Yorkshire Soap Flakes
Ideal for
How to use:
How to use: First of all make a laundry liquid: Mix 20g flakes with 0.5 litre of hot water, stir to dissolve. Allow to cool and decant into a tub with a lid. You can use this this mix straight away. Please note the liquid will set to a jelly like consistency overnight. This mix gives you: 10 hand washes or 7- 10 machine washes.
A 500g bag of Yorkshire Soap Flakes gives you 162 - 250 washes in total.
For hand washing - dilute the ready made mix in a bowl of warm water. Use 3 tablespoons (or a scoop) to 5 litres of warm water
For machine washing: use 3 - 5 tbs (or 1 - 2 scoops) depending on laundry of ready made mix into the drawer dispenser/washing ball. Every now and then run your washing machine on an empty hot wash cycle with a dose of white vinegar.
Top tips:
For hard water areas you can add between 50-100mls of white vinegar (distilled) in the fabric conditioner compartment every now and then (this depends on how much washing you do, but start with every 2 months). You can do this in conjunction with a wash or you can run the machine empty and add.
Vinegar has a natural softening action, so you can add to your laundry wash every time if you like!
For brightening your whites, add 1 tbsp of Sodium Percarobante to your wash (or a small scoop of soda crystals)
For a scented wash, add a few drops of essential oils to your washing liquid mix, whatever scent you like - good ones to add for washing are lavender, citrus or tea-tree.

Used for hiking woollen socks and added in bra and two tee shirts. Everything is like new - especially the cotton tee shirts feel like they have never been washed because they are so soft - and everything is like they have NEVER been near detergent. Why will I need anything else. Fantastic!
I have been using Yorkshire Soap Flakes for a couple of years now. It works well both for hand washing and for machine washing. I have not had any problems with it.
I have sensitive skin so I find this product to be knder to my skin than the laundry products available in the supermarkets
Bought Natural Soap Flakes to wash my waterproof coats in the washing machine. Flakes diluted easily & excess has been saved for next wash. Very happy with the result & happy to recommend this product.
It's perfect for all my breathable walking gear because there is no detergent to block the breather vents just pure soap. Also I don't need as much per wash so it is more economical.
Needed soap flakes for a (Danish) soap finish on a table I had made. With water 1 to 2 to 1 flakes the soap has made a lovely paste which I tried out on a couple of trays to excellent effect
Great value product seems to clean everything fine. It mixes up to give a lot of washing 'goop' - it mixes into a satisfyingly gloopy gel and you get a lot of it. I add some lavender oil to make the washing smell nice and some white vinegar to the rinse and it works a treat.
Have enjoyed using the flakes. Made up a solution and am storing in 2 plastic lidded tubs (takeaway boxes). First use was on towelling dressing gown. It came out clean and very soft without fabric conditioner.
