I've been having a look around, but it's quite mind boggling when you're not sure really what you're looking for! Basically, I need some nice shampoo, something for the bath (bubbles would be good ), a body wash and maybe an oil or something aswell. I like the look of the Burt Bees range, but they don't do a shampoo. Are the other products any good? Can anyone point me in the right direction, and recommend some please?

Many Thanks

Not bothered about price, because everything seems to last forever ~ I've spilled DS's shampoo bottle twice, and it's still 3/4 full!

mamatoto do the Earth Friendly Baby range which is gorgeous - the chamomile shampoo and bodywash lasts for ages, plus it's got a squirty cap so even if you knock it over it doesn't spill! If you use code SW1ZZ200 they give you free postage and packaging.

Burt's Bees do a shampoo, it's a bar and it's gorgeous and lasts for absolutely ages. Looks like this \link{http://www.amazon.com/Burts-Bees-Baby-Shampoo-bars/dp/B00014EAHY}

Hi,

Just be warned, if an item is not food then only 1 ingredient has to be organic to call an item organic. I can spend hours in a shop near me that mainly sells organic/vegan ranges, looking at the labels trying to eliminate the chemicals that are being put on your body. I have found a soap that is 87% organic and 12% water (so 1% chemicals) and that was the closest I could find to 100% organic soap. If you have stopped putting chemicals in to your body via your food supply then it is worth the effort to stop putting them on your body too.

FYI the soap was from 'Organic Options' www.dendera.net. Can't advise on other organic smellies as am slowly converting as I finish off the old stuff in my cupboard (weighing up scrapping all stuff in my cupboard and putting it into the bin versus use everything up and replace as it is used I have gone for the latter).

HTH!

wow - thats what threw me. Some had * by the organic ingredients, but I wondered about the others... and some said paraben free, and again, I wondered about the others. I might go for Burt Bees because I like the packaging and the ingredient list seems nice and short....

Thanks for your help xxx
