Me too.Hubby has exema and dandruff,bad.We've bought little $10.00 bottles of tar shampoo etc over the yrs and finaly I started making my own laundry soap and shampoo.I use the Borax,Fels naptha,and super washing soda for laundry in the 5 gallon bucket.Lasts for months if not a year.And the shampoo is store bought from Sally's,but I add neem oil to it.I also buy the foot/elbow cream that's thick in the short fat jar in the foot section at walmart,and add neem oil to it too.He uses it daily and has no problems any more.I also added neem oil to the shower body soap.It kills all that kind of stuff.Tee tree oil does the same.It's antibacterial,antibiotic,antifungus,etc.Kills all kinds of things.I also use it in my toothpaste.
