NOTE: Soap nuts are a gentle, but effective, low sudsing alternative to detergent. You will not experience the same amount of sudsing as commercial soap based detergents and this takes some time to get used to. Remember that the amount of suds does not equate to the amount of cleansing! You will experience effective cleansing with soap nuts for all household needs.
Store soap nuts in a cool dry place away from direct sunlight
