Can you not stand the smells of the commercial non-organic ones? I used to be a bath and body works fan, I used to love their foamy hand soap for kids. Now that I've been using a organic brand (California baby) I can't stand the smell of the BBW ones! It smells like a bunch of chemicals! It's funny how you can get so desensitized. Gosh now I'm wondering about my Wallflowers by BBW? I'm wondering if they are going to bother me too?

I agree wholeheartedly. I also can't stand to think of the parabens and phtalates in all of the fragrances. Kind of makes me sick to my stomach. I am absolutely done with all of that . The bonus is that it saves me a TON of money (no more semi-annual sales!:happy dance: !!!

I totally agree. I can't even go into a BBW store, without coughing and sneezing, now. And I used to LOVE their products! Most of what I use now either has no real scent or just whatever is naturally in it, like lavendar...not lavendar scent, but the real thing! Oh, and don't get me started on Johnson and Johnson's baby wash and shampoo...ugh!

I can't even go in my friend's house if she used Pine-Sol. That stuff just burns my sinuses. Anyone here use shaklee products? I got invited to a shaklee thing but I've never used them.

Bath and Body Works and those candle shops in the mall -- ugh how can anyone work there? I'd keel over! I have lots of perfume from "my former life" he he and put some one one night when I was going out to a seminar.... GAG I couldn't stand the smell of myself! I came home and showered, but could still smell it. choke. gag. I feel bad for the people sitting around me!

I can't breathe in those places. The worst place around me is the Bed Bath and Beyond. I just quit going there.
