Wishing Well was recognized for its ultra-concentrated laundry detergent that pairs powerful cleaning performance with fine fragrance-inspired scents and non-toxic, sensitive-skin-friendly ingredients. Packaged in a sleek aluminum bottle, Boyfriend Material transforms an everyday household essential into a product consumers are proud to display.
“We created Wishing Well because we believed laundry products should care for your clothes, your skin, and the environment all at once,” said co-founder Sarah Pellicci Salveson. “Being recognized by HGTV reinforces that consumers no longer have to choose between clean ingredients, beautiful design, and powerful cleaning performance.”
Founded by best friends Sarah Pellicci Salveson and Samantha Freres, Wishing Well launched with a simple ethos: Laundry isn’t just household care—it’s self-care. The brand’s ultra-concentrated formula is free of harsh chemicals yet tough on stains and odors. Its sleek aluminum pump bottle reduces plastic waste and eliminates the mess of traditional detergent jugs.
“Our goal was to create a laundry detergent that people actually look forward to using,” said co-founder Samantha Freres. “From the formula to the fragrance to the packaging, every detail was designed to elevate the everyday laundry experience.”
Wishing Well’s Boyfriend Material Laundry Detergent delivers 74 loads per bottle for $26.99, offering premium performance at a competitive per-load price.
