Put it on your hand first and apply it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-burts-bees-talc-free-powder-safe#post-2086639 Thu, 26 Feb 2015 12:07:58 +0000 sorrycharlie 2086639@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsMccarthy: oh derp! hahaha. sleep deprivation. i use as a hand lotion lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-burts-bees-talc-free-powder-safe#post-2086635 Thu, 26 Feb 2015 12:06:06 +0000 MrsMccarthy 2086635@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sorrycharlie: I have the cream!

They use arrowroot powder, which is less allergenic than cornstarch </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-burts-bees-talc-free-powder-safe#post-2086608 Thu, 26 Feb 2015 11:56:03 +0000 LuLu Mom 2086608@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't know about that specific brand, but we've never used any form of powder due to our allergist telling us it can cause asthma symptoms, and with DD's esophagus issues we weren't going to risk it. I have like 2 full things that just sit in our cupboard, I won't use on #2 either. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-burts-bees-talc-free-powder-safe#post-2086597 Thu, 26 Feb 2015 11:50:39 +0000 MrsMccarthy 2086597@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm so confused because I thought talc free was all I needed but the internets seem mixed. My son and I have been inhaling a lot of this powder lately because he has had some rashes and I'm starting to wonder if its okay or if I should lay off the stuff. What's your experience and knowledge on here? </p>
