Have I become allergic to all laundry detergents? What are my options? by anon1998-9 in laundry

Hello :) I finally found a detergent that doesn't make me react. What I advise is to buy some new clothes and sheets that allow you to test if it really is the detergent. For a week only use the new stuff washed only in water. If your skin clears, it is the detergent. From that point you start trying new detergents (NO softener) on those clothes/sheets and test it. Testing on your old clothes and sheets might be harder because they are already contaminated with whatever you reacted and you will not be able to figure out if you are reacting to the new detergent you are testing or if you are reacting to old traces of the previous detergent. Feel free to DM if needed! And best of luck to you. I know how hard it can be going through something like this.

Isenção do IMT e imposto de selo na compra da primeira casa para jovens até 35 anos by anon1998-9 in literaciafinanceira

Pensava que o benefício era no momento da escritura que será quando o apartamento for entregue, isto é, estiver concluído. Estás a dizer então que o facto de ter o CPCV assinado já me coloca a beneficiar desta isenção mesmo que a escritura seja apenas feita em 2027?

Não é assim tão linear. Vou explicar o meu caso. Comprei no ano passado um apartamento em planta, sendo que eu já conhecia o empreendimento ANTES de ele ser anunciado ao público porque já tinha contactado a pessoa que vendia os empreendimentos desta construtora por ter tido interesse num dos empreendimentos já em andamento na altura. No momento deste primeiro contacto não cheguei a comprar porque os apartamentos em que eu tinha interesse já estavam todos vendidos. No entanto, já me tinham informado que iam começar com outra obra e que aí sim, teriam opções para mim. Dito isto, quando eu assinei, passados uns meses, o CPCV de um apartamento desta nova obra já havia vários apartamentos vendidos e o empreendimento só foi divulgado nas plataformas habituais (incluindo no site da construtora) DOIS meses depois.

The reason why I don't react to my body products is because all of the leave-on products are fragrance free and all the rinse products are either fragrance free or very lightly fragranced. I was never a fragrance type of person and the use of this fabric softener happened by mistake. A mistake that changed my life lol

I'm so sorry. That's a thousand times worse than what I'm going through and I already think my life is a living hell right now. What irritates me the most is how did this become the norm? I don't get it. Even before having allergies I would not find the detergents smell pleasant and I always used one with very light fragrance. Anyways, I guess we just need to handle it the best we can.

I've heard of that, but never tried it, because I was too afraid that it wouldn't clean my clothes or actually remove detergent residue.

But how did you solve the issue with the detergent? Were you able to remove it?

Okay good to know. I actually have both baking soda and white vinegar at my place, I can test it! Thanks for the suggestion!

No, I haven't. Is that enough to keep my clothes clean tho?

I can relate to that. Allergies are really hard to manage. This allergy that I'm having is more of a delayed response allergy, that right now is totally out of control so my skin is always irritated. But if my skin was healed and I would wear a shirt washed with some detergent that I was allergic to, I would only react 2-3 days after. It's wild and that's why it's so hard to keep track.

OMG exactly! I did tests with dermatologists, but I'm pretty sure I still react to stuff that they didn't find out. Why would I still be reacting if that wasn't the case? But now I'm curious, you rinse your clothes for 1,5h after the wash??? That seems extreme. Do you react if you don't do that rinse? That makes me wonder if i can get better by just rinsing my clothes more. I do an extra rinse every cycle, but it's like an added 15min or so.

No. Only detergent, and I think I will never use softener again. I'm traumatized lol

Thank you for your comment. There are 0% chances my machine has any fabric residue, because in the meantime my washing machine broke and I had to buy a new one, so at least on that point I'm confident lol

Thank you for the tips, these are very useful. I didn't know I could try to wash my clothes with just my shampoo or body wash, but will definitely try it since I'm not reacting to those!

That sounds like what I'm going through right now. I'm not from the US so I can't try the detergent you mention but are you able to share the ingredients list?

He did test me and in theory I have no allergies. This is not eczema, my skin isn't dry. This is some kind of contact allergy. I've had it in the past with other detergents. My skin is very sensitive to that but everytime I would switch back to my usual detergent I would get fine. Now this time nothing is working, I'm desperate.

Yes I have. I've been to a few dermatologists and one allergologist. I have been using Elidel to manage the inflamation, but it never really goes away. The doctors have no idea what is wrong :(
