How to Use
Shake a small or large amount of beads into the cap, then toss them directly into the empty washer drum before loading your clothes and adding your regular detergent. Do not put the beads in the liquid dispenser or the dryer. Keep the bottle out of reach of children, avoid ingesting the beads, and flush eyes with water if they make contact.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I use Downy Unstopables in my washer?
Shake the beads into the bottle's cap, then toss them directly into the empty washer drum before adding your clothes and detergent. Do not add the beads to the fabric softener or detergent dispenser. You can adjust how much you use each time depending on how strong you want the scent to be.
Is Downy Unstopables safe for HE washing machines?
Yes, the label states this scent booster is safe for all types of washing machines, including HE front-load and top-load models. As with any in-wash product, add it directly to the drum rather than the dispenser drawer, following the same placement instructions listed on the bottle.
Can I use Downy Unstopables with fabric softener?
Yes, Downy Unstopables is a scent booster rather than a fabric softener, so it can be used together with a liquid softener or dryer sheets. It is designed to layer on top of your existing laundry routine for extra fragrance rather than to replace either your detergent or your softener.
What is the difference between Downy Unstopables and Downy Ultimate Fusions?
Downy Unstopables uses single-color beads carrying one signature fragrance per bottle, such as this Fresh scent. Downy Ultimate Fusions instead combines two different bead types in one bottle for a more layered fragrance. Both product lines are added directly to the washer drum before clothes and work alongside any detergent.
