Great for sensitive skin

I bought Downy free and gentle fabric softener to use on my grandson's clothes because he has sensitive skin but I use it for everyone's laundry. I like that it's unscented and free of dyes

Sensitive

I love down. You can never go wrong. It's a classic. This is used for my baby who has sensitive skin. It doesn't smell bad if anything smells clean.

Exciting New Product

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been using the Ultra Down free & gentle for a few weeks now and I'm thrilled with the results! The consistency of the liquid is perfect, no dyes or perfumes which makes it perfect for my little one with sensitive skin. No spots left behind on any of my clothing like with some other products. I've noticed my sheets even softer and less static in my clothes. I intend to continue using this for a long time.

Soft Sheets Again!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I honestly thought my days of using fabric softener were over! Our family dog (we refer to her as our sons' "little sister"; she kind of rules the house) has terrible allergies. As part of preventative measures, I switched to hypoallergenic detergent and cleaning supplies. I had always used Downy fabric softener in the past but was unaware that a fragrance- and dye-free option was available. As soon as I got my hands on a bottle, I stripped our beds and washed everything. Everything came out of the washer smelling clean but not perfumed, and it is so nice to sleep on SOFT sheets again! Downy Fabric Conditioner is going to be a staple in our house from now on!

Nothing special

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the fact that this is a gentle fabric softener, no dyes, and it is hypoallergenic! So use this with your laundry detergent. it didn't make a huge difference with our clothes. They didn't feel softer. I would not rush to buy this again. I love the look of it..very fresh and clean style!

Ultra Downy Free and Gentle

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think that Ultra Downy Free & Gentle is a great product. It fits very well with the rest of their line of fabric softeners. I don't personally have to use a fragrance and dye-free product but for those that do, I would certainly this product.

Ultra Downy free and gentle is great

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was skeptical at first. Don’t most people use fabric softener for the smell? After using the entire bottle I received to review, I’m in love. My towels are actually fluffy! More than with the scented stuff. My clothes feel great. I’ll definitely buy this product. No one in my household suffers from skin sensitivities so I’m not sure if others would react. I used it on my husband’s as well as toddlers clothes and all is well. I’d suggest this to my best friends.

Great product for my baby!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was looking for an alternative to the dryer sheets and wanted something f that wouldn’t irritate my baby’s skin. I thought this was great product and gentle on skin for my 7 month old daughter! Clothes and sheets felt great after!

Downy Free & Gentle Fabric Conditioner

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After trying Downy Free & Gentle Fabric Conditioner I am hooked. I have not purchased liquid fabric softeners in several years due to the over bearing scents. Both my husband and I have allergies. Although laundry detergents have been "free & clear", the fabric softeners seemed to be increasing in scents & it was becoming more difficult to find one that did not cause an allergic reaction. I was pleasantly surprised to find that not only did I not have an allergic reaction, but that my clothes were softer and more fluffy. My clothes not only smell clean, but now they also feel clean. I would recommend this to anyone, especially those who cannot use scented products.

Fabric softener

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This fabric softener is definitely great for sensitive skin. It has a little perfume smell to it but it didn't make my skin react in any way. It leaves clothes soft like any other softener but just without the chemicals in others.
