It’s hypoallergenic, super gentle !
I recently found out that my son’s allergy was actually caused by our regular laundry detergent. Even though he’s 8 years old, I decided to try this Dreft Newborn detergent — and the allergy problem completely went away! It’s hypoallergenic, super gentle on the skin, and has such a light, pleasant scent. Definitely a great choice for sensitive skin! 💕🧺

Overpriced and scented
I purchased this the moment we found out we were expecting our baby boy to start washing all of the different baby clothes, cloth, toys, blankets, and towels that we were given. It works great, but for the price is extremely expensive and you can get the same quality and gentle care from less expensive brands. It also has a slight scent to it, which concerns me with a baby sensitive skin. Overall, it’s not a terrible product but not one I would purchase again knowing that there’s other brands with better prices and can be used for the whole family instead of targeting just baby clothes that is just as gentle if not more so.

Value and effectiveness
This is detergent is super awesome for newborns and it’s not harsh on their skin or the fabric of their clothing. I brought it for my granddaughter who had her first baby and my first great granddaughter. The price is great and the packaging is safe.

Yikes
I usually love this detergent. But something was maybe off with this batch.. I did a load of my babies clothes and when they came out of the dryer they had stains (grease like stains) not sure. But I’m really sad about it. Luckily I was refunded for it but my babies clothes are ruined.

We're so very sorry to hear about this, Jessica. This can happen if the detergent comes into direct contact with the clothes. We'd love to connect about this and assist you with removing this. Please call us at (800) 436-2229.

Perfect for sensitive skin
This detergent gets my babies clothes clean while leaving a good scent. These are small containers and I thought I would go through them fast but my baby is 4 months old and I just finished one bottle. My baby has had no issues with this as far as skin sensitivities. I have even started using it on our bedding. My boyfriend was having a reaction to our detergent especially while in bed he would get itchy. Once I started using this his itching has stopped

Saves from clothes discoloration & gentle on fabrics
I use this for washing my dresses in cold water. Gets stains out plus doesn’t lose color like harsher detergents. My kids clothes always look brand new. You can use at any water temperature. My kids are grown now & also buy adrede to wash their clothes. I’ve been using this for at least 15 years.

Be more family oriented, and have the decency to make this item affordable for all ..rich or poor. That’s my sincere advise to Target!!
One of the best cleaning for babies..I continue to use it even with my children not being babies anymore..but toddlers. The price should be lower especially since is a necessity for the mam’s and babies!! Be more family oriented, and have the decency to make this item affordable for all ..rich or poor. That’s my sincere advise to Target!!

Great for sensitive skin
This detergent is perfect for my babies’ sensitive skin! My twins were born premature so choosing a detergent was extra important for their sensitive skin. I had previously decided on dreft already but was extra nervous when I brought my premature babies home from the hospital. Dreft did not bother their sensitive skin at all which brought great relief to this first time mom. The twins later developed eczema so over 2 years later we are still using dreft!

Pleasant smell
I've been using Drift detergent for my baby clothes and really enjoy its pleasant, fresh scent—it leaves my baby laundry smelling clean and fresh. Additionally, it does a great job at cleaning clothes thoroughly, which is a big plus. However, I did notice that after a while, my baby developed a skin rash, which made me concerned about the detergent's suitability for sensitive skin. While I appreciate its cleaning power and fragrance, I would recommend being cautious if you have a baby or someone with sensitive skin. It might be worth trying a hypoallergenic or gentle alternative if you notice any skin sensitivities.

Loved This Soap for Our Infant!
We absolutely loved this soap and used it diligently when our child was under 1 year old. It kept her clothes smelling wonderful and helped prevent any skin breakouts. Although we no longer use it, it was perfect for that stage of life!

Use for babies or adults with sensitive skin!
I have very very sensitive skin. Detergent is where I start my self care routine because I’m allergic to so many detergents that I am strategic about what I use. Dreftbis what I used for my babies when they were younger. Now grown up teens who are working on moving out. I’m still using Dreft on our laundry. I can wash anything in it. I don’t have to worry about breaking out into hives or a rash or anything. I can wash all of my clothes from underwear to jeans in it-that’s very convenient. I usually wash towels with a little fabric softener once a month and wash my underwear in a scent free detergent. Dreft takes care of all of the laundry.

Can’t stop smelling my baby
I absolutely love the smell of Dreft Stage 1 Newborn Detergent! It has that iconic baby scent that’s clean, soft, and comforting without being overpowering. Every time I fold my newborn’s clothes, blankets, or even wash cloths, the gentle fragrance makes me feel calm and cozy—it truly adds to the sweet experience of caring for a new baby. The scent lasts just long enough to enjoy it, without lingering too much or irritating sensitive skin. It gives that fresh, baby-clean smell that’s hard to describe but instantly recognizable. It’s now one of those smells I’ll forever associate with these precious early days. Highly recommend if you want a detergent that smells amazing while still being gentle and safe for newborn skin.
