Bamboo Body for allergy and eczema sufferers
At Bamboo Body we believe that anything worn next to the skin should be pure and non-toxic. You might be surprised to know that 100% cotton is treated with a concoction of chemicals through its life cycle and certainly can’t be classified as pure and non toxic. It is reassuring to know that no chemicals were used when growing the bamboo in our fabric.
