Comments on: EO: One excellent eco-friendly shampoo http://greenlagirl.com/2008/03/02/eo-one-excellent-eco-friendly-shampoo/ Urban environmental lifestyle blog in Los Angeles Thu, 20 Nov 2008 09:27:29 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.1 By: Siel http://greenlagirl.com/2008/03/02/eo-one-excellent-eco-friendly-shampoo/#comment-247952 Siel Fri, 07 Mar 2008 19:42:27 +0000 http://greenlagirl.com/2008/03/02/eo-one-excellent-eco-friendly-shampoo/#comment-247952 I'm not sure about the mosquito-repelling power of EO, but I'm quite sure about its cleansing power -- and its lemony freshness :) After discovering EO, I just don't get why other shampoo companies don't do the same -- both the ones that use unnecessary, questionable chemicals AND the ones that try to hawk less-than-impressive products.... I’m not sure about the mosquito-repelling power of EO, but I’m quite sure about its cleansing power — and its lemony freshness :)

I have been using the lavender liquid soap for a number of years now, and EVERYONE that comes visit falls in love with it! Marin, lovely for soaps, cheese and butt-kicking bike trails. xoxo- sfbike love girl EO is one of my favorite soaps ever.

Parabens are used as preservatives. Other more 'natural' products have found a way to preserve their products naturally without using parabens. See EWG's website for more info, search your favorite products or to look up specific ingredients for toxicity levels: www.ewg.org/skindeep EWG or Environmental Working Group is doing a great service by providing information to the public that the FDA is not.

I wonder if the lemony scent will also help keep away mosquitoes in warmer weather? I x-nayed deet for citronella oil (which my husband finds overpowering!) and I find garlic and B12 also helps "un-sweeten" my scent. As always, you get what you pay for! Siel, EO sounds terrific!

Thanks for the comprehensive review of EO shampoo and conditioner ...so many "organic" products either smell like nothing or frankly, smell bad! The Environmental Working Group tells us fragrance is bad for our health, so I've been avoiding it, but I miss lemony-fresh smells in the shower! This natural essence would be great. Also love the fact that it comes in gallon containers - so many "green" manufacturers neglect the all-important packaging component. Wow!
