I not only try to use organic products, but I try to stick products with a list of ingredients I can pronounce. :) Thanks for coming by and leaving a comment. Marten,

I know several people who have this allergy. While I wholeheartedly agree that everyone should be very careful about what products they use, I feel it should also be mentioned that "organic" does not mean safe.

Everyone who wants to make $$$ is eager to add the label "organic" to their product, regardless of whether it's a safe product or not.
