All detergents work on the same principles: Break up oils and dirt and wash them away.

The main differences are in the pH, presence or absence of bleach, and the types of surfactants — long molecules that are water-loving at one end and oil-loving at the other. “Surfactants are active ingredients we put in cleaning products that bridge the gap between water and greasy dirt and help wash it away,”

Automatic dishwasher detergents use a brute force approach that is effective but far too harsh for skin, breaking down stains and food with high pH and chlorine bleach.

Laundry products are somewhere in between — tougher than hand dish washing products but gentle enough for fabrics and dyes. Traditional powdered versions are closer to automatic dishwasher detergents and use higher pH to clean, while the newer liquid detergents are closer to neutral pH and rely more on surfactants that are less susceptible to water hardness, enzymes to break down proteins, starches and fats, and water-soluble polymers to help disperse dirt and oils.

Why must suits be dry cleaned only?

Suits are more likely to be made out of materials, such as wool, which require dry cleaning. It's the fabric or embellishment on the fabric that could be damaged in the wash. In terms of suits, most nice ones are made out of wool. You can't wash wool in a washing machine because it'll shrink and felt, rendering the suit unwearable. You can wash wool things at home, but you need Woolite and a lot of time.

There are several different reasons that something might be labeled "Dry Clean Only". Most animal fibers like wool and silk will felt, shrink, or weaken if exposed to heat and agitation (like in a washing machine).

Pro tip: You do not need to dry-clean your suits unless they smell. Spot clean with mild soap and water to remove visible stains and air dry.

Travel Lightly: Our 5 Best Packing Tips

I love traveling. In fact, I love it so much that I've often got my luggage out and open and waiting days before the actual packing needs to be done. But, as much as I love packing, I hate having a lot of luggage. Even in the days before baggage check fees, I rarely checked luggage. Here are my best tips on how to pack lightly and still look good when you get there.

• You do not need to wear something different everyday, you do need to be comfortable and appropriate: With that in mind, I use a packing formula: 3 bottoms for 1 week, 3 tops per bottom, 5 bottoms for 2 weeks, deduct 1 top and 1 bottom for each dress. • If you are going sightseeing or to a city, always, even in the heat of the summer, bring a cardigan (women) or a dinner jacket (men). Not every place in the world is as informal as the States. • Unless you are going to Antarctica or camping, there will be stores where you are going and you can always get what you need or forgot there. Apart from contact lenses or prescription medicine, you will be able to buy it at your destination. And, if you're in a foreign country, the replacement product will likely be more interesting than what you're used to. • Forget the pack flat or roll debate. Bundling is best: I used to roll my clothes until Gregory discovered this method. Not only is it a space saver, it is genius at keeping your clothes from wrinkling. • Pack one space saver bag: Just in case you buy a lot while you're away, the space bag may help you avoid having to buy an extra piece of luggage to bring it all back in.

Can I use normal detergent in my top loading washing machine?

Not really, because regular detergents are not meant to be used with washing machines. You should always use the detergent recommended by the manufacturer.

Let me give brief idea on Washing Machine first. While buying a washing machine, we always try to buy the best that we can. Most modern washing machines are trying to improve their technology to use less water and less energy. And just because they use less water, it becomes important to choose the right detergent that can work in less water.

Traditional detergents (especially those that are used for bucket washing) generate a lot of suds (froth, bubbles or foam). A high amount of suds prevent proper cleaning with most modern washing machines. So you may feel that cloths are not washed properly in shorter cycles and you may opt for longer wash cycles, there by increasing the amount of electricity used for washing. Or you may have to clean them manually. That is why if you go to the market to buy a detergent you will find detergents marked for washing machines.

Most detergent makers mark detergents for washing machines as “MATIC”. A top-load washing machine with “agitator” needs more water than a front-load washing machine that works more on “tumble” action. Thus there are different detergents for top-load and front-load washing machines.
