ZOTELaundry Soap Bar - Pink 7oz

The soap is good and smells good, it washes clothes well.

I've been using this for about 3 years now, mostly for my beauty blender/sponges. It removes ALL products from any sponge I've used it on (which is a lot of diff brands as I'm not too picky) including cream blushes which are common to stain sponges. I guess it makes sense now that I think about it, as it's a laundry soap! 😉 I use it on some of my harder to clean makeup brushes, mainly foundation and powder ones that get caked up in product. I don't use it on my eyeshadow brushes since I never put those directly under any water which is needed to rinse the soap out. But it works great on the bigger ones. I prefer this 10x over dish soap. Dish soap does "work" per say, but nowhere near the way this does. I always find dish soap is really difficult to rinse out of the sponge and often doesn't remove the product fully.This is how I use it to clean sponges: First, I put the bar of soap under the faucet for a split second to get the surface damp. Then I get the sponge completely soaked in water and I DON'T wring it out (this is key IMO for easier/quicker rinsing). Then rub against the bar of soap on all the spots that have product and immediately wring, rinse and repeat until the water runs clear. Continue this process and your sponge will be spiffy and clean!The product is so gentle and very lightly scented you hardly even smell it on the sponge. Esp if you have aversion to stronger scents, as I definitely do. It's pleasant and super light. Also have never noticed any skin irritation from it at all. I break out somewhat easy so I know this definitely has never caused that in all this time!Using it the way I have, one bar of soap lasted me a year this last time since it was during the pandemic & I wasn't wearing makeup anywhere near as often as I used to. The bar before that one probably lasted me a good 6 months at LEAST. I still have a couple tiny pieces I'm using though. For the price you absolutely cannot go wrong!

Do you have a stain in that piece of clothing from like, 3 months ago? Did you add a spray and throw it in the washer already? Did you try baking soda to no avail? Well. This soap will fix it for you. What I do is I lay out the item in a single layer in the sink and I violently scrub the stain out. It is like magic. When I travel, I have a small piece of this soap cut up so I can use wherever I am at and just wash my shirt or whatever it is in the sink where the stain is. I have actually gifted this soap before. Twice. Yes, you need it.

I bought this to use to clean my make up brushes because of the ingredients. It can also be used on delicate natural bristle brushes. It also really cleans sponges very well and removes all the stains. I just cut off a sliver and lay it in the palm of my hand, dampen the brushes, rub them on the soap in the palm of my hand, rinse, blot dry and lay flat to dry overnight. Cleans them, fast removes almost all the stains on every brush and I am very pleased with this soap. It’s affordable and works. It will definitely be something I will keep re-purchasing. It also is very good at removing stains from clothing…just dampen the stain, rub the soap on it and then throw it in the washing machine with the rest of the laundry. I also like Masters brush cleaner and preserver, but honestly this works just as well on most brushes. Masters conditions natural bristles a bit better so I do use that on my $$$ Hakuhodo squirrel brushes and also my Kolinsky and sable brushes but I have used the Zote on them and it didn’t hurt them. Just not as conditioned as they are with the Masters. Synthetics use Zote. It works perfectly.

It helps get my makeup brushes clean but the smell I don’t prefer.

Use this to make laundry soap. Works great

My oldest daughter bought this from Target and it has been habitually used to remove stains in our household. The only thing that works... so I had to replenish the stash!
