they tend to advise you not to use normal washing powder if you have a history of some kind of skin allergy in the family as this could irritate the babys skin.

But the best thing to do is try and if it irritates your baby then stop using it.

I think it's generally best to use a non biological powder or liquid but I don't think it matters which.

I guess the best way is trial and error? I have really sensitive skin and I can only use one type of washing powder and one type of fabric conditioner so I'm praying my baby won't be allergic to them!

I use non bio and comfort wash conditioner. Just stick to the non bio and more sensitive ranges.
