How do I use Downy Cool Cotton Scent Beads?

Simply measure the desired amount of in-wash scent booster beads in the provided cap, and then toss the beads into your washing machine drum before adding clothes.

I really love the Cool Cotton scent. How can I get even more?

Downy Cool Cotton is available in liquid fabric softener, dryer sheets, and in-wash scent booster beads. Use all three for the absolute best scent experience.

Do I need to use detergent with Downy Cool Cotton Scent Beads?

Yes. Use beads WITH laundry detergent. Downy Cool Cotton In-Wash Scent Booster Beads are for adding extra touch-activated scent to your clothes and fabrics, not for cleaning.

If I use in-wash scent booster beads, do I need liquid fabric softener?

For best results—yes! In-wash scent booster beads are designed to add even more of the touch-activated scent you love to your fabrics. Liquid fabric softener infuses clothes with touch-activated scent, as well as protects your clothes from stretching, fading, and fuzz.

If I use in-wash scent booster beads, do I need to use dryer sheets?

Of course! Both in-wash scent booster beads and dryer sheets infuse your clothes with a great, premium scent, but the beads have our new touch-activated technology, while dryer sheets fight static cling. It’s best to use both with every load of wash, resulting in wonderfully long-lasting scents and incredible softness.

Long lasting scent

Want a nice not over powering scent, then these booster beads are just it. They leave my laundry smelling so fresh and clean, and the scent lasts long after come out the dryer. They’re especially great for towels, blankets, and bedding because everything stays smelling fresh for days.
