What to know before buying

The listing describes the product as suitable for sensitive skin but also identifies it as bio detergent and warns that it causes serious eye irritation and contains subtilisin, which may produce an allergic reaction. Follow the label safety directions and do not treat the sensitive-skin claim as a guarantee against reactions.

Listing details to confirm

The 142-wash yield is a listing claim. Actual washes depend on dosing and usage conditions, which are not specified here.

Customer feedback describes the detergent as effective, pleasant-smelling and easy to pour, with reports of stain cleaning, long-lasting use and skin comfort. Those impressions may matter to buyers considering a scented, concentrated 5L liquid, but they do not establish performance for every stain, skin type or dose. Feedback also mentions reduced plastic waste, while the listed product volume and refill format alone do not confirm the packaging material or its environmental impact.

Frequently asked questions

How much detergent is in this refill?

The listing specifies 5000 Millilitres, or 5L, and claims a yield of 142 washes. Wash count may depend on how much is used per load.

How does the listing say to use it for stains?

It says to apply a small amount directly to a stain, wait 5 minutes, then wash as usual. It also describes pouring detergent into the machine drawer.

Is this detergent suitable for sensitive skin?

The details list sensitive skin, but this is a bio detergent and the warning says it causes serious eye irritation and contains subtilisin, which may produce an allergic reaction. The listing does not establish that it will suit every sensitive-skin user.

What safety precautions are stated?

Keep it out of reach of children. If it gets in the eyes, rinse cautiously with water for several minutes and remove contact lenses if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing and seek medical advice if irritation persists.
