Prior to being selected to review Clean sensitive washing powder, I had been given a bottle of Soften oriental kiss by my mother in law. I have been known to stand in the aisle and select my fabric softener based on fragrance- so it's safe to say that I'm fairly picky about the scents that I choose. As you could imagine, the first thing I did upon receiving the bottle was open it and take a whiff. So far, so good, but would the fragrance remain on my clothes after they were dry? I have been known to 'break up' with softeners in the past because they failed to do this. Soften had big shoes to fill, and it delivered! My clothes came out smelling like roses! (actually more like oriental kiss, but you get what I mean ????).
The fragrance remained on the fabric, and my husband didn't complain that he smelt like a lady. When I found out the price, it was the icing on a very delicious smelling cake! I made sure this product made its way into my shopping list.

My husband has a couple of skin conditions and we have tried a dozen different products and the Soften Sensitive has been the best yet. His skin does not seem to react to this product. I would thoroughly recommend this range.

I love to use Fabric Softener for all my clothes, linen and towels but have been scrimping on some items because of the cost .... Soften is not only an effective product but a great cost saving too! At a fraction of the cost of other fabric softeners, it delivers big time! Cost savings, effectiveness and scent - it more than exceeds my expectations! I've finely found the perfect solution to my laundry needs!

I'm so glad to find Soften Island Oasis Fabric Softener. It has the best smell by far and stays in the fabrics. Towels smell wonderful and feel so soft.

After parking and getting back into the car I could smell the clothes. It made my car smell good too! Very easy to order using Woolworths online shopping. Gets delivered to your door

Soften really is the best brand of softener on the market. It is quite easy to make up - you just need a 2L bottle, and then also easy to use. I find that I don't use much of the product, so it probably reaches the 25 washes limit posted on the bottle. It leaves my clothes soft and smelling great. I am not a fan of the ocean blue smell, and prefer the sunny yellow one (name escapes me right now).

I switched to soften a year ago. I have always made up my softener, jut like my grandmother before me. I found that a lot of softeners on the market were quite expensive for what they offered. Soften on the other hand is inexpensive, and easy to make up. It leaves my clothes soft and smelling great. Would recommend.

Love the variety of clean products. There is such a great variety that it is all you need to fill the laundry. The freshness smell of each product and the ingredients with no harmful ingredients in each product. I found the smell was long lasting especially the fabric softener which made me feeling refreshed all day. The sheets on the bed are relaxing also.

When I first used this soften I was like ok let's see just give this a try I know it won't work. But I was wrong it did. It really soften my clothes in the first go and after that it is just a must buy product at least for me. It smells so good that after washing you will feel so fresh.

Ladies, stop wasting your money on Fabric Softeners
They don't work.
I bought this by mistake thinking it was "soft" detergent for delicates but decided to try it anyway. I feel nor smell no difference in my towels. Granted, I don't have a dryer and hang my towels in the sun so they will always go back to that crunchy feeling. White Vinegar is all you need. It does exactly the same thing as fabric softener. Cheaper. And probably nicer to the environment.

I never used to use fabric softener. To me it was just another unnecessary expense for something that didn't really do much.
I have been using the Soften Sensitive and am now sure to include it in every wash. For a sensitive product it still has a great smell, and I know that I can wash my family's clothes with Soften Sensitive and whether it's my partner, my teenagers or my 9 month old baby, everyone will have fresh, pleasant smelling and comfortable clothes without having to worry about reactions. Definitely a product I will continue to use.

I was pleasantly surprised by the results of Soften.
Given the price, you would not expect the best results. The fragrance is noticeable - though I wouldn't say it lasts as long as more expensive softeners.
Clothes did come out nice and soft.
Overall, great value for money and I'll be trying out different scents to find my favourite one! The pocket friendly price is definitely a winner.

