My son still has reactions to the borax, so I switched to Shaklee Basic - L, it is more powerful than any sold in stores! There are no phosphates, borates, dyes to pollute or cause allergic reactions. 1 oz cleans a load of nasties! You can check them out at www.shaklee.com or email me at healthy_home101@hotmail.com with any other questions.

If so, that's amazing and I've got to do it. Posted on 05/10/2006 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Cleaning With Ivory Soap Flakes By Maggie (Guest Post) Thanks! Didn't know they were not making that any more, the still have it listed in TONS of books to use for craft projects for kids. I was wondering why I couldn't find it! Will try flaking the bar soaps....

I certainly don't mean to be argumentative, but it can't be said that washing handkerchiefs with a regular load of laundry is as great an impact on the environment as the process of making paper we don't need in the first place. And I meant it as a money saving idea - and it does save money. A few rags and cloths don't warrant their own laundry load so no extra money is spent there. Another person reminded me that Ivory soap does contain animal fats and have been told Kirk's Castille soap is a good alternative to Ivory if a person doesn't want to use animal products.

Tissues are so much more sanitary. Also those cloth handkerchiefs and cleaning rags have to be laundered, using energy which we should conserve. Trees are a renewable resource. Just something to think about. Posted on 03/07/2006 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Cleaning With Ivory Soap Flakes By (Guest Post) Ivory Flakes... Not to date myself but I wasn't doing my laundry in '78. What were they - a laundry detergent. Alex - USA Editor's Note: Hi Alex, Ivory Flakes was a laundry detergent made for baby clothes. It was basically flaked Ivory Soap.
