Wonder Lab Sports Laundry Detergent White Flowers and Apple
I've tried a bunch of laundry detergents for my kids' sports gear, but Wonder Lab's White Flowers and Apple scent really stands out. It's tough on stains and leaves their clothes smelling fresh, not to mention a great value for money. I've been using it for a while now, and I'm consistently impressed with its performance and ease of use. I've noticed it's easy to get the right dose every time, and the shipping is always fast.

summarizeEditor's Summary
I was all set to give this eco-friendly laundry gel 5 stars, but then I had to wash my down jacket - what flaws showed up during washing? I recently picked up this eco-friendly laundry gel to wash my workout clothes, and I have to say, my entire workout wardrobe is black. Sometimes after washing, there are stubborn stains or a lingering detergent smell, which isn't exactly pleasant, especially during a workout. I thought this gel, being eco-friendly, would do a great job of rinsing out, not harm the fabric, and my clothes wouldn't fade or wear out as quickly. Let's see how well it performs, and if it's worth the hype.

PACKAGING/ DESIGN
The gel comes in a transparent plastic bottle with a comfortable grip. Holding it by the grip is super easy, the surface is slightly rough, not slippery, and even with wet hands, it won't slip out of your grasp. The design is visually appealing - it's a nice white and yellow color scheme. On the front of the bottle, you'll find the product name and brand, along with some key features. There's also an image of a hoodie that tells you what the product is for.

There's no protection against the first opening, and there's no separate measuring cup, unlike the universal detergents from the same brand that I've reviewed before.

WHAT'S IN IT?
Ingredients:
Water >30%, microgel polysaccharides (Biomicrogel®) 15-30%,
NPAP < 5 %, fragrance < 5 %, preservative < 5 %. Based on natural coconut oil.
I'm really impressed that the main component of this brand's products is microgel polysaccharides, which are made from vegetables and fruits and are super eco-friendly. This means they don't harm the environment, especially water bodies.
It's great to see that the product doesn't contain:
phosphates, phosphate-based compounds, enzymes, sulfates.
Although the manufacturer doesn't specify what preservatives they use, it's reassuring to see that they're based on natural coconut oil.

ORGANOLEPTICS
The gel has a pretty thick consistency - it's transparent, uniform, and has a light yellow tint with no sediment.
Wonder Lab laundry gel for sports clothes with white flowers and a pear reviewThere's a distinct aroma - I thought I'd smell the pear more, but the floral notes dominate. It smells like lily of the valley to me, which I'm not a huge fan of. The pear scent is subtle in the background.
I wouldn't say the smell is unpleasant, but it's definitely distinctive and might not appeal to everyone.

APPLICATION AND FEEL
I've got a few sets of sports clothes, but they're all black. On black, any stains are super noticeable. Plus, if you don't rinse your clothes right after a workout, you're left with salt residue from sweat, which can damage the fabric and make your clothes wear out faster.
I chose to show the effect of the gel by using only one pack, which is the newer one I have. I didn't use the older pack because it's already faded a bit, so I didn't take a photo of it. But I still used it to wash the clothes.
So, I wash my clothes in a washing machine at temperatures below 30 degrees, which also helps to preserve the fabric's structure and color better than washing in hot water. I add 2 scoops of the gel to the designated compartment for liquid detergents in the washing machine.
Wonder Lab gel for washing sports clothes with white flowers and apple reviewsI was pleased to find that there was no lingering scent of the detergent on the clothes after washing. I wouldn't have minded if there was a subtle apple scent, but the gel's smell was a bit too strong for my liking.
I also noticed that the gel rinses out of the fabric really well and leaves no streaks or residue. At least all my workout clothes came out without any streaks or detergent residue. I didn't even use a fabric softener.
It was a relief to see that the gel doesn't damage the fabric's structure and helps to preserve the color of the clothes. You can see from the photo below that the clothes came out without any streaks from the detergent or salt deposits. The clothes have no unpleasant odors, and they still feel soft to the touch.
Wonder Lab Stain Remover for Sports Gear - White Flowers and Apple ReviewsThis stuff works great on my sneakers and down jacket too. So, I decided to try it out on my winter coat, which I'd been meaning to wash for ages. But the regular detergent left those annoying stains, so I thought I'd give this a shot.
I wanted the stain remover to get rid of the tough stains completely, without leaving any residue behind. The stains were on the collar from a toner mishap, and my sleeves and pocket edges had gotten a bit salty. Here's what my down jacket looked like before washing.

Here's what the collar looked like with the toner stains.
Wonder Lab Stain Remover for Sports Gear - White Flowers and Apple ReviewsI washed it in the machine at a temperature below 30 degrees Celsius, without adding any extra detergent. I did, however, set the machine to a special rinse cycle after washing.
So, I washed the jacket and it looked great afterwards. Inside, everything was still in place, the paint hadn't peeled off, and the jacket hadn't shrunk. And when I dried it, it didn't lose its shape, and the fabric felt soft to the touch. The color hadn't faded or become discolored.
wonder lab sports laundry detergent white flowers and apple reviewsI didn't notice any shrinkage, whether it was from the front or the back. I decided to take a closer look at the collar area, where there was a stain from foundation. And I was pleased - the laundry detergent had even managed to tackle it on its own. At the same time, this area didn't fade or look like it stood out in any way. I made a collage photo to compare, but the angle is slightly different, and the lighting affected the color. Still, you can see that there are no remaining foundation stains.

There were some remaining stains on the front of the jacket, just below the waist area, on the cross-seam. It turns out that the laundry detergent doesn't fully rinse off and may leave some residue on certain areas of the fabric, especially on bulkier items like jackets and parkas.
