Fabric softener in laundry capsules?

Hi! 😁

I've recently made the change in using reusable period products (menstrual panties & reusable pads/csp). I know that you can't use fabric softeners when washing reusable period products as it affects the absorption, and currently we're using Formil (Lidl's brand) non-bio 3-in-1 pods. I've searched everywhere but can't seem to find information on wether the 3-in-1 includes fabric softener?

On the other hand I read that generally most non-bio laundry detergents don't have softeners in them as they're obviously meant for people with sensitive skin. But I'd like to be sure before using them with my reusables 😅.
Does anyone know for sure? TIA ❤️

Think its only Bold that has fabric softener in the capsules. What does it say the 3 functions are?

@dementedpixie that's the thing, it doesn't say! 🤣 It just says it 'cleans, cares, and freshen' 😅

It doesn't say 'softens' so i would say it likely doesn't contain a softener

@dementedpixie I was thinking the same thing, haha! Thanks so much ❤️
