Skin rash head to toe

I am covered from head to toe with a terrible skin rash. Waking up in the middle of the night scratching myself raw. My skin is torn to bits. I've been keeping a food diary for weeks, have undergone expensive allergy tests only to find out that I have no new allergies, but Tide has changed their formula without any warning. I've been using Tide my entire life. This is more than an upset. It's an outrage.

Reformulated with a potent allergen

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I don't know why they decided to add benzisothiazolinone (BIT) to this, but now anyone who's allergic to this or the related methylisothiazolinone (MI) or methylchloroisothiazolinone (MCI) can't use it. I was lucky enough to catch it before I used it, otherwise I would have broken out in a rash. This is one more thing to add to the list of products I can't use.

Can't use anymore

I used to love tide with bleach alternative, but since last year it just makes me itch so badly I had to change brands. I love the way it cleans, but they did something to the formula to cause an allergic reaction. Very upset with this formula change.

Superior product for sensitive skin!

Tide Free & Gentle is my favorite laundry detergent. I have sensitive skin and allergies, even getting hives from use of some detergents, but this product cleans really well without any harsh scents or dyes and works great for me. My clothes always come out feeling fresh and soft and not irritated at all. I love that it is dermatologist recommended. Since it is sensitive and not harsh, I am also able to do friends and families laundry when they visit and know that this product will not irritate them. I'll definitely keep using this and buying in bulk! Also as a side note we are repainting and redoing our laundry room!! 😃

Tide Free & Gentle is Plain and Simple 🧼

I absolutely have to use this detergent for everything. It is gentle on my family's skin and still cleans heavy items like my comforter and rugs. There is no scent so you can always add in fabric softeners and fragrance. I personally like to add in baking soda to strip any odors. I will always purchase this detergent because it works, plain and simple.

Whites are white and colored are bright

I usually buy the bigger version as it is much more money saving option. It works wonders on the kids stains, and never saw any rushes or allergies coming back after starting to use it. Fabrics are clean and conditioned. The product dissolves very well not leaving any strikes on clothes . Good concentration as small amount goes for very long period.

Free of unnecessary dyes

Free and Gentle is my favorite Tide, I have purchased it several times. It has a light fragrance, not over powering and still gets rid of stains better than any other brand. Several family members have eczema and have said they notice a difference between this and Tide Original.

Great for sensitivity

I've been using Tide Free & Gentle for my family, and it's been amazing for sensitive skin. It cleans clothes thoroughly without any harsh fragrances or dyes, and everything comes out fresh and soft. I love that it removes everyday stains while still being gentle enough for allergies and skin sensitivities. The packaging is easy to use, pours cleanly, and doesn't leave any residue behind. This is now our go-to detergent for everyday laundry. Great concentration and durability.

TIDE

excellent job cleaning my clothes while still being gentle on my skin. I have sensitive skin, and this detergent caused no irritation at all, which is a huge plus for me. It has no strong fragrance, which I really like, and my clothes came out feeling fresh, clean, and soft every time. It worked well on everyday stains and rinsed out easily without leaving residue. I'm very happy with this product and would definitely continue using it and recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable, gentle detergent.

Excellent detergent

Excellent detergent .It cleans clothes thoroughly without irritating the skin , which is ideal for people with sensitive skin, allergies, or for baby clothes. It's fragrance free and dye free, yet still leaves clothes feeling fresh and truly clean. It's definitely a high quality reliable detergent and totally worth it . I highly recommend it.
