Lenor Unstoppables ...

[karmagetsyou]

I've bought some .... little "expensive" scented capsules ....

Am I a marketers dream or do they work ?

Will have fresh linen clothes for 12 weeks? (WTF!?)

I was very disappointed. Thought they were useless.

Might try them in an oil burner though.

I tried them when I washed the bedlinen and can really notice the smell when I get into bed, not so much on clothes though. Not sure why!

Obviously I change my sheets etc more than every 12 weeks so not sure the smell lasts that long!

Well I've given them a go & we will see ... Bloody expensive

pigletjohn always says that if you can't smell your fabric conditioner (assuming you want to), it is because your nose has adjusted to it. if you buy a different smelling one, you will smell it properly. So that's what I do now. A big fabric softener lasts me just obver two weeks. I alternate the ones I buy (I go between the yellow and blue Lenor).

These unstoppable are vile, they irritated DS2's skin, gunked DD2's washer up and badly affected my migraines. DS2's clothes get washed with Ecover (pink lid) and our clothes get washed with Fairy or comfort.
just my opinion on them though. I don't see the point in them myself anymore.

I like them,especially for sheets and towels. Also good on DC2's work clothes. The blue ones have a stronger scent than the pink or gold ones IMO.

I liked them when I got them on special offer. Not so much now!

I took one look at how many chemicals were in them and decided against it. Some of them are on the governments restricted chemicals list as they're known to be dangerous

Dangerous for aquatic life
put me right off them

I hate the very idea of them. I think you might be a marketers dream!

I hate them especially cos of the aquatic life problems and dh bought them when they were first out and didnt know they were bad for environment and they made me feel awful, couldn't breathe and felt physically ill.

It's got this stuff in it.

"Known human immune system toxicant or allergen"

www.ewg.org/skindeep/ingredient/700701/BENZYL_SALICYLATE/

That doesnt sound good rabbit! No wonder I felt allergic to it.

I like the blues ones the best, yes if you put enough in you can smell it on clothes and sheets

If we read anything that was in things we used/eat we'd be starving or never use anything ie soap toothpaste makeup etc
Unless you use totally organic everything

Mini05, personally I think it's one thing to use something that has a lot of chemicals in it but entirely another to use a product that has known toxicant's in it.

All fabric conditioners are packed full of chemicals. Most are fine to use but if you look at the labels you'd be amazed what's in the heavily scented stuff like Lenor Infusions and Comfort Exhilerations. I bought a bottle that had Formaldehyde in it, which is what undertakers use to preserve dead bodies for funerals to stop they decaying.

I think they're not much good either, only one of the scents worked on my washing and that was the gold/beige coloured one. They irritated dp and dd3 skin and they are expensive.

I'm not buying them again.

I don't think I'll buy another carton!

I thought they were a complete waste of money. They were expensive, didn't smell of anything and didn't make the towels any softer than normal.

I like the smell of the gold coloured cap ones but found it only lasted a day or too not 12 weeks! Tried it on bed linen, towels, clothes. Waste of money. I prefer my yellow lenor.

Rabbit no wonder they made me feel sick and irritated everyones skin, I dread to think what they do to the aquatic life....

I have had to stop using them as even if I only use a little the smell is overpowering!

Hello all,

I wanted to ask if anyone had any allergy problem with Lenor Unstopables. My sons partner started using them about three weeks ago and he suddenly broke out with this dreadful rash all over. On searching the internet I happened across this:

www.stain-removal-101.com/downy-unstopables-rash-hives.html

I’m assuming the same people make these or the formula is the same. Does anyone know?

The photos are of my son.

I notice Downy Unstopables spelt with one P and Lenor Unstoppables with two P’s. Is that just the American Way?

@VeePee56 Hi, I know this is an old thread but really hoping you can help. My daughter (20 months) has come up with a similar rash all over her body. I’ve recently started using unstoppables on bed sheets and think that may be the issue. Can I ask what your son used to stop the rash and how long it took for it to go??
We’ve been in hospital today and been given antihistamines but she’s getting worse and I’m just SO worried!

TIA
