Our Founder, Dawn, battled with eczema herself growing up and when she realised how sensitive skin can be to normal detergents through her own struggles, the ecoegg Laundry Egg was born *applauds*. She wanted to design detergent that contained no nasties, and thus came up with detergent pellets.
Of course, the detergent pellets needed a sustainable home to perch themselves within. As a result, the reusable Laundry Egg was born *double applauds*.
So in answer to the question, it was the magic within the Laundry Egg which was born first. The detergent formula was at the crux of the solution to finding a sustainable, skin – friendly alternative to laundry day. It just so happens the Laundry Egg became its perfect partner in crime.
