    Question Is baby powder good or bad?!

    Ive heard so many different things and would like to know once and for all which one is right!

    I use baby powder on my sheets and on myself i find it stops my skin itching so much (i suffer with moderate eczema) and makes me smell nice, but does it block your pores? The only probems i ever have are that it makes my eyeballs very dry, my cat sneeze, and my OH moan at me when he pulls back the covers to get into bed and is greeted by a large white cloud!

    Should you or shoudnt you use baby powder?

    its not good to breathe a lot of it in.
    theres no problem using it in moderation but i wouldnt be dousing the sheets in it.

    inhaling any sort of dust is not a good thing to be doing.

    Like eleni says, in moderation is fine. I wouldn't be putting it on my sheets, but lightly sprinkling on you is fine.

    I would agree that putting it on your sheets will cause anyone to sneeze coz its excessive. You can put a few sprinkles if you want your sheet to smell nice and comfy or you can buy a liquid baby powder. I guess that's safer...

    I use baby powder on my skin specially after putting lotion to make me feel soft not greasy.

    Definitely, It is helpful for the skin not harmful. And already it is helpful for you in itchy skin. Then there is no any matter for the harmful for the skin.