How to choose the best lunch box for school
When you’re searching for a kids’ lunch box, take the time to work out what will best suit their needs. If you make the right choice and invest in a quality one, it will last many years.
Box, bento or bag? If your child doesn’t like different foods touching, a bento lunch box is a great choice. Also, think about whether they prefer cut-up or whole fruit; a bento is better suited to cut food, while bags and boxes suit whole fruit. Bags are fantastic if you like to pack separate containers, like smaller bento or snack containers.
Freshness is a must – An insulated bag or box will keep everything cool and fresh until snack and lunchtime. But you can also get boxes that come with cold and ice packs. Remember, kids’ lunches often sit at room temperature for up to 5 or 6 hours before they’re eaten, so insulation and coolness are important. Check out how to keep school lunches safe in the heat.
Easy-to-clean design – Check if the box is dishwasher-safe, or for lunch bags, if they’re machine-washable.
Leak-proof – The last thing you want is a soggy mess at lunchtime, so if buying a hard lunch box, look for designs that are leak-proof with proper seals.
Child-friendly – Depending on your child’s motor skills and independence, you may need to start with a product that’s simple to open and close.
The right size – We tend to pack way too much in our kids’ lunches, so think about how much realistically you’ll need to pack for your child when choosing the size of their lunch box. You may also need to consider the size of their school bags.

After something a bit more mature? Bentgo’s Modern lunch boxes are a great option. They have a sleek matte finish in a choice of four stylish shades, including Mint Green, Orchid, Dark Grey and Navy. Each is cleverly designed with a removable divider that allows you to choose between using three or four compartments.

Finally, a kids’ lunch box that stores hot AND cold food in one place! Designed out of necessity by a problem-solving mum, the OmieBox encourages low-waste lunches and ends the need to use multiple clunky containers (which always get lost!). The spill-proof individual compartments mean no mixing of savoury and sweet, and the 280ml double-wall thermos keeps soups and pasta hot for up to six hours!
Health professionals agree that kids need a good balance of lean protein, grains, fruit and vegetables throughout the school day. Skip the processed food and try to reach for whole foods that pack a punch in the nutrient department. Here are some great ideas:
Grilled chicken or turkey wraps with fresh salad
Crackers and vegetable sticks with healthy dips like hummus
Whole-grain pasta with cherry tomatoes and your choice of cheese
Zucchini slice cut into rectangles for easy stacking in an insulated box
That lunchbox comparison table is handy to have. It helped me make a decision on which lunchbox to buy next for my daughter who is starting kindergarten. I needed to upgrade her lunchbox but wasn’t sure which way to go. The table helped me with my decision. I ended up going with the BBOX and have found a cheaper lunch bag from a department store that it fits in.
I do not know if anyone else has picked up on this or not, but every bag mentioned in the table above is a ‘designer’ brand. There are plenty of more affordable options that aren’t over $40. I have never spent that much on a lunchbox – even from Smiggle. The cheaper brands last just as well too.
Getting ready for the return to school has started to kick in so this was a timely read. We have the yum box and i love it, it is so easy for my daughter to open and close on her own. I find the lunch cooler bags also a great idea however some days depending on what else needs to go to school, they can be quite bulky to include in the school bag. I need to do some more research this year as i like the idea of being able to watch it in the washing machine, that is a clever idea.
Along with all of the other back to school products; there is also a good range of lunch boxes available for people to buy. It has been fun to see the wide range of bottles and lunch boxes that are available for the new year for school and for work.
Lunch boxes have come such a long way since my eldest was a kid, he’s now 26! There’s really a solution to everything from food heating, cooling, dividers, pockets etc etc. Lunch boxes are a real fashion accessory and so on-trend these days. I personally love the Bento lunch boxes. They save on plastic and separate different foods.
I am such a huge fan of Bento lunch boxes and Bento. Food should be so many wonderful things; including delicious, fun, colourful and nutritious too. Lunch is a favourite meal because the body is ready for some more calories and a boost of energy. Food looks so good in Bento lunch boxes.
So so many fantastic options! We use the montii co ones for our kdis and swear by it. Its lasted 3 years so far and still standing strong, like new since the first day using it. They are so durable and i find cleaning them to be the easiest for us.
There are so many great lunch box option out there indeed ! I’ve always liked the Bento style lunch boxes for my kids. It reduces the use of plastic lunch bags and packaged food which aren’t very good for the environment and it encourages to present a good variety of foods (which is not only better nutrition wise but lao to prevent our kids from getting bored with same foods all the time.
There are some really fabulous options here. So many variations of colour, shape and size. I love the bento style lunch boxes, so handy to keep food separate and eliminate the use of plastic packaging. The machine washable bags are a great idea too. They can get grubby so fast, this would be so much easier to maintain
This has gotten much easier since my kids hit high school – they have strong opinions about their lunch boxes, so I don’t have to think about it so much anymore! However, I am strongly in favor of bento style boxes regardless of their age. They’re easy to clean, easy to pack, and invite appropriate sized portions.
Great article! Our kids are so lucky, when it comes to lunchboxes, they really are spoilt for choice. There are so many to pick from. Regarding sandwiches, my eldest son, used to hate sandwiches for school lunches. It wasn’t until many years later that I discovered that he’d throw out his sandwiches in the playground bins. My son’s an adult now and he still hates sandwiches. He only likes “hot” lunches. So glad he lives on his own now and can make his own “hot” lunches just the way he likes them.
This is an extremely useful article!! 2 schppl going kids and third starting kinder soon means we are always on the lookout for lunch ideas and lunch boxes. This is a great list with features and prices listed to make the search easier and help with decision making for purchasing of the lunch boxes
This is super useful article and thank you. I can see so variety of lunch boxes from every store. Always wonder which one would be more convenient to use by little hands. I love some of these lunchboxes to give it a try for this year. And then decide to go with suitable ones
Wow, lunch boxes have really come such a long way from when I was taking a lunch box to school. Feel old, like “back in my day”, but we were lucky to have options like are available now. While I like some of these designs, I feel like they aren’t super practical.
These lunchboxes are beautiful but are they really worth the expensive price tag? I have been through so many lunch boxes and bags over the years and found the best it to use an insulated lunchbox bag with ice brick and use small containers to keep individual items fresh and assessable.
I love the bbox lunch boxes. They are so reliable and tough when kids throw their bags around. Easy to wash and store. I have used the we can be tiny snackies at home too. The boys love choosing a certain animal shape. They wash well, are durable and great quality.
My kids are old enough now to pack their own lunches and I am so happy to see the great choices they are making. They take left over meals, cook food in the morning to take and now I am confident they aren’t throwing away sandwiches! I do have the chilly bags for them, I find they fit better into bags
My daughter uses a bento box now for work and sometimes an insulated bag in summer, but when she was at school it was a rectangular lunch box with no compartments. It was very easy to wash each day, just the box and lid, and it could still be filled with rolls/sandwiches and snacks.
Lunchboxes are so important these days. Back in my day it was a brown paper bag or the exact same lunch box that everyone else had and there were three compartments. Today its such a fashion statement and as much as the lunchbox itself is judged so are the contents.

