in Old style MoneySaving
Ive heard so much reciently about soap nuts & I would love to save the money here, and think that being eco friendly too is an added bonus, BUT are these safe on sensitive baby skin? Theres no point in saving a little money if baby is going to get sore (costing more money on creams!). Has anybody used? Also, how good is the cleaning effect?
thanks

    I used to use these and had no problems with my then little baby. DD has excema and I noticed no ill effect on her skin, I used to use them on her cloth nappies aswell.

    My son has a nut and seed allergy (sesame and maybe other seeds). I was told I would be ok to use these........has anyone else had experience of whether they are ok for allergy sufferers as I am scared to try ;)
