How Bloop Helps You Care for Baby's Skin—Naturally
Babies are tiny, miraculous, and let’s be real—messy. Between spit-ups, blowouts, and everything in between, you’re probably doing more laundry than ever. But here’s something many new parents don’t realize:
What you wash baby clothes with matters just as much as what you put on their skin.
A baby’s skin is thinner, more porous, and far more sensitive than an adult’s. That means harsh detergents—filled with toxic fragrances, dyes, and preservatives—can leave behind residue that irritates, itches, or even causes allergic reactions.
The good news? Switching to a natural laundry detergent isn’t just a crunchy-parent trend—it’s a smart, science-backed choice for keeping your baby comfy, safe, and rash-free.
Baby Skin Is Sensitive—for a Reason
Your baby’s skin acts as a barrier—but it’s not fully developed yet. That means it absorbs chemicals more easily and reacts more intensely to potential irritants. Common symptoms of detergent irritation in babies include:
-
Red, itchy rashes (especially in creases or under clothing)
-
Flaky skin or eczema flare-ups
-
Dry patches that don’t go away with lotion
-
Fussiness around laundry day (yes, it’s a thing!)
Many traditional detergents are loaded with artificial surfactants, preservatives, and toxic fragrances that linger on fabrics—transferring straight to your baby’s skin with every wear or snuggle.
Why Natural Detergent Is Better for Babies
Here’s why more parents are switching to natural laundry soap like Bloop:
✅ 1. Free from Harsh Chemicals
Bloop is made without:
-
Sulfates (SLS/SLES)
-
Synthetic dyes
-
Optical brighteners
-
Parabens or phthalates
That means no harsh residues rubbing against the baby's skin 24/7.
✅ 2. Gentle, Plant-Based Formula
Our formula uses natural surfactants derived from coconuts and other plants—strong enough to handle blowouts, but gentle enough for your baby’s first onesie.
✅ 3. Light, Non-Irritating Scents
We know some parents prefer fragrance-free. But if you do love a touch of scent, Bloop's signature blends—like Super Bloom (gentle florals), Stone Fruit (subtle and sweet), and Care Free (calming clean)—are toxin free.
They’re soft enough for a baby, but still make folding laundry feel a little magical.
Real-Life Uses for Bloop in the Nursery

The best part? You only need 1/2 oz to 1 oz per normal load, and it works for both HE and standard machines—so you’re saving money while protecting your baby’s skin.
