yep, that's the one. They don't have to specify that it's actually palm oil. Vegetable oil can be used to cover most plant based oils and you'll even find it listed on most food as vegetable oil (like those frozen chips and such).
I actually feel like emailing the moogoo company and asking what is exactly in their vegetable oil and if they realise that alot of people may boycottalm oil them if they realise that their vegetable oil is palm oil.

There was a thread about it not long ago Maz, that is the only reason I know about it.
Someone send them and email and got one back that basically said there are other concerns they have and palm oil isn't one of them... Wonder where that thread is...

OOOO is that the thread (memory is poo!) where they basically said the cost to the consumer outweighs the use of the quantity of palm oil or something to that effect? I might be muddled because I tend to read a bit of media...
ETA: It might have been that they said the amount they use is minimal too. bummer, feeling muddled now...

I haven't read all the responses but will tell you what work well for our DD
- Gaia bath wash
- Sudocream at each nappy change to avoid nappy rash - she's only had a few bouts since birth!
- Huggies fragrance free wipes or Gaia wipes. We have NEVER had a problem with Huggies wipes but I know some bubs do.
- We have used Gaia moisturisers on the odd occassion but their skin is so soft, it really isn't necessary.
- Lucas Paw Paw cream for dry spots, really bad nappy rash (although Sudocream always works) and any other cuts or abbrasions
- for cradle cap, we used olive oil. Let it sit for a while (either while she bathed or a good 30 minutes before her bath) then either brushed off with a soft baby brush or just wiped off
