Is Sensitive Laundry Liquid suitable for people with sensitive skin, chemical sensitivities and allergies?Updated 7 hours ago

Yes. Koh Sensitive Laundry Liquid is formulated for people with sensitive skin, allergies, asthma, eczema, or general chemical sensitivities. It carries Sensitive Choice approval (a program run by the National Asthma Council Australia that identifies products suitable for people with asthma and allergies) and is Dermatest tested for skin tolerability. The formula is fragrance-free, dye-free, contains no chlorine bleach, no optical brighteners, and no phosphates. These are the most common detergent additives associated with skin reactions and respiratory triggers, leaving them out reduces the chance of irritation. The formula uses enzymes for cleaning rather than relying on perfumes to mask scents or harsh oxidisers, and is septic and greywater safe. While it's designed for sensitive use, individual reactions vary, so a patch test is sensible for highly reactive skin and a healthcare professional should be consulted for medically managed allergies.

Koh Sensitive Laundry Liquid carries two independent third-party certifications relevant to sensitive use. Sensitive Choice approval comes from the National Asthma Council Australia, which assesses products for suitability for people with asthma, allergies, and respiratory sensitivities. Dermatest testing assesses skin tolerability through dermatological evaluation. The formula also leaves out the additives most commonly associated with reactions: no added fragrance, no synthetic dyes, no chlorine bleach, no optical brighteners, no phosphates. The formula uses enzymes for cleaning rather than relying on perfumes or aggressive oxidisers, which means fewer potential triggers for reactive skin and airways. While the formula is designed to suit most sensitive users, individual conditions vary. A patch test on an internal seam is sensible for highly reactive skin, and people with severe or medically managed allergies should consult a healthcare professional before introducing any new product.
