      I have written about this in other places but no one really cares or they believe that they are somehow unique and exempted or they have loads of disposable income. When you use dryer sheets or a fabric softener, it uses silicone. Even the manufacturers are getting into the game and adding silicone based products during manufacture.

      Silicone's main property is that it repels water. That means that your towels, cleaning cloths, etc. will not soak up and dry your body, dishes or floors. The more silicone used, the less ability to absorb any water. Also, silicone speeds up the destruction of the item up to and including loss of item's color retention.

      The other overlooked fact is that you should never machine wash or machine dry any item with spandex or elastic as it ruins the item. Always handwash and hang to dry or dry clean any socks, underwear or any items such as a workout or dressier clothing having elastic or spandex, always read the labels unless you have that disposable income and so you don't care how an item looks or holds up.
