Smells Amazing!

Anyone who has pets will tell you that it can be hard to get oders out of furniture and clothing. I've struggled for years getting the dog smell out of my sheets. After using Fresh-Protect In-Wash Oder Shield, my sheets stayed maintained a fresh scent for over a week! A must have for any pet owner. Though I received this product as a free sample for testing purposes, all opinions are my own.

New Go-To

In our household, my husband and brother work outside for long hours. I also spend several hours outside, whether it be for work, working out, walking dogs, etc. I have started using scent beads about 1 year ago in our laundry. I noticed that the clothes didn't seem to stink as quickly as they had before hand, and that the bedsheets and towels kept a nice scent to them as well. It's quite nice to be able to crawl into bed, or use a towel and it not have that deplorable body funk smell in it. The guys like that it's not a "girl-y smell", but that's its still a fresh clean smell that doesn't over power the nose. I like that all of the granules dissolve. I have had a few scent bead brands that I tried out where they didn't completely dissolve. **I received this product for free in exchange for a honest review. All opinions are my own and have not been influenced.**

great product

I was slightly hesitant to try this because I was concerned it may leave a strange residue on my clothes. The first time I tried it I used have the recommended amount, which left a nice smell on my clothes but no residue. I decided to be brave and use the actual amount and wow am I amazed at the scent. All of my clothes smell so fresh and they don't feel any different. This was sent to me for review but I will definitely be purchasing.

I love this product and recommend it

Downy fresh protect beads are my new favorite laundry product. I love having a floral scent in my clothes. I used to use scented laundry sheets a long time ago and stopped because they seems ineffective. These beads keep my clothes scented until the next wash! I recommend them and will be purchasing them. I received the downy fresh protect beads for free from influenster in exchange for my honest opinion.

Surprising product

I was hesitant to try this product, as it seemed a bit gimmicky. I wasn't sure it would work. When I opened my free sample bag to test, the scent was fairly strong. I was still on the fence. I have 2 small kids and a husband who all work and play hard and their clothes are always dirty and smelly by night fall. Downy fresh protect was AMAZING. it was a lightning fresh scent that lasted well. A week later, the clothes still smell like spring. I am hooked. Loved this product. I was able to try this product for free, but all opinions are my own.

Interesting product

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really wasn't sure that the beads would do anything more then a good detergent would do. I was wrong though. I have a child who some nights wets the bed and as we all know that is a pretty nasty smell. I added the beads to that load and surprisingly the sheets came out smelling better then ever. And the sheets stayed smelling great for a couple of days. The beads are simple to use and did a great job.

Love the smell.

I received these through an Influenster box (though all opinions are my own). I was really excited about this product. I wanted to use them on workout clothes, which I feel like never really smell quite clean enough. It worked great and kept my clothes smelling fresh!

Smells great & awesome brand! But...

I was excited to try out Downey's fresh protect April fresh inwash odor shield I applied it to two loads of laundry my whites whites and darks . I used cold and hot water because the beads didn't seem to desolve in cold. Unfortunately it didn't work in hot water either and at the end if the cycle I notice the beads were in clumps stuck on the washer and on the clothes, it left marks on my black clothes. So I had to re wash everything . needless to say I will not be purchasing this product I prefer liquid softener . I Recieved this product complementary for testing purposes from influenster.

Yummy Scent

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Smells great, and worked at doing exactly what it said it would do. I liked this product for the most part and the presentation is quite unique but would be great for partitioning how much of a product you use as I tend to like a bit less of laundry products than most people. But it is a fantastic product and is definitely worth trying out.
