Definitely agree with Momtoc on the vinegar... a nice essential oil to also add in is lavender... it calms them and helps them sleep a bit better too...

And the Purity Laundry Detergent is wonderful for babies with eczema... my little one also had no adverse to reaction to it and she also suffers horribly from eczema.

You can take the green sunlight bar soap, grate it and pour 5l of boiling water over it, let it stand overnight until it forms a type of hard gel.

Instead of stasoft, use a quarter to a cup of white vinegar depending on load. You can also add any type of essential oil with the vinegar for a nice fragrance. NOT that the clothes smell like vinegar or anything hahaha
You can use lavender, vanilla(prefer that for baby clothes) etc.

I use this for our clothes as well. Works like a charm and much cheaper as well!

Hi there,

My LG has eczema and the only thing that we've ever washed her clothes and bedding with is the Elizabeth Annes / Pampers baby liquid wash. (Link hereunder). She has never had any reaction from this and it is delicate on her clothes and has no residue left over.

Hi Dear

Congratulations! I was advised to use the plain water as the items have not being used, this is to avoid any reaction of the soap or softners on the baby's skin, baby's skin is very sensitive and some have eczema so best you use plain water to avoid skin discomfort for your little one. Then from then on, look for the lightest detergent, and hand wash is best.

All the best
