MamaSuds was founded by Michelle C. Smith. She created the company after struggling to find a laundry product that could clean her daughter’s cloth diapers without leaving behind residues that contributed to irritation. Her search for a simpler alternative became the foundation for MamaSuds.

MamaSuds states that each product is handmade in Goodrich, Michigan, USA. The company describes its products as being made in small batches and identifies itself as a woman-owned small business located in Michigan.

One of the brand’s signature products is its Laundry Detergent Soap, made from water, saponified olive oil Castile soap, sodium carbonate, and sodium tetraborate. MamaSuds says the low-sudsing formula works in both conventional and high-efficiency washing machines and was originally developed with cloth diapers in mind.

MamaSuds offers products across laundry, kitchen, bathroom, household cleaning, and body care, including laundry soap and powder, stain sticks, oxygen powder, dishwasher powder, all-purpose cleaners, Toilet Bomb Cleaning Tabs, Castile Liquid Soap, hand soap, body wash, bar soap, and related household essentials.

MamaSuds says yes. In fact, the Laundry Soap was originally created specifically for cloth diapers. The company describes its formula as residue-free and suitable for babies and sensitive skin when used as directed.

MamaSuds describes its collection as vegan and cruelty-free and states that it is Leaping Bunny Certified. The brand also says its products are coconut- and palm-free and requires its ingredient suppliers not to test on animals.
