When you start to
delve into the world of fragrance free or unscented products you might find
that instead of finding your skincare or haircare products have less
ingredients in them, they may actually have more ingredients in them. In
some instances, what you will find is that many main stream commercial products
disguise the fragrances or scent of a particular product by using addition
chemicals to mask the odour. Obviously for people who have chemical sensitivities
or allergies, this can cause more problems due to the increased exposure to
chemicals. It makes sense, with the wealth of chemicals, toxins and pollutants
in our environment today, it is no wonder that so many of us are trying to
reduce our chemical and toxin exposure in our home environment.
Finding truly
unscented and fragrance free products that are both natural and chemical free
can be challenging, which is why at Down To Earth Organics we have created a
separate category for those who want to reduce their chemical exposure and use
natural unscented products in their home.
Unscented and
fragrance free products can be useful in many different situations: mums and
bubs tend to be a little more sensitive to scents. Many essential oils are not
suitable for pregnancy, breastfeeding and newborns – fragrance free skincare
products provide an easy solution to caring for baby’s sensitive skin. People
with topical skin sensitivity can also benefit from using unscented or
fragrance free products, using fragrance free laundry detergent and dish
washing detergents can also be great for those with dermatitis, psoriasis and
eczema (but doesn’t necessary get them out of doing the dishes!). Some
medications can put additional stress on the body and the immune system, people
undergoing chemotherapy or other drug treatments may find fragrance free
skincare and cleaning products a useful substitute for chemical laden products.
Another advantage to
natural unscented skincare and hair care products is that it gives you the
flexibility create your own personalised natural products, this is great for
people with a creative flair for using essential oils. You can create your own
individually scented natural skincare product with organic essential oils,
without the fuss of creating a whole new product from scratch.
Natural and organic
fragrance free and unscented products are also a great solution for the whole
family; it can eliminate the necessity to purchase a separate skincare or
haircare product for everyone in the family, so everyone is happy!
