Q&A: Is it safe to use Purex Natural Elements for Baby clothes?

Question by abc123: Is it safe to use Purex Natural Elements for Baby clothes?
I currently use Purex Natural Elements for the household. It’s free of dyes and hypoallergenic, but it does have “Natural Fragrance Extracts” that I’m worried about. I’ve planned on using this detergent, with less than normal amounts per load, with an extra rinse per cycle for our first baby. Do you think the natural fragrance extract is something to worry about?

Try it and see. If your baby’s skin starts to feel dry or get patchy or rashy, then change it to Purex Free and Clear. I’d personally just go with the Purex Free and Clear, and you can always add a bit of the Natural Elements and slowly wean baby over.

    honestly, no. if it says natural extracts, the fragrances put in there probably are essential oils and stuff like that, not any weird chemicals. I don’t know, if you wash your clothes in that and hold your baby, that’s the pretty much the same as your baby clothes being washed in that. so unless you want to change detergent for all laundry, the stuff you’ve got is fine :)

    if it is only mild,maybe it is safe,don’t make it too much of it.baby is so sensitive in so much of any fragrances.So does the urban fashion.
