Nellie's Dish Powder easily penetrates grease, food particles & more, leaving every plate spotless! So spotless, that she might even stay for dinner! Sorry about that.

Our Dish Powder is biodegradable, septic safe, and phosphate-free. Above all, this powder is a plant-based formula and kind to the environment. So, the only gross stuff going down the drain will come from your plates! What's not to love about doing dishes!

WHY POWDER? Liquid detergents are made up largely of water. At Nellie's we don't think selling and moving water around the planet is a very good idea. The fact is, more cleaning power can be packed into a smaller space using powder.

Any questions?

Are your refill products as effective as conventional cleaners?

Yes, effectiveness is one of the main criteria we use when selecting refill brands.

We carefully curate products that clean just as well as conventional options, but with better ingredients and less wasteful packaging. If something doesn’t perform well in real homes, it doesn’t make it onto our shelves.

Is switching to refills complicated?

Not at all! It’s actually simpler than most people expect.

You start with a reusable bottle, then refill it whenever it’s empty instead of buying a new plastic container each time.

Many customers quickly turn it into a routine — refilling their cleaning and personal care products just like they would restock groceries. Plus, many customers find their products last longer due to concentrated formulas.

What ingredients do your products use — and what do they avoid?

We curate brands that prioritize naturally derived, biodegradable ingredients that are safe for everyday home use. Our role is to do the research and testing for you, so you can shop with confidence.

Every product we carry is reviewed against our ingredient and sustainability standards. We look closely at things like formulation transparency, environmental impact, and packaging. The products we carry avoid ingredients such as:

• SLS / SLES
• Synthetic fragrance
• Parabens
• Harsh chemical fillers

What if I try a product and it doesn’t work for me?

Because we curate many different brands, we can usually recommend an alternative that better fits your needs.

Our team is always happy to help you find the right product for your home, whether that’s a different scent, formula, or brand.

We want you to feel confident that what you’re bringing home will actually work for you.
