Current bath soap is a gallon jug of fragrance-free liquid, so not sure how to proceed there.<br /><br />Tho not my favorite for bathing, I can handle the Ivory fragrance. I'll grab a few bars and give it a shot!<br /><br />Thanks again -- gonna make Ivory snow!Monsoon Matriarchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15476615206392489371noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4941081507035146847.post-55565689672654467512012-11-25T09:05:29.755-06:002012-11-25T09:05:29.755-06:00Ivory soap is an acceptable substitute.

I would try a small batch (1 cup of each) to make sure there are no issues. Perhaps, you could also use your current bath soap?Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14188650874375595590noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4941081507035146847.post-79394524780999927272012-11-25T08:29:47.885-06:002012-11-25T08:29:47.885-06:00MM, not sure where you live, but a quick look for ...MM, not sure where you live, but a quick look for hypoallergenic bar soap produced Dial Basics, and Johnson's Baby bar soap. I don't know how any of them smell, but maybe k could add one or more of them to his Amazon store for purchase to try.<br /><br />I don't get asthma, I don't think, but so many shampoos, soaps and deodorants give me a pounding headache so I feel for you.<br /><br />From K's first post, and from others I've read, I think you could try a substitute and see if it works for you. Even try it without the bar soap, perhaps. Good luck!<br />LindaGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12203719919661519350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4941081507035146847.post-45897939523474843562012-11-25T06:36:44.335-06:002012-11-25T06:36:44.335-06:00Many thanks for this re-post.My Q is whether the f...Many thanks for this re-post.My Q is whether the fels soap scent is reduced significantly in the final product. I'm the opposite of your Dear Wife. I have to keep my fels in a sealed container because the scent gives me an asthma attack (2 strikes in keeping clean and healthy in emergencies).Would probably need to enlist my DH to grate the fels. Are you aware of any other less scented substitutes for the Fels? I looked at Zote (Mexican equivalent) but it is highly scented too. (Can't use regular Tide due to the fragrance issues).<br />Thanks!!Monsoon Matriarchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15476615206392489371noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4941081507035146847.post-9535905736686674472012-11-24T19:56:16.451-06:002012-11-24T19:56:16.451-06:00I'm glad that I updated the post.
