I like my clothes to smell clean, not overwhelmingly floral or overbearingly woodsy. In a world full of detergents, I never really had a favorite brand. I think most laundry products do the best job in getting refreshingly clean clothes, and there are those that would leave your clothes smelling like you-just-did-your-laundry coming off too strong 🙂 I prefer a scent that is more subdued (neither masculine nor feminine) more like heavenly or cotton blossom-y.
Well, I chanced upon Scrub.sg detergent products while scrolling through Shopee’s marketplace. What’s the lure? the eye-catching laundry bottles/containers/choice of font/enticing labels/ product presentation/brand identity….
Safe to say, it was the subconscious visual stimuli that hit “add to cart” 😛
With the plethora of options, a packaging that’s easy on the eyes stands out.
Let’s dig down further into this review and find out if Scrub.sg’s products fit the bill.
3 in 1 Laundry Capsules and Fresh & Floral Liquid Detergent
3 in 1 LAUNDRY CAPSULES
The choices were once limited to just powder boxes and liquid detergent bottles. Now we have it in water soluble, single-dose pods or capsules with the 3 in 1 function: detergent + softener + stain remover. How convenient! it removes the guesswork of how much powder or liquid to pour for each load plus it is said to be 10x more powerful than regular detergents.
Your hands must be completely dry when handling the capsules as they might dissolve quickly. A single capsule is usually good enough for a regular load of laundry (5 kg). The capsule must be added to the empty drum before throwing in the clothes. These capsules can be used for both top load and front load washers.
Scrub.sg’s 3 in 1 laundry capsules work great in removing everyday grime and stains (coffee, milo), in delivering a fresh clean scent without being overpowering and somehow my clothes look a bit brighter too. A single capsule is indeed concentrated, with its triple-action formula doing the heavy lifting…making laundry day a little less exhausting. I was afraid the capsule won’t fully dissolve and had to re-wash some clothes but there hasn’t been any residue after each wash. Phew!
FRESH & FLORAL LIQUID DETERGENT
This also fits the bill. It has a light, floral scent and a little goes a long way. I just find it to be too sticky 😛 probably because it is super duper concentrated. The liquid detergent is gentle on the skin and nose so it’s ideal for hand washing too. It has a built-in stain remover hence its cost-efficient.
ULTRA-CLEAN OXI POWDER
I have yet to deal with a seriously dirty laundry so I cannot fully attest if this one truly has a major stain-removing power. I am using this for my whites and I’m very happy with the results. I feel like my T-Shirts look brand new once again. It is chlorine-free which explains its neutral scent. I especially appreciate that this oxi powder is versatile, can be used for both white & colored fabrics hence there is no need to buy separate anti-stain products.
CLEAN & TIDY WASHING POWDER
I admit there was no reason for me to buy their washing powder yet because I already love using the capsule and liquid detergent counterparts. Again, packaging 😀
This is just too pink to ignore. I mainly use this to hand wash our kitchen towels and to clean the sink. It is not too soapy but I can tell it is concentrated and really pulls away dirt and grease. This will be my go-to laundry saver when the capsule and liquid detergents are out. 🙂
SOFT & FRAGRANT FABRIC SOFTENER
Saving the best for last because she is my favorite. It’s infused with rose but somehow the scent reminds me of Comfort’s Ultra Pure Fabric Conditioner. If only the scent could linger for a few days or forever. It’s a quintessential fabric softener smell, though slightly gentle. Beyond the fragrance, this also softens my clothes after each wash.
Final Thoughts About the Brand:
Well, well…I mean…this brand had me at their packaging. I never thought I would be blogging about laundry detergents 😀 You can take it as Scrub.sg is like skincare to my clothes. If you’re the type of person who thinks laundry should not only smell clean but also feel clean, Scrub.sg is the economical way to achieve that. Plus carrying heavy laundry bottles from supermarket is a thing of the past, Scrub.sg delivers the products right to your doorstep with each item carefully packed. Give it a try and shop from the comforts of your pajamas, with a cup of coffee and some background music.

May 22, 2020 at 11:31 pmHey, at the moment I think they only cater to SG market. You can contact them directly thru IG, FB or Shopee I guess. Good day!
