How to Use

To keep your favorite dark clothing looking newer, longer, use Oxygen Brightener Dark Wash as a booster in every cycle:

Step 1. Choose either very warm or hot water.

Step 2. Add two full scoops of Oxygen Brightener Dark Wash directly to the drum of your washing machine. For extra brightening and stain-removing power, allow the laundry to soak for up to two hours.

Step 3. Follow up the wash cycle in the dryer with our Wool Dryer Balls to naturally soften fabrics!

To use Oxygen Brightener Dark Wash to strip hard water minerals: 

Step 1. Choose either very warm or hot water.

Step 2. Add 1-3 full scoops of Oxygen Brightener Dark Wash directly to the drum of your washing machine or soak in a tub or laundry basin and soak for up to two hours.

Step 3. Follow up with a complete wash cycle with laundry detergent in your machine and dry as usual.

PRO TIP: Lift tough stains by creating a paste of Oxygen Brightener Dark Wash and rubbing it into the stained area with your Laundry Stain Brush. Allow it to sit for up to two hours before scraping away the excess and laundering as usual. Perfect for removing stains without bleaching out colors.

DID YOU KNOW? The sun is a powerful natural brightener. Laying clean, wet clothing, shoes, sheets, or cloth diapers in the sun to dry can naturally brighten them even more!

Learn More About Our Natural Oxygen Brightener

Our oxygen brightener doesn’t only brighten and protect in the laundry room — it has stain-lifting properties all over your home! Here are a couple of our favorite additional uses for Oxygen Brightener Dark Wash.

Extra carpet cleaning power! Add a scoop of brightener to the water compartment of your carpet cleaner for extra brightening power. Perfect for vibrant colors and other dark patterns. (Do NOT do this on wool carpeting or silk rugs.)

Brighten your granite countertops! Toss some Oxygen Brightener Dark Wash onto your countertops and scrub with a soft-bristled brush. Rinse away the remainder to reveal newly whitened surfaces.

Laundry Booster! Add brightener to your normal wash to give some extra boosting and brightening power. This is especially helpful for those with hard water, as all the minerals in the water tend to block the cleaning power of detergents and laundry powders.

Customer Reviews (4.5 / 5 · 11 reviews)

Emma W. ★★★★★

I was skeptical about an oxygen-based cleaner for my dark clothes, but this restored a faded black tee to almost-new color after just one soak. No harsh chemical smell either, which is a huge plus for me.

Grace ★★★★★

Finally, a dark wash product that actually keeps my black tees from turning that weird gray after a few washes. I love that it uses oxygen instead of harsh chemicals—my clothes feel softer and the color is noticeably richer.

Riley S. ★★★★★

I was skeptical about a no-bleach brightener for my dark laundry, but this powder lifted dinginess from my black tee without fading it at all. The formula dissolves completely in warm water with no residue.

Timothy ★★★★★

My black jeans had faded to a muddy gray after just a few washes, but this oxygen brightener brought them back to a deep, rich color without any harsh chemical smell. It's really gentle on the fabric too, so I'm not worried about damaging the material.

Miles X. ★★★★★

I was skeptical about a non-toxic brightener, but this powder actually keeps my dark wash tees from fading after several washes. The fact that it’s safer to handle without gloves is a huge plus for me.

Carter ★★★★★

The powder dissolved completely in cold water, so my black t-shirts actually look black again instead of that washed-out gray. This is the first brightener I've tried that doesn't leave my hands irritated afterward.

Natalie Y. ★★★★★

After a few washes, my dark jeans were looking faded, but this brightener brought back that deep, rich color without any harsh chemical smell. It's so simple to use—just toss it in with the regular load.

Evelyn U. ★★★★★

This one actually worked on my black t-shirts without leaving any fading or weird residue. The fact that it uses oxygen instead of bleach really makes a difference for keeping dark colors deep.

Ryan V. ★★★★☆

Works really well for keeping my black jeans from fading, but I wish the bottle had a bit more product for the price. The oxygen formula is definitely gentler than bleach and gets out everyday stains without a harsh smell.

Eli ★★★☆☆

It works, but you really have to soak things for a while to see any difference on dark colors. The instructions could be clearer about that.
