It's maybe not a huge event, but I just wrote a letter of complaint to those who make my clothes washing powder, Colgate-Palmolive. I spent a bit of time trying to find a washing powder that met a few simple criteria:
And in Cold Power I found just that. Of course, now they've gone and introduced a new fragrance, which, after smelling it just threw the last point out the window. Yuck.
I'm doing my first wash in it now, and we'll see if it still meets the second point.
Sheesh. It was hard enough finding this one. I don't want to have to do this all again (or go through the irritation again...)
Oh..and an addendum. With regard to the new fragrance there's this letter.
- Must work in cold water
- Must not cause irritation
- Must smell halfway decent