Love that my clothes smelt like an Oriental Kiss!
The fragrance remained on the fabric, and my husband didn't complain that he smelt like a lady. When I found out the price, it was the icing on a very delicious smelling cake! I made sure this product made its way into my shopping list.

Ladies, stop wasting your money on Fabric Softeners
I bought this by mistake thinking it was "soft" detergent for delicates but decided to try it anyway. I feel nor smell no difference in my towels. Granted, I don't have a dryer and hang my towels in the sun so they will always go back to that crunchy feeling. White Vinegar is all you need. It does exactly the same thing as fabric softener. Cheaper. And probably nicer to the environment.

Worth the money
I have been using the Soften Sensitive and am now sure to include it in every wash. For a sensitive product it still has a great smell, and I know that I can wash my family's clothes with Soften Sensitive and whether it's my partner, my teenagers or my 9 month old baby, everyone will have fresh, pleasant smelling and comfortable clothes without having to worry about reactions. Definitely a product I will continue to use.

Softness is the word

Great value for money
Given the price, you would not expect the best results. The fragrance is noticeable - though I wouldn't say it lasts as long as more expensive softeners.
Clothes did come out nice and soft.
Overall, great value for money and I'll be trying out different scents to find my favourite one! The pocket friendly price is definitely a winner.

Very impressed
I am very happy with this fabric softener as I have sensitive skin and have to be careful what I use. But this product is fantastic and leaves clothes smelling nice and feeling soft
