Lately I have been making "laundry-lists" rather than shopping-lists. Every time I make a run for errands, I bring my camera with me and document the packaging for every laundry detergent I can find.
I have come across some brands that we see in the United States, but also some container shapes that I haven't seen before. An interesting fact about doing laundry in Europe compared to the US is that Europe has many more setting options for washing clothes. You can choose from 4-5 different temperatures, and several types of wash cycles as well. You also have about 6 different dyer settings. Europeans think very highly in regards to saving energy and going green.

| Of course, the packing is in Dutch, but I am not so bad at reading labels any more! |
 |
| Robijn detergent in liquid form as opposed to powder |
 |
| Generic brand detergent - quite simple |
 |
| Again, generic, but this time for colors. The color choices are rather odd for the generic brands considering what the detergents are used for. |
 |
| All sorts of different packaging. This is the type I have in my dorm. A lid on the top is used to measure the detergent. I got it for free but I hate the mess it makes! |
 |
| This one looks familiar... |
 |
| Another familiar face! |
 |
| Crystals: an interesting concept. Kind of reminds me of dishwasher detergent. |
