I use cornstarch on my silicone inserts. I have no babies so I don't need baby powder, I do cook, so I keep lots of cornstarch.

I was thinking that baby powder was made from cornstarch with the addition of a few additives just to make it smell good. But since I don't have any babies, I can't say for sure. :D
There may be some baby powder made from talc, so best to check the ingredients. Although talc could work, the consensus is that cornstarch based powder is best.
Also the kind used for cooking is fine as well. That's what I use. :thumbs_up:

I feel much better now that I've given up hope.

That's what I do. Others may do things differently though.
Although there is nothing wrong with the Johnson and Johnson kind as far as I know. The food grade is just a little cheaper. Which is great for a cheap bastard like me! :D

I use Johnsons cornstarch baby powder with lavender scent. don't use regular baby powder as it contains talc which causes cancer and respiratory problems. make sure it says cornstarch…..

Baby powder causes cancer in women and allergies to latex in general. Cornstarch is highly recommended and all natural.

Never heard of. As far as I know it's either talc or cornstarch to choose from, while babypowder can be based on both, but can also have an added scent to it if you wish, much like babyoil. Most people use cornstarch, which is cheapest and also the safest option if you worry about inhaling it.

As for brands, it's different for different countries. I doubt it matters. Didn't even know there were alternatives to "food grade", so that's probably what I'm using :D

At my Vons/Safeway they had cornstarch options in a cardboard box and a plastic jar. The plastic jar is so much nicer for access and keeping it clean.
I got babypowder once to keep my own groin dry during hot days. Always hate that smell.
Go cornstarch all the way.

Just found this article which is worth reading about the alleged risks of people using talc:
