Every couple days, I do a load of cloth diaper laundry. Cloth diaper laundry is a necessary chore, but doesn't have to be something I dread. I actually enjoy doing laundry if I get to smell a great detergent in the process! I hate to rinse, wash and rinse again, only to have a bunch of diaper that still stink. If you don't have a good detergent, that will be the outcome. I have used quite a few detergents, and have had this issue come up before.
About
Little Love Buns is owned by a mama of three named Dallas. She started cloth diapering after the birth of her twins. After trying several brands of diaper detergent, and dealing with stain & stench issues, she was not satisfied so she started to make her own. One of her children has sensitive skin so she wanted to come up with a solution that would help and not hurt her skin. After trying different blends, she finally came up with a recipe that worked for her. That is when Little Love Buns detergent was born!
Let me start off by telling you that I love to sniff things. My husband thinks I am weird.
I was impressed by how many delicious scents I found available at Little Love Buns. I was able to chose the scent and after about 10 minutes of deciding which I would like best, I decided to go with the Cherry Almond.
Dallas sent me a full sized bag of Little Love Buns ( Cherry Almond scent)
cloth diaper detergent to review. I just could not wait to sniff this!! As soon as I received the bag, I ripped the bag open and took my first whiff. The scent was so pleasant and not super strong. It was a crisp, clean scent and smelt a lot like cherries!
I did my first load of diapers with Little Love Buns detergent that day. I usually add a tsp of dawn dish soap to each load, but I decided to go without to put Little Love Buns to the ultimate test~ could it get rid of the stink?? I did my usual wash routine. Wash diapers with cold water for one cycle (no detergent), do another cycle with hot water WITH detergent (I added 3 tsps of detergent), and then finally, just one cold rinse cycle. I was extremely happy with the results. My diapers not only smelt free of odor, but also looked great! There were a few stains on some of the diapers that looked a bit lighter than they were before using Little Love Buns detergent.
I am very pleased with this detergent. I have not had any issues with stink since I started using it and my diapers ALWAYS come out of the washer looking clean!

This is the second positive review that I have seen on this detergent...so I am really interested to try it! It is amazing that you got such amazing results with an easy wash routine. I have used at least a dozen detergents that left residue with lead to ammonia problems, even after multiple hot post rinses.
