IF you've always put your washing powder in your washing machine drawer, then you're about to have your mind blown.
The 25-year-old UK resident said in the caption of her video: "Shocked at how many people did not know this."
Demonstrating the "correct" method, she claims that putting the powder in the drawer clogs your machine and could very damage it over time.
Instead, she insists that putting washing powder straight in the drum with your clothes will give you a nice foamy wash.
She also claims it "smells so much stronger" and will leave your clothes feeling and smelling fresher for longer.
We did a little digging ourselves and it seems there's quite a debate on the topic.
It's true some washing powders can clog up and remain in the drawer, which is why it's best to clean it often rather than avoid using it altogether.
The drawer is actually designed for the washing powder and liquid detergent so you shouldn't have an issue using it all.
According to the site White Goods Help, popping the powder into the drum is a good solution if it doesn't dissolve properly in the drawer.
However, the site did warn not to overload your machine, saying "This is because detergent may get trapped inside laundry and be unable to disburse properly."
Adding: "That can not only prevent proper washing, but it also causes a potential safety issue."

What's more, laundry brand Persil states on their site that washing powder can be applied to the drum so long as it's in a "mesh bag" which will "help it dissolve quicker".
You can pick up bags for this purpose in the laundry aisle of some supermarkets which can be added to the machine before your clothes.
But it's worth nothing that no two laundry products are created equal.
For this reason, it's best to check the instructions on your detergent first to make sure it can be used this way.
