What is a good brand of wool wash to use??

Preferably an IRL brand if you know of any. Thanks:)

I think most of them have eucalyptus oil as an additive, so therefore not good for mcn's??? The one that dosn't (softly) has an added fabric softner, so no good either.

I stand in the laundry aisle dumbfounded!!!:D

Ok then, so should I buy one from a site? I've seen some bar soaps, are they good??

I like the Softly wool wash, or the bars you can buy online, but the bars don't last as long for the $$ I find

Is the softly's brought online or in the supermarket?

Lately I've been using a small amount of baby wash, it's soft enough to use and does the same job as wool wash does.

The bars of soap you buy online are great too, but as HDD said they don't last very long for the amount of money you pay and then postage on top of that. It all adds up.

I assume you want it to wash your woollies, not nappies? Then it shouldn't really matter if it has eucalyptus in it or not...

I personally prefer a wool wash that has lanolin in it as well - i think its made by Northern Essences, & you can get it from Baby Soft Landings, Sustainable Hemp Products, Twins in Cloth, Wee Wuns, that's all i can think of atm.
Otherwise you can get any regular wool wash from the supermarket like Martha Gardener's, & then lanolise with plain lanolin

Hope this makes sense, writing & trying to struggle with a squirming DD...
