The laundry detergent you should use for babies is laundry detergent that is free of dyes, phosphates and perfumes such as Tide Free & Gentle Laundry detergent.

Although you don't have to use special laundry detergent for babies but doing so can help keep them from breaking out in possible rashes.

The best kind of laundry detergent for sensitive skin is non bio laundry detergent.

Since babies have sensitive skin it's recommended to use non bio laundry detergent so if an adult has sensitive skin they should also use non bio laundry detergent.

Babies use non bio detergent as the non bio detergent is easier on the babies skin.

Parents should really wash the babies clothes in non bio detergent as they contain less chemicals which won't be as irritating to a babies sensitive skin.

Babies skin is more sensitive than adults skin is so it's best to use a laundry detergent that is formulated for babies clothes so that they don't get the irritation.

Although not necessary and required it's always recommended to use a non-biological detergent when washing newborn's clothes, this is down to baby's having very delicate skin.

Biological detergents contain strong stain-busting enzymes that could irritate baby's skin, whereas non-biological detergents are still highly effective but are gentler on skin.

The difference between bio detergent and non bio detergent is that the biological detergents contain enzymes which make it easier to break down the dirt that builds up in your clothes.

Non-bio detergents don't contain these enzymes, making them generally kinder to sensitive skin.

The enzymes in biological washing detergent work by breaking down proteins.

Bio laundry detergent contains enzymes that help to break down common stains, such as food stains, sweat stains, grass stains and grease.

Although non biological detergents do not contain stain removing enzymes, they can still be great at removing stains and keeping your clothes clean and smelling fresh.
