Vanish those pesky stains & giveaway

Hey lovelies


Anyone who knows me knows I absolutely HATE washing more than you can ever imagine with an active toddler and a husband who works in what I can only assume to be a room filled with dirt as he comes home covered in black dirt every day. 
You would think my issue would be with my daughters clothing and although she does give me her fair share of pesky cloth stains from food and god knows what else, my really stain issue lies with my husband. No matter how much he washes he always ruined our bedsheets, the worse affected has to be his pillow. 


Until now I have actually resorted to throwing out his pillow cases and giving him cheap ones that don't match the bed set.

Vanish has challenged me to see if I can save my sheets, I was so sceptical to be honest and didn't have much hope. But I figured what the hell. I put on our bed a pretty set and even allows my husband a matching pillow case ( I can say I was pretty worried I would end up with one going in the bin). 


So I left him with his pillow for 3 days, when I went to check the damage my heart sunk a little.

I can honestly I just popped them in the wash and they came out the same the top is before wash and the second of is after a standard wash. 


OK so I grabbed the vanish products I was sent to give a try. 
If I'm completely honest i used all of them on the pillow case...

Vanish power stain

This is the vanish gold power gel ore treatment stain remover it has a roller head for easy application. So I smothered the pillow case in this before moving onto the next product. 


Vanish power stain


This is the fabric stain remover - spray on leave for 5 minutes and pop in the wash. And yes I used this as well haha. 


Vanish power stain
Gel fabric stain remover this is like multi purpose , you can pre-treat direct to the stain, soak or pop a capful in the wash. 
I opted to put a capful in the wash

Lastly I used the vanish power shot they are gel pods you pop into the wash. 


I am complete over the moon with the result it's like I have a brand new looking super stain free pillow case!! 




Now I understand I used all 4 but I am pretty sure using one or two of the products together would give the same result.
