Detergent Questions - Charlies & 7th Gen

[momma2be_k]

So.... I've read that if you use a clean rinsing detergent like Charlies, you should use it on everything in your laundry.

Has anyone had success using Charlies just on dipes and 7th Generation on their clothes?

I have a front loader and I really like using the 7th Generation on my clothes, and I don't want to change if I don't have to.

TIA!

That's what the company says. No personal experience.

I'm curious about this too...I'm debating between planet, charlies or 7th gen. I was planning on only using these on my dipes and continuing to use All free and clear on our clothes. Wondering what the problem would be if I do this? And which of the 3 to use for dipes?

I had lots of problems with our diapers early on when I used different detergents for diapers than for clothes. I ended up contacting the woman who sold me the diapers and she said I basically had a "science experiment" happening inside my washer, and that I really needed to pick a good-rinsing, diaper-safe detergent (I chose Charlie's and have loved it-- not turning back! Our clothes have never been so fresh and clean!) and stick with it. She was right.

I use 7th Gen free and clear and Mrs. Myers on clothes with NO side affects.
