I make my own laundry soap. They say its best for people with skin allergies to other store bought detergents. Its even safe and sensitive enough for kids & babies. Its also alot cheaper. Recipe below :)



LIQUID LAUNDRY SOAP

1 BAR OF SOAP (NO MOISTERIZERS, USE IVORY OR PURE SOAPS)
1 BOX OF BORAX
1 BOX OF SUPER WASHING SODA

BOIL 4 CUPS OF WATER

GRATE UR BAR OF SOAP INTO A BOWL. MELT SOAP ON STOVE IN POT. HEAT ON LOW UNTIL ALL SOAP IS MELTED.

ADD 2 CUPS OF BORAX AND 2 CUPS OF WASING SODA INTO A 5 GALLON BUCKET. ADD REALLY HOT WATER TO MIXTURE AND STIR UNTIL ALL POWDER IS
DISLOVED. THEN ADD THE MELTED SOAP TO THE BUCKET MIXTURE. ADD 4 GALLONS OF HOT WATER. GIVE THE ENITRE SOAP MIXTURE A GOOD STIR. COVER
THE BUCKET SOAP MIXTURE AND LET SET FOR A DAY. THEN STIR SOAP MIXTURE REALLY WELL CAUSE IT WILL GEL ON THE TOP. POUR INTO EMPTY LAUNDRY
SOAP JUG. USE A HALF OF CUP FOR A LOAD OF LAUNDRY.

I've had good luck with the ALL free, I am currently using dreft as we got it as a baby shower presant, I've also used another one (not sure of the name as it is at my MIL) I still have so much to wash, and what seems to be so little time! I think I am going to have to go to the laundry mat to finish up her clothes. I have a body pillow case full to the tippie top!

I have used the "all baby" brand and also the "purex baby" brand they seem to work really well and are way less expensive than dreft... Give a try it is more about what you prefer and what works for your baby than anything else... Hope this helps... TTYL... Joy

if your worried about the chemicals being too harsh put white vinegar in the rinse cycle and it will even out the Ph
