Fresh Organic Baby review & giveaway!!

I love products that make life simpler, and not only in the sense of being easier. Simpler meaning less ingredients too, less chemicals, less waste... just simpler. I am loving the new Fresh Organics baby care products I received for review, because they fit the sense of the word simpler that I love so much. I adore that these products are hypoallergenic, organic and effective! Lil' Buddy has sensitive skin at times, and I always fear that things are going to either be too strong for his skin, or be too weak and not get him clean enough. Fresh Organics shampoo and body wash, along with the bubble bath is perfection for my little man. Boug even used it as well, and although she's not a baby anymore, the shampoo and body wash was great for her 5 year old self!

Although I love the products themselves, I love all the information available at the Fresh Organics website. They have tons of resources for making better choices for yourself and your family. The article about ingredients to avoid was eye opening and all their frequently asked questions answered so much for me, from everything like why to avoid certain chemicals, as well as how Fresh Organics is cruelty free and phthalate free!!

Shop online for Fresh Organics products here.

Wow...I came across the 18 worst added chemicals in many products. My daughter was learning about this in her environment class and went around our house finding all of these, including Formaldehyde, Sulfates, etc. THAT would be very informative to the parents out there to see. (hint Casey). SCARY stuff. So I really WANT to try this giveaway product!!

thanks so much!

I liked their listing of the 18 worst added chemicals--it makes it a lot easier to check to make certain you stay away from those products.

I learned that soil depletion occurs when the components which contribute to fertility are removed and not replaced, and the conditions which support soil fertility are not maintained. This leads to increasingly poor crop yields. In agriculture, depletion can be due to excessively intense cultivation and inadequate soil management.

I learned about SLS. I had no idea sodium laureth sulphate was so horrible. I can't believe it damages the immune system and the eyes. This is disturbing. I need to be so much more careful when I shop now.

they do not contain artifical flavors.

Wow, that site is really eye opening. I learned that Cocamide DEA is in most shampoos/body washes and it stays in the system and builds over time, and has been linked to liver and kidney cancer (scary!!).

I learned about the 18 Worst Chemicals! I am very shocked how many there are and how many items they are found in! One that I am completely shocked about is Talc! I even use that everyday..so I think it's about time to try something else!

Crops grown without chemicals that can be toxic and have negative effects on your health and the environment
• Crops are pesticide, herbicide and synthetic fertilizer free• Crops are never genetically modified
• Organic farming does not contaminate our water supply
• Organic farming helps preserve the viability of small farms in America
• Organic farming is sustainable agriculture – top soil is increased, not depleted
