How to Use Downy Hypoallergenic for Automatic and Semi Automatic Washing Machine

How to Use Downy Hypoallergenic for Automatic Washing Machine? and how about Semi Automatic Washing Machine?

I never thought I will ever have this kind of problem in life.. not until my mom prompted me to buy a semi automatic washing machine. The idea behind buying a semi automatic washing machine is to teach the kids how to do the laundry without being intimidated by our big automatic washing machine.

We have been using an 11 kg washing machine and my mother thinks it is a bit big for the kids. They say mothers know best, kaya sundin si mother.

So first, let me give you a quick talk about semi automatic washing machine vs automatic washing machine and their main difference.

With semi, you don’t do the washing but you need to operate it step by step. So it’s like someone is doing it for you but you’re guiding them. That’s why it’s called semi automatic.

Automatic washing machine on the hand, when it’s done, all you need to do is dry it or in some washing machine that has a built in dryer, you just have to fold it.

Sweet no? So when and how do you put Downy Hypoallergenic? And why use Downy Hypoallergenic for automatic washing machine?

Siguro iniisip nyo pang baby lang naman ang Downy Hypoallergenic, and it is easier to wash baby clothes on smaller washing machine o kaya hand wash, why use it sa automatic washing machine? Because you can also use Downy Hypoallergenic on your beddings, on your clothes, and towels. Downy Hypoallergenic is dermatologically tested with 0% dyes and 0% din ang added preservatives. Safe to use sa kahit anong damit. And we wash our towels sa automatic washing machine.

How to use it with automatic washing machine? Most automatic washing machine has a fabric conditioner dispenser. You put the Downy Hypoallergenic at the dispenser before starting a cycle. The washing machine is programmed to release the fabric conditioner during rinse time.

For semi automatic washing machine, we put Downy Hypoallergenic during the last rinse cycle. For better effect, spin dry the clothes first while putting water into the tub, pour the required amount of Downy Hypoallergenic (please read the back package for instruction). Start the washing machine and put the clothes back for the last rinse.

Based on our experience Downy Hypoallergenic works well in both washing machine. You just have to read and follow the instruction from the back.

Downy Hypoallergenic is now available in leading supermarkets but with our current situation now, we’re our buying ours from Downy Official Online store in Lazada: Downy Hypoallergenic Official Store

Downy Hypoallergenic comes in 5 sizes (23 ml, 36 ml, 690 ml, 1380 ml, and 800 ml). I recommend you buying the 800ml bottle then just buy the 1380 ml refill the next time you need it. The bottle cap is very useful when measuring how much Downy Hypoallergenic you need to put in your laundry.

5 Tried And Tested Ways to Prevent Body Odor

The usual problem that we encounter during summer is body odor, specially with my kids who are very very active. We used to believe that it is because of sweat. A few readings online told me that sweat does not have a smell. So where do the odor comes from?

You know there’s this thing called odor-causing germs. When we sweat, the bacteria on our skin digests our sweat and that’s what us smell bad. Siguro pwede nating sabihin, yung amoy natin, utot ng bacteria yun.

5 Tried And Tested Ways to Prevent Body Odor

Take a bath. During the days that is cool, take a bath once a day. During hot seasons, you should do it twice a day. Taking a bath gets rid of odor causing germs in your skin. Take extra special care on these parts of the body as these are the body parts where odor is most likely to occur:

feet
groin
armpits
under breast
behind the ears
neck and back of neck

As you take a bath, make sure that you soap these body parts more than usual. Use soap like Safeguard as it can kill 99.9% germs.
Clothing. Use clothes that are light in terms of material and color. Darker clothes attracts more heat thus making you sweat more. As we have mentioned earlier, odor causing germs loves sweat.

Use fabric conditioner that can help you with odor causing germs. We use Downy Antibac with the power of Safeguard. Tried and tested in helping me manage my kids body odor. When we started using it., I noticed that even after playing in the sun, my kids does not smell that bad.

Downy Antibac with the power of Safeguard is available in supermarkets nationwide. You can also buy it online at Safeguard Official Online store in Lazada: Click here for the link of the store.

Use deodorant. How does deodorant works? It works by killing the bacteria on your skin and also works in a way that it helps you reduce your sweat. What’s the best type of deodorant? tawas for me! It’s antibacterial and clog the skin pores. It works just by eliminating the odor causing germs.

Drink more water. It works like magic to us. When kids are well hydrated, they smell better, meaning they don’t smell as bad as when theyre drinking colored drinks. So we try to avoid that as much as possible. The goal is for them to drink 2 liters of water a day.

Yes it is true that people who sweat more are more prone to body odor but always remember that it is caused by odor causing germs. We have to be #germprotektado para protektado din tayo sa baho.

Downy Hypoallergenic Review

What will make you love a certain product? Or what will make you trust a certain brand? Based on my experience, I really have to try it first before I can say na it is really something worth my money and worth sharing to my followers. So when I heard that Downy Philippines launched Downy Hypoallergenic, dapat talaga ma try ko muna before I make a review of it.

I have always thought that fabcon is harsh for Marius skin. So as much as possible, we try not to put fabcon on his clothes. I feel like the strong smell of fabcon can irritate his skin and his nose.

So what made me try using Downy Hypoallergenic? Eh kase naman this is the first time that I’ve seen a FabCon that is dermatologically tested with 0% dyes and 0% din ang added preservatives. So it makes me wonder, oka kaya talaga? And the smell, I hope it is not too much for us.

Initial reaction when I first saw Downy Hypoallergenic.. ang angelic niya tingan. The white packaging with hints of pink and blue somehow tells that yes it is safe to use for the baby.

The color of the product itself is white giving me assurance that it really has 0% dyes.

How was the smell? It’s actually light. My main concern na baka the smell will irritate my baby’s noise is tackled. The smell is powdery but very light. Parang baby lang na bagong ligo. It actually reminds me of being fresh.

I was surprised how soft it made Marius clothes with a fresh feel to it. Baby na baby ang dating ng amoy for me. And because Downy Hypoallergenic is dermatologically tested with 0% dyes and added preservatives, alam ko na safe to use sa mga damit ni Marius.

What surprised me the most is how it felt when I used it with our towels and beddings. The smell that I have been looking for my bed is this. This is the kind of smell that I want to sleep with.

Final Verdict on Downy Hypoallergenic: ADD TO CART NA. Downy Hypoallergenic is now included on our laundry grocery list.   And I know that with our current situation, buying groceries can be a bit challenging, kaya we opt to buy some of our groceries online.
