Hey there,
So I've moved to Australia and I've found lux flakes!!!! So now I need to know how to use them? I've read before that you can use these to wash your cloth nappies and they're quite good???? How do you use them haha. Also the eucolyptis oil, is this a no-no? Thanks.  ------------- http://tickers.cafemom.com">

Lux flakes are a big NO NO, they put a layer over your nappies and they dont soak up as well. Plus I thought you could still get them in NZ? You only need to use washing powder on them, half as much as you would normally use. -------------
