We've never, ever used talc of any kind. I don't really get the point of it tbh!

Boots do mooncups too btw :)

I have northern essence talc free talc. I got it last year and its lasted great. You prob could just use cornflour though. I also got NE vapour rub and omg it works wonders!

We use Earth Friendly baby and love it here :D I don't use any talc either but the cornflour in an old talc bottle sounds like a good plan to me xx

Not keen on talc, I find it dries out the body's natural oils (not trying to be unhelpful BTW!!)
