Does fabric softener actually make a difference?
Softener does three jobs detergent cannot: it relaxes fibres, cuts static from dryer use, and keeps towels from turning to cardboard in hard water. This category stocks original softeners in the UAE's favourite scents. Dose by drum size, not by cap-to-the-top — overdosing coats fabric and traps odour instead of preventing it.
Why do my towels smell musty after washing?
Softener overdose or washing at low temperatures. Run towels hot monthly with half your usual softener dose.
Is softener safe for baby clothes?
Choose a sensitive-skin softener, or skip it for newborn items — see our baby laundry guide for the full routine.
