look brand new.
The Stain Brush and Stain Solution are all you will need for treating all types of stains- for me having 3 children being able to treat stains on their clothing along with mine is so important.
You cannot go wrong with any of the home cleaning products- again having children it’s important to me to use safe products (these are gentle on all types of surfaces) but effective enough that when one person gets a sore throat the rest of us don’t!
