Ever look at the ingredient list of one of your beauty products and wonder what Perfume or Fragrance really means? This may surprise some, but Perfume or Fragrance is NOT just one ingredient, "it can easily hide 100 ingredients that don't have to be listed on the label." Crazy right??
Some of these unwanted chemicals, include several hormone disruptors, carcinogens and allergy- and asthma- triggering ingredients.
So what are some alternatives to Perfume or Fragrance? The first option you have is to go with Fragrance-Free products. Too make sure that the product is actually unscented, take a sniff because many creams and body care products have a light fragrance, even when it says Fragrance-Free.
The second alternative to Perfume or Fragrance is to go for products that derive their aroma from natural sources. You can also shop for products that have "Phthalate-Free" labelled. I personally like using high-quality, certified organic essential oils.
