Just as the title says really! I'd like to start to use more natural products on myself and DS (nearly 2). To begin with, I'd like a (non-perfumed?) soap and a light moisturiser.

Can anyone recommend brands and tell me about the various chemicals etc that is should try to avoid?

Weleda, neals yard, dr hautchka, all good 'natural' brands

Elave is great for sensitive skin. No parabens etc

Thanks all for the suggestions - I'll definitely try out some of them over the next couple of months.

I used my PitRok for the first time today - I had a surreptitious sniff of my underarms during my coffee break, and I'm planning on another after lunch. So far so good though! It was nice not to have sticky underarms when I used it this morning too.

Buddha Beauty do lovely stuff with no nasties.

I also bought a Green People shampoo and conditioner (vitamin I think). My hair feels like hair again! It was beginning to feel a bit greasy even when I'd just washed it, but now it feels lovely. And it always looks greasy the day after I've washed it, but today it looked fine Smile.

But I still washed it Grin. I'd love not to have to wash it every day though.
