Rockin' Green Detergent Review and Giveaway


Washing cloth diapers can be very intimidating. A quick google search on the topic will give you all kinds of differing advice on detergents, additives, and routines. It seems like everyone has their own method. Not to mention all the controversy over detergents and the fact that using detergents with particular ingredients can void the warranties on your cloth diapers.

Luckily, Rockin' Green Cloth Diaper Detergent makes the whole process extremely easy! Kim, the brains behind GADBaby.com developed Rockin' Green to work safely on all cloth diapers (as well as all of your regular clothing).

Rockin' Green detergent should definitely be on your laundry playlist! It comes in 2 "rockin" formulas for you to choose from (with a special "hard rock" version to be released this year) and several fun scents.

Rockin’ Green is:

  • Dye free
  • Comes in several yummy scents (& an unscented version for sensitive skin)
  • No fillers
  • No enzymes or optical brighteners
  • 100% Phosphate free
  • Vegan
  • Great for sensitive skin
  • Easy rinsing formula
  • Approved for military use
  • Works wonders on microfiber stink!
  • Perfect for cloth diapers
  • HE compatible
  • Reusable packaging
  • Great for all water types
  • Economical at .13 cents a load!
And did I mention the yummy scents? An unscented option is also available, or you can choose from any of the following:

  • Fresh Linen- Blend of Lily and Jasmine. Comparable to Bath & Body Works Fresh Linen.
  • Baby Powder- smells like freshly powdered baby.
  • Cherry Almond- yummy cherries mixed with almonds. (Best Seller!)
  • Vanilla Lavender- a soft fragrance of yummy vanilla and lavender.
  • Monkey Snacks- A tropical blend of Banana, Coconut, Lime, Orange, Grapefruit, Bergamot, and Clove. Smells like Banana Laffy Taffy! (Best Seller!)
  • Cherry Lemonade- Blend of Cherry, Lemon, and Berry. Reminds me of a Cherry Limeade from Sonic!
  • Vanilla Buttercream- it’s like a cupcake without the calorie guilt! (Best Seller!)
  • Mango Sorbet
  • Grape Soda- reminds me of summers as a kid
  • Peppermint cocoa – it’s a peppermint hot chocolate on a cold winter day
So what did I think?
I contacted Kim when our diapers started getting a weird burned smell to them. She was able to troubleshoot my issue, and recommended an overnight hot soak with some Rockin Green, which worked perfectly. I have since been using RG, along with some Bac-Out, and I haven't had anymore issues. I ordered a big bag of Vanilla Lavender, and now my laundry room smells like a spa. I can't wait to try some of the other yummy scents.
