Natural Bluing Powder – years old and still the best – also called aniel powder.
Tired of yellow/grey tinted white sheets?  Get those sheets whiter than white with this old-fashioned powder.  Return those expensive Egyptian cotton sheets to their former glory along with your shirts and undies!

  • highly concentrated – Use 1 tsp of bluing powder for a single sheet set, 2 tsp for double, queen or king. If sheets are really grey add 3 tsp. DO NOT IN HALE.
  • 35 teaspoons per 350g
  • must be added to final rinse when the tub is full to avoid staining.
  • DO NOT leave to soak, start the final rinse cycle immediately. If you soak you will get blue specks on your whites. This is NOT a soaker.


How Bluing Powder works …
The way that the bluing process works is to swap yellow pigments for blue pigments and vice versa. When we initially make our product it is blue, over time the blue pigment grabs the yellow pigment out of the baking soda so it looks yellow. When the product is diluted in LOTS of water, the baking soda dissolves away and the powder goes back to being blue and then attaches to the yellow pigments in the sheets, which is the first stage of the whitening process.

The second stage is when the sheets are left to dry in sun light, the second part of the whitening process occurs at this stage, leaving your sheets with that nice crisp white finish.
