While doing cloth diapers, we use Country Save for everything. Both DH and DS have sensitive skin and they are equally good in that respect, but I think the country save is a little 'cleaner' probably. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/laundry-detergent-for-sensitive-skin#post-1469470 Wed, 05 Mar 2014 12:20:58 +0000 mrswin 1469470@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Bao: I have had really good luck with the Costco brand Free and Clear which is pretty reasonably priced as well as the Sunlight which is more expensive but I love. I just tried ALL but I have been super itchy :sad: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/laundry-detergent-for-sensitive-skin#post-1469298 Wed, 05 Mar 2014 11:46:57 +0000 rattles 1469298@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We use All F&amp;C or Arm &amp; Hammer dye/perfume free, and I think the latter works better.. I've never tried Tide because both my brother and grandmother were allergic to it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/laundry-detergent-for-sensitive-skin#post-1469277 Wed, 05 Mar 2014 11:41:50 +0000 septca 1469277@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Happygal: I have an LG front-loader that has a slot for fabric softener - I just fill that to the "max" line with white vinegar. It's maybe 1/4 cup? It *really* works (and is sooooo cheap). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/laundry-detergent-for-sensitive-skin#post-1469012 Wed, 05 Mar 2014 10:27:18 +0000 HLK208 1469012@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ecos.

How much vinegar do you use for a large load? I don't use any fabric softener at all right now, but it would be nice to have something to help out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/laundry-detergent-for-sensitive-skin#post-1468974 Wed, 05 Mar 2014 10:16:32 +0000 mamimami 1468974@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Zote!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/laundry-detergent-for-sensitive-skin#post-1468967 Wed, 05 Mar 2014 10:14:30 +0000 avivoca 1468967@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm using Ecos Free and Clear now and really like it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/laundry-detergent-for-sensitive-skin#post-1468964 Wed, 05 Mar 2014 10:13:14 +0000 cascademom 1468964@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use Tide Free &amp; Clear for DH and I. DH has sensitive skin. Ever since we moved in together, I've been washing our clothes with it. For LO, I use the Up &amp; Up version of Dreft. I may switch him to our detergent eventually, but baby detergent smells good and seems to get rid of the stains better. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/laundry-detergent-for-sensitive-skin#post-1468956 Wed, 05 Mar 2014 10:10:52 +0000 Mrs. Bee 1468956@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>try soap nuts! completely hypoallergenic. they don't get stains out as well though i found, so i use charlie's soap. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/laundry-detergent-for-sensitive-skin#post-1468949 Wed, 05 Mar 2014 10:08:54 +0000 creativemomma15 1468949@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We use the target brand free &amp; clear but I am looking into making my own to save some money and be more natural </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/laundry-detergent-for-sensitive-skin#post-1468935 Wed, 05 Mar 2014 10:05:52 +0000 JerricaBenton 1468935@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use ecos for lo.

In fact, I was out of one of the ingredients the other day so I bought some All F&amp;C and I was *not* impressed... it did not work nearly as well as my homemade detergent.</p> <p>This is what I use:<br /> 1 bar Dr. Bronner's soap (I usually use almond, but they have a baby/scent-free formula as well), grated on the finest grater setting<br /> +<br /> 1 cup Arm &amp; Hammer super washing soda<br /> +<br /> 1 cup OxyClean Free</p> <p>Use 2 T. per load - that recipe makes about 35 loads worth. I store it in a quart-sized mason jar and use an old coffee spoon as a scoop.</p> <p>I also use plain white vinegar instead of fabric softener and wool dryer balls - all of these things have really helped cut down on the chemincals in our laundry and skin issues in our house, </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/laundry-detergent-for-sensitive-skin#post-1466461 Tue, 04 Mar 2014 12:53:33 +0000 Bao 1466461@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@T.H.O.U.: I have thought about it and maybe I could do that in a few months.
