Forget about machine washing your clothes when you’re overseas, all you need to do is soak them. The Minisoak Assorted Travel Pack by Soak is a fantastic way to freshen up your garments while on the go and eliminates the need for pesky washing machines.

 

The eco-friendly formula is made with plant-derived and renewable ingredients helping it to remain biodegradable and phosphate-, dye- and sulphate-free. When you’re ready to clean your clothes by hand simply fill up a sink with a gallon of cool water and pour a packet in. Then gently move the clothes around and let them soak for 15 minutes. Pull them out and let them air dry. There’s no need to rinse.

 

The Minisoak Assorted Travel Pack comes in four fresh fragrances including fig, yuzu, celebration and lacey. There are eight packs altogether, more than enough to get you through a month of travel. It works well on delicates as well as tough stains and can be put in the washing machine if you prefer.

 

We think they’re an excellent resource for travelers who might not have easy access to a laundry room while overseas. They’re even great for dealing with spot stains so you can whip these babies out on the plane in a pinch, great if you’re traveling with kids.

 

They’re available now on the Soak website.
