Why does fels-naptha have triclocarban-for sure not an original ingredient? -wanted a natural soap for laundry but will now stop and look elsewhere.

I buy all my soap from Acadia Soap, a company that has a great on-line store, and one that uses no unnecessary ingredients in any of their soaps. I suggest you try them. I make a laundry soap using their straight lye soap, washing soda and borax, and my clothes sparkle.

I have successfully used Fels-Naphta to remove stains from dry-clean only items ( wool coats etc.) Then a vigorous brushing and an airing, either on clothes line or in the dryer, thus saving taking it to dry-cleaning. Other spot removers are much more environmentally damaging. Castile soap would be an all-natural options, but did not work well in spot removal.

I see the problem that there are two labels that people are answering in regards to. The original included both forms of folic acid. I see on the updated label there are still other synthetic forms of some of the other B-vitamins. (so I am passing on this product).

I just did more research - should have done before my purchase. It contains sodium laureth sulfate or SLES - it is milder, less irritating than SLS - it starts as coconut oil and then through processing it - it is not a green substance at the finish - I have used it for a bit of time but when the bottle is done, will try to find a product that is natural. I no longer recommend it. Hope this helps.

That's funny, I am not sure they have a brand. I personally bought it for the minimal ingredients, also the fact they aren't using Palm oil, which can be environmentally harmful. Doesn't smell like much, but it's good soap for the face, etc.

This particular soap does not have shea butter in it. Other brands offer African soap mixed with shea butter or other ingredients.

When I got mine a couple of years ago, I didn't get the great results from the Galeffi as I had for all those many years with the Brioschi I assumed that even though it said it compared to Broschi, the ingredients were not exact. I tried it only because the price of Brioschi had skyrocketed, and I couldn't afford it anymore. Now there is a product that has the Sodium Bicarbonate and the Tartnic Acid, called Gingera. I am considering trying that one.

I dont know what the ingredients are and I dont need to know, this soap has been used for a long, long time and it's obviously a terrific soap. I believe they tell you on the package what it's made of but I dont have time to go look. JUST BUY SOME, YOU'LL LOVE IT...

contains no naphtalene... ingredients: cleaners, soil and stain removers, chelating agents, colorants, perfume. I made my laundry soap out of this along with "washing" soda and Borax... great detergent and my 5 gallon mix (2 X recipe) lasts for nearly 3 months and costs about $2 each batch...

I have a bar and I just opened it (when I used up an older bar). Until I looked up how to replace it, I had no idea I was opening a Rarity that Antiques Roadshow would get excited over. (On the back of the box I opened, it says "aged for three months...") I too would like to buy more of the pre-2009 Pears' soap. (Perhaps I should add that I bought this box of Pears' Soap some years ago and sat it in a cabinet where I didn't see it and forgot about it. I did not buy it from Amazon.com; I'm not sure Amazon.com existed when I bought this box of Pears' Soap. I now think that perhaps I shouldn't use it - save it as a historical monument, so to speak.)

I didn't use feels-naptha back in the day so I don't know what it used to smell like. I use it to make laundry detergent so other items are mixed/boiled with this soap. I was able to find it at Walmart so there is no need for me to order it on line any more. Sorry I can't answer your question.

Sorry...it's the nasty new and allegedly improved formula. I asked a similar question a few weeks ago, and if you find it, I posted a link in the answers on that thread where you may find some of the old stuff.

I haven't used Natures Miracle, but the Feliway I used was a plug-in difuser rather than a spray although they do have a spray as well. I would think that they both have similar ingredients

The 3 shampoos in my house all have it. I'm curious, is it am allergy or a preference. I find that high end natural shampoos (without it) make my head itch like crazy!

I always figure if there are a lot of reviews it means two things. 1. The product has been around for awhile. 2. The product is with commenting on. I've used Charlie's Soap for 4 years and I use it to wash my cloth diapers. I've been happy with it. Recently I've started to research and consider alternate choices. Not because I'm unhappy with my Charlie's Soap, but because I just want to see what else is out there.

While neem oil may be harmless, I have contacted the company to find out what the rest of the ingredients are. After all, if I am concerned about what I use in my garden, I should be entitled to know what is in it. This is the response I got: "The other 30% is inert ingredients. Inert ingredients are classified as confidential by law, so I'm not at liberty to give them out." To me this rings alarm bells! I ended up purchasing pure neem oil. You still dilute it, as you would this product. This way I do not have 30% of undisclosed ingredients to deal with and neem oil is the only active ingredient anyway. The product I chose is Coastal Scents Neem Oil, 16.90 Fluid Ounce, for $13, on Amazon. I like that it is fare trade and not tested on animals.

One answer says it's "antibacterial". At least 10 years ago, California was publishing that antibacterial soaps (offending ingredient of Triclosan) is HORRIBLE for you and the environment! The state of Minnesota has banned all products with Triclosan (I think due to environmental damage)!
