Ecostore all the way for us here too. The washing detergent works brilliantly and is economically v.good compared to supermarket brands. I get the sneezes when I walk past the "phosphate aisle" in the supermaket nowdays.

Ecostore bum balm is a miracle cream for bums, faces, exzema and other topical skin conditions. Plus the ecostore shampoo is the only one that we've used that doesn't require a conditioner.

ecostore products are SLS free, made with natural oils etc and are gentle on bub and the environment.

No here's where I get all gushy, I liked the products so much I decided to sell them in my store...

I also sell Cherub Rubs which are great natural products and the only Australian made products that are certified organic, plus they're made by a lovely Mum of 3 who's also a naturapath - the barrier cream and massage oil are particularly good.

We've tried all of the other natural brands and supermarket brands and I'm happiest with the performance and value of ecostore and Cherub Rubs products

Good wishes to you and the new bubba!

we hardly use anything! i just have never had reason to use soap on my babies, warm water and wash cloth work fine, i dont want to mess with their skin balance, especially in those first few days. and i have to admit i didnt wash them too much either (dont mean to sound like a smelly hippy but....) i just dont think they need constant bathing, we kept their bums clean, we gently wiped any areas we thought needed wiping, wash when necessary. i guess i like to question the things we are told we 'need' for our bubs (like cots, toiletries, constant loud toys for stimulation)

i love ecologic lavender laundry liquid, use it sparingly for everything i wash. and the few times i have put something on peppers bum (when some nappy free time just doesnt cut it) its been diluted tinderbox calendular tincture or a hypericum cream.

how exciting, how many weeks pregnant are you now!?
