Purex Complete Crystals Softener Review and Giveaway (3 Winners)

I was recently accepted as a Purex Insider, giving me the inside scoop on new products and promotions!  In addition, I'm able to test and review products before they even become available in stores!

I received my "Welcome Kit" a couple days ago and it included a new and exciting product.  The product that I received was Purex Complete Crystals Softener.


Today is the day that Purex Complete Crystals Softener launches in Wal-Mart stores across the country.

The first thing I noticed almost immediately was the scent.  It smelled heavenly, even my hubby liked the smell.  I was super excited to throw a load of laundry into the washer and try these out for the very first time.  It has been 2 days since I washed my clothes and they still smell great!

I want to know that my clothes are clean and fresh, especially my children's clothing. With Purex Complete Crystals Softener, I am pretty confident that I am getting those results.  They leave our clothes smelling fresh and clean.  They also leave our clothes soft and static-free!



Purex Complete Crystals come in three wonderful scents:
  • Fresh Water Springs (the scent I tried) 
  • Lavender Blossom
  • Tropical Splash

    Purex Complete Crystals work the same way in both top loaders and HE washers.  Simply pour the crystals directly onto your laundry in the washer’s drum and then start the load of laundry.  The crystals do not go into the fabric softener dispenser!


    Purex Complete Crystals Softeners are safe for all laundry and will not harm, wear down or discolor your fabrics like oil-based softeners.  Safe for all fabrics, including baby clothes, athletic wear, towels, and whites.
    Unlike other fabric softeners, Crystals WILL:

    • Preserve the flame retardant benefits of your children’s clothes
    • Retain your athletic wear’s wicking ability which draws sweat away from your body
    • Maintain your towels’ built-in ability to absorb water
    • Keep your white clothing from yellowing and graying vs. using traditional softeners

    The product won’t harm your clothes and is safe and convenient for the entire family!



    P.S.  There are still available spots in the Purex Insiders program for more influential bloggers.



    WIN IT:

     THREE (3) lucky Being Frugal and Making it Work readers are each going to receive a coupon for a FREE full size bottle of Purex Complete Crystals Softner

    Mandatory Entry:

    Tell me which Purex Crystals scent you are most excited to try
