What Does Laundry Softener Do?
Laundry softener is an additive used in the laundry to make clothes feel soft and fluffy after washing. It works by coating the surface of the fabric fibers with a layer of chemicals that reduces static cling and makes the fibers feel smoother to the touch. It also helps to reduce wrinkles and make clothes smell fresh. However, excessive use of laundry softener can damage fabrics over time and cause skin irritation in some people, especially those with sensitive skin.
