Doing laundry isn’t my favorite chore but I love that it gives me some quiet time to think.
So here I am, doing a few loads of laundry using all free clear detergent and I giggled to myself thinking about how sensitive my family is. When I say sensitive I really, really mean it. We are emotional at weddings and other special events and we cry watching sad scenes in movies. Of course my hubby won’t admit that he cries, he always blames it on allergies!
Speaking of allergies, that’s another way we are a sensitive family.
We all have allergies, I have Rosacea and the normal little things that we experience all the time, like a windy day, actually hurt my face. My 12 year old, Noah is also very sensitive. Any little thing can irritate his skin. I can’t tell you how many times he has had an allergic reaction to dyes in clothing, soaps, detergents and even fabric softener. I am very careful with anything that he comes into contact with to try to avoid any other reactions. all free clear has made life with allergies, Rosacea and sensitive skin a whole lot easier. It’s a no brainer!
Our Morning Routine
In the mornings we like to snuggle in bed as a family for a little while before getting up and starting the rush of the day. Now, because of everyone’s sensitive skin we always use a very mild detergent to wash all of our clothes, towels and bedding. One day about a year ago, either I found a new scent that I really liked or something new was on sale. I can’t remember and at the time, our morning snuggles didn’t even cross my mind.
The morning after using the new detergent, the kids climbed into bed with us. They tickled my husband to wake him up and everything seemed normal. They usually do something funny to wake dad up, like tackling him or piling on top of him. However, a few moments later I noticed that Noah was beginning to break out into hives. Within minutes he was itchy and uncomfortable. He had hives and a rash on every part of exposed skin including his face!
The guilt sets in…
It didn’t take me long to realize that it had to be the new detergent that I used the day before. After giving Noah some of his allergy medicine, he was fine a little while later. I was a guilty mess, I felt horrible because the change I made in the detergent caused my boy to have an allergic reaction. I knew at that moment, I couldn’t let it ever happen again.
That’s when all free clear came into our lives.
I went online and did some research and was surprised by just how many different ingredients most laundry detergents contain. I learned that all free clear has only 9 ingredients. That’s less than half the ingredients of Tide Free & Gentle. I found out that all free clear is 100% hypoallergenic. I decided on the spot that I would use all free clear on all of our laundry. Since that day we haven’t had any allergy issues coming from our morning snuggles. We are #FreeToBe a snuggly family thanks to all free clear!

Today’s post was sponsored by all free clear, but my love for the brand is all my own!
As with any household detergent, keep out of reach of children.
My family is sensitive too. I spend a lot of time avoiding dyes/perfumes – all is perfect!
I’m so glad you found a detergent that would work for your family. We used to use all and really liked it. And we love Oxi, so great products to review. Thanks for the coupon.
This sounds like a great product. I have never used this brand before, but I’d like to try as I have very sensitive skin.
I have been using All free & clear for years. My husband has sensitive skin and this is the only brand that is ok for his skin.
When my Daughter was younger, we had to use a sensitive detergent on her. There weren’t many back then that were free and clear. Things are changing for the better.
I tried all before and thought it was okay. It’s a gppd alternative when my favorite brand is not available.
I have extremely sensitive skin and friends have also suggested these products! 100% free of dyes and perfumes is really a bonus on my gentle skin!
Allergies are annoying and I’m glad you have found product that product that works for your family. Luckily our family isn’t sensitive, but I still prefer using milder products.
Thanks for the coupon link. All is my go-to detergent. It always does a nice job at cleaning my laundry.
oh man, My family suffers from horrible allergies too! This sounds like a great product! I am going to pick some up at the store today!
I have used the “free and clear” detergents now for a couple of years to avoid any allergy issues with my family. I have not tried the All brand but I think I will pick some up on my trip to the store this week and use the coupon and give it a try.
I am the worst label reader but had no idea that All Free Clear had less ingredients that other detergents.
I absolutely love the All HE for my new washer, it’s my favorite now! Thank you for sharing this great product with us! 🙂
I have a horrible skin sensitivity to laundry detergent! All Free is what I use as well to help my skin not freak out.
It’s a awesome product, because all of us are sensitive skin, when we buy powder detergent, we look up to the label first,, but this product 100% free from dyes and perfume, its a big surprise to my skin. I do a lot things, especially in house chore.
I try to use the most natural products as possible…I’m definitely going to try this one! Thanks for the review!
