They don't leak, and my daugter has no rash like she had with the super cheap generic diapers. I think that you can't beat them as far as value for your money is concerned.Jessica Alba Diapershttp://theawesomeboston.com/jessica-alba-visits-cambridge-to-promote-her-new-diapers/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329539190216740306.post-6971786979130213912012-12-19T12:51:31.994+11:002012-12-19T12:51:31.994+11:00Hey Rockabilly!

The bicarb and vinegar haven't faded my colour or anything...don't know if it would be the same with bright red hair though haha!

Unfortun...I have to say what you write makes sense. Unfortunately I 'need' those chemical shampoos to keep my hair bright red after washing, but I think this also might be a good idea for dog shampoo! I don't like the fact that there's 'mink oil' used in them. Something to research!

Firstly, commercial shampoos ARE inherently bad, WHY? because they contain a cocktail of artificial chemicals which penetrate into the deepest layers of your skin and cause free radical damage, poisoning your cells and causing cancer. Numerous chemicals are in all commercial shampoos, soaps, shaving creams and deodorants are all carcinogenic - FACT. So actually, it does mean they are inherently bad not only because they are designed to damage your health but because decades of media propaganda and advertising have brainwashed morons like you to think that they are a household necessity and to keep on buying them.<br /><br />You're seemingly more worried about your eyes stinging a bit by natural vinegar than a chemical shampoo which makes no sense whatsoever. Most people who try the baking soda and vinegar method carefully tilt the head back whilst washing so they do not to get any in their eyes, you I imagine probably wash your hair like a manic gimp on steroids getting it everywhere. And "should we stop washing our bodies too?" - did she actually fucking say that in her article? no!<br /><br />Oh and by the way 'on a personal note' - nobody gives a shit about the fact that YOU don't wash at all after your "sweaty workouts" or that your acne has cleared up. <br /><br />Laterz :)Piemannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329539190216740306.post-35757146518164351942012-12-17T07:47:59.909+11:002012-12-17T07:47:59.909+11:00Hi Anon, I didn't say if you couldn't get ...Hi Anon, I didn't say if you couldn't get it in your eyes you shouldn't put it on your skin. I said as a general rule *I* think if you can't ingest it then it's probably not the best to use as your body absorbs it one way or the other. There are plenty natural substances that are otherwise good for you that wouldn't be that great if it got in your eye, or at the very least would sting like hell! You're absolutely right, vinegar can burn your skin if it's neat, but here I'm talking about using a very diluted solution, that you leave in your hair for a min then rinse out. I wouldn't use conditioner on a small child or babies hair, so I wouldn't bother using a vinegar rinse on them either. Speaking generally, I'm saying I would much rather use natural products on myself and my children instead of a host of chemicals that have known carcinogenic effects. Before the No Poo challenge, I probably only washed my hair once or twice a week too, and I have found that my hair is so much healthier now. Just because it works for me doesn't necessarily mean it will work for you. Different strokes for different folks. I also only wash my face with water-same thing applies. The more you strip the oils with harsh foaming products, the more your skin will try to produce. That said, apple cider vinegar or witch hazel makes a great astringent, and coconut oil is a fantastic moisturiser :) Thanks for your comment!Candihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09062013784521093428noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329539190216740306.post-89997191877573407402012-12-17T00:53:07.086+11:002012-12-17T00:53:07.086+11:00I'm all for simple, natural, cheap (what have ...I'm all for simple, natural, cheap (what have you) remedies, but tell me how did the baking soda and vinegar score in the eye test? I just don't think that because you can't get something in your eye, means you can't get it on your skin. And in fact, vinegar has been known to BURN skin, especially on young children & babies. It should never be used on babies because of it's harshness. I also think just because shampoo wasn't invented until the last century doesn't mean it's inherently bad... should we also stop washing our bodies too? On a personal note, I stopped washing my hair every day, and can now easily go 3, even 4 days without a shampoo. My hair is softer & healthier by far, so I would also encourage people to train your hair to go longer between washes. It does take a few weeks to months to be consistently clean-looking, and not greasy, but it's worth it. I also find that if I have a sweaty work-out or something, I can just rinse it really well in the shower, but still skip the shampoo (I do add a light leave-in after a rinse). I have also done this with my face wash too. I noticed that after a long stint where I was unable to wash my face, my acne went away. It was the opposite of what I expected. I now only wash my face with cleanser if I wore foundation that day, or heavy greasy sunscreen. Otherwise, I wash once a week, and just use water & sometimes a light scrub in the shower in between cleansings. My face is clear & hydrated, and feels so much better than when I used to wash it once a day with cleanser.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329539190216740306.post-68042890127581627692012-12-17T00:20:11.808+11:002012-12-17T00:20:11.808+11:00homemade teatree soap with a palm oil base does wo...homemade teatree soap with a palm oil base does wonders, you dont need a conditioner either, my elderly mum makes it for me and i swear by itAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06775737683078707465noreply@blogger.com
