Meliora Soap Stick Stain Remover
Important Note on Laundry Stain Products
Conventional stain removers often rely on fragrance, preservatives, and stronger surfactants or solvents to break down stains.
For individuals with sensitive skin — or for items like children’s clothing and bedding — I tend to prefer simpler, fragrance-free stain options made with more traditional soap-based ingredients.
Because stain sticks come into direct contact with fabric (and skin later), ingredient transparency can be an important consideration.
What I Avoid
• Undisclosed synthetic fragrances
• Preservatives like methylisothiazolinone
• Optical brighteners
• Petroleum-derived surfactants or solvents
• Artificial dyes
What I Look For
• Simple soap-based formulas
• Plant or mineral-derived ingredients
• Fragrance-free or essential oil-free options
• Biodegradable ingredients
Product Description
The Meliora Soap Stick is a concentrated, soap-based stain remover designed to target common fabric stains like food, grass, oils, and dirt.
It relies on traditional vegetable soap chemistry rather than synthetic detergents to help lift stains from fabric, making it a straightforward swap for conventional spray or gel removers.
When entered into the EWG Skin Deep Analyzer, the ingredient list scores a 1, reflecting a very low hazard profile based on available data.
Ingredients
Vegetable soap (sodium cocoate, glycerin, organic cocos nucifera (coconut) oil, water)
Things to Keep in Mind
This is a true soap-based formula, so it works best when applied directly to the stain and gently worked into fabric before laundering.
Heavier or set-in stains may require repeat treatment or soaking.
Because it’s free from synthetic fragrance and dyes, there’s no lingering scent left on clothing after washing.