I have always had great experiences with All free clear products. I will have to try out the stainlifters with oxi next time because my husband has work clothes that are hard to get the stains out of.
Our family deals with sensitivity issues too, this is one I have never tried. So glad you found something that worked!!
We used All detergent when the babies were small to avoid any allergic reactions too. Luckily, our kids didn’t inherit any allergies to fabrics. I would feel guilty too if my son broke out in hives from morning snuggles. Poor mama! (and kiddo!)
I’m glad All works for your family!
This would be prefect as I have Psoriasis and certain detergents can irritate me.
Doing laundry is not one of my favorite chores. I use this product because I am very chemical sensitive, It works well and doesn’t bother my skin at all.
Thanks for the post. i will try these out.
My skin is so sensitive that I can only use the Honest company detergents. I never knew All Detergent had a line for people with allergies. i definitely need to try this out.
I have not tried this yet but sounds like great product to try out.
I use All Free Clear but I didn’t know they made a super concentrated formula. I need to look for it.
I use this. I have sensitive skin and allergies. It works well.
I would love to try this detergent!! I have sensitive skin, its so bad that sometimes I just use Dreft(baby detergent)
We’ve been using All Free & Clear since our oldest was a baby. It has been great for our kids’ sensitive skin.
I like All detergent, but I haven’t yet tried this. I’ll be looking for it next time.
I love All detergent! It really gets the stains out of my clothes.
Since I’ve switched over to this, I find I’m sleeping better. Although I enjoy the scented brands I would wake up very congested. This is a great product.
IF people only knew the hidden dangerous of scented anything. We love and ONLY use All Free! The best product ever.
Thanks for the tips. Some of these products are new to me.
Thanks so much for the Fantastic Review on #Free To Be A Snuggly Family With All free and clear Laundry Detergent! WOW, you guys are a sensitive bunch! I’ve been really lucky that non of us are overly sensitive! I’ve been using my store brand’s Laundry Detergent which is also marked “free and clean”. I’ve never taken the time to read the ingredients though. However, none of us have had any reactions to it. Thanks so much for sharing your fantastic review, the pictures, and your personal and professional opinions on #Free To Be A Snuggly Family With All free and clear Laundry Detergent with all of us! I enjoyed reading your review! Thanks again, Michele 🙂
It’s terrible when children have allergies. At least changing the laundry soap helped.
Laundry has to be one of my favorite chores. It takes too long and you really can’t leave the clothes in the dryer without wrinkling.
this looks like something we would really enjoy
I’m really glad that companies are starting to make products for those of us with sensitive skin and allergies.
I like a product that’s gentle enough to use with a newborn. And, it’s affordable.
My skin is so sensitive. Once. after using a scented lotion, I started getting a strange rash that spread. I saw two specialist and finally had to have a biopsy done to figure out what the problem was.
I don’t know if it’s true but I read somewhere that all you really need is about a tablespoon of laundry soap to get the clothes clean.
Thanks for the reminder. I’m doing laundry right now and need to take it out of the dryer.
the ALL Clear is great but the ALL baby works well for us too because the fragrance is super light
I love that the bottles are so small! We use a sensetive soap too, I will have to check this one out.
I literally have over thirty bottles of laundry soap. So many, that I had to take them into the kitchen and rinse the dust off. I wish I knew back when I was buying them that it was as simple as finding one without all the perfumes and added chemicals.
I suspect as long as we have house hold chores that companies will come out with new and improved products.
I sometimes use all. It is a good laundry soap. Thanks for sharing.
If a person has allergies or not it makes sense to use a natural product. We’re surrounded on a regular basis with too many chemicals. They do build up in your body.
They have perfected the detergent. Now if they could only come up with a way that the laundry would clean itself.
haha! so true!!
I like the concentrated formulas. They use less packaging . There’s less waste all around.
This company makes good products and isn’t overpriced like some others.
I just noticed the seashells. Why do have them on the washing machine?
I’m so glad that companies are becoming more aware the the issues that matter. And, changing the formulations accordingly.
I have been using All free & clear for a couple of years. I have sensitive skin and this is the only brand that is ok for my skin.
All free clear is 100% hypoallergenic which is great to have for my family since this is a problem for us to I will have to try some out.
As someone who is sensitive or allergic to nearly everything, I am so glad they are now making so many other options.
I have been using several different brands so I am going to have to go and try this out.
Nobody, or most people, don’t like to do laundry. Using a gentle formula that you can feel good about makes it easier.
