What is that smell?
What is that smell in your bathroom? No, we’re not talking about that smell.
We’re talking about the many scents emanating from bathroom. You know, from your:
hand soap
shaving creme
lotion
deodorant
body wash
toothpaste
mouthwash
sunscreen
hair styling products
shampoo
hair conditioner
lip balm
body scrub
make-up
perfume
Wow, that’s a lot of different bathroom products and these are just the items that I decided to list because these ALL get washed down the drain and end up in OUR water system. Even a minimalist in our culture is likely to use at least two of the above items at least once a day. More likely, most of us probably use at least five of these items on a daily basis.
As a female in my late thirties, I use on average eleven of these products daily. Even my husband can be found using at least nine of these products daily and nobody would ever accuse him of being metrosexual.
So, consider this – most products contain artificial fragrances or parfums and other artificial ingredients and preservatives. All of these chemicals are being absorbed into and onto our bodies and then trickle down into our waters daily. Even some products that are advertised as “all-natural” sneak in an artificial fragrance or two and think nothing of it. Oddly enough, some “unscented” products use artificial fragrances to cover up the natural scent of their product so they can market it as unscented.
Our products, here at San Diego Bath & Body Co., do NOT contain artificial scents, artificial colors or other artificial ingredients. We use plant-based (botanical) essential oils to naturally scent our products. To check out our full line of bath and body products visit www.sdbathandbody.com.
We’re curious, how many of the above products do you use daily?
