Q: How many 1/2 cups do you get in the 5.7 oz package?

submitted by LindaH - 2 years ago

  • A: Because the "brand expert" refused to provide accurate information, allow me to help you out. There are 8 ounces in ONE cup. So half a cup has 4 ounces. Therefore, a 5.7 ounce oackai, which is also listed as a trial size, has 1 "serving" - the rest of the weight is probably packaging rather than product. Hope that helps.

    submitted bylow sodium diet - 2 years ago

  • A: We don't have a recommended dosage for our Scent Booster Beads, so you can add as much as you'd like to your wash. This makes it hard to determine how many doses you'll get from a container of our Downy Light Ocean Mist Scent Beads.

Q: Are these OK for front end loader washers?

submitted by Julie - 3 months ago

  • A: Hi Julie! Yes! Downy beads, including Light Ocean Mist, are designed to work great in both front-loading and top-loading machines, including HE washers. Just remember to add the beads directly into the drum before adding your clothes—not the detergent drawer.

    When they say "Light" they mean it. I've been using this product for a very long time and absolutely loved the scent. However, it seems lately they've lessened the amount of fragrance used in the beads. This scent used to be my favorite and now, there's barely a scent when my clothes come out of the wash. it's disappointing. I'll need to find a new product.

    Fresh and clean laundry scent

    I love the fresh, air scent of downy light ocean mist! It gives my clothes as clean ocean-inspired fragrance that feels light and refreshing without being too strong. It’s perfect for everyday laundry. Especially towels and bedding, because it leave everything smelling fresh and cozy. I enjoy how it adds an extra touch of freshness to my laundry routine and helps clothes smell amazing after washing.

    Just the right amount of freshness

    I am typically against any fragrance or additives in laundry, but I got a sample of these and figured I would give them a shot. I think they will definitely be a new laundry staple for me! They add the perfect amount of freshness, it’s not overpowering or highly fragranced. Especially with older clothes that never seem to smell fresh anymore, or gym clothes. Very easy to just pop a small amount in the bottom of the tub before starting laundry. I wash on the “eco warm” setting and they all dissolved completely, but I wonder if washing in cold water would be an issue.

    Can’t stop refilling, love this!

    So obsessed with these beaded boosters, I am someone who is sensitive to strong artificial smells. This is not that, so light and airy, and subtle breezy essence of water. Long lasting as well even days after a wash. Without any left over residue in the washer. I keep in stock regularly now.

    Long lasting freshness, clean scent with every wash.

    The scent of Ocean Mist leaves clothes feeling incredibly fresh from the first wash and lasts a long time. I appreciate that the instructions are simple and the product's concentration means a small amount is enough. Plus, it feels very safe to use in any load and truly enhances the freshness and effectiveness of daily laundry.

    Great for Bedding/Towels

    These are the BEST for sheets, bedding, and towels! The light and airy scent provides a fresh feeling when you smell it. Using these on my bedding makes my whole room smell amazing!! I do not use much per load, which allows the bottle to last a long time. I prefer the Downy scent beads to other brands- I find that these do not leave any residue or spots on laundry, unlike others I’ve used in the past. When using, I add my scent free detergent, add the scent beads to the water, then fill up the washer with my laundry. These are the best!

    My favorites

    These pearls have had a great impact on our lives, my family loves and enjoys putting on their clean clothes the smell left on the clothes by the durability of this, it is a harmony, it does not cause sensitivity in the skin or any injury the instructions are clear and precise it is a product that I simply cannot take out of my routine.
