I find this also helps cut down starch dandruff. I started using niagara or faultless, but got some Best Press and it's just lovely and has no dandruff. But it's pricey, so when it comes time to buy new I have to decide how lovely I need my starch to be.
being able to withstand my impatience for the starch to dry is worth the cost for me. Otherwise I might actually have to wait .. ***shudder*** I like the lavender scented one, cause then my work smells like a pretty linen closet. Just makes me feel all girly and such
