A: All of our products have been tested to be safe when used as directed. However, there is a scent to this detergent.

A: There are no animal by-products in our laundry detergents or scent boosters. We do not test our products on animals anywhere in the world unless required by law and we are working hard to make animal testing of all consumer products obsolete. We are a proud supporter of #BeCrueltyFree. We have invested more than $470 million in developing non-animal testing methods and have advocated for their approval by policy makers around the world. Today, we use more than 50 non-animal alternatives, half of which were invented or co-invented by P&G. We will continue working with partners like the Humane Society International and the People for Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) to promote the development of new alternatives and advocate for their public use and adoption to eliminate animal testing.

A: Gain Liquids and Powders are formulated to provide ideal cleaning and freshness in any type of machine, so it is safe for whatever machine you own.

A: We haven't made any recent changes to the formula, so you should see the same consistency that you're used to. However, if the liquid was stored in somewhere extremely hot (such as a hot car, or in direct sunlight), it may cause the liquid to become thin. It should return to it's normal thickness at room temperature, and work just fine. If there's anything we can do to help further, you can always give us a call directly at (800) 888-4246.

A: It sure does! Be sure to check the care tag on your clothes to determine what temperature water you should use.

A: Rest assured that Gain is safe for septic systems, Lily!
