It wasn’t until I had kids and I was introduced to young living that I learnt about greenwashing and the way companies falsely market their products.
Children’s products are not exempt from this 😢
Avoiding toxic chemicals is especially important when it comes to protecting our babies and children, who are so much more sensitive to toxic chemicals. Their bodies are still developing and studies show even small exposures during critical windows can lead to breast cancer, infertility, learning disabilities, and other serious health problems later in life.
Good, clean and sustainable products don’t happen by accident. It costs companies more to formulate these products so most take the easier and cheaper path which means undesirable ingredients sneak in. But the good news is, there are companies that take those extra steps to ensure no phthalates, BPA and BPB substitutes, formaldehyde and formaldehyde releasers, fragrances and other harmful ingredients make it into their products.
Young Living is that company for us 🍃
I cannot love this range more! Seedlings is a beautiful baby product range that uses plant based formulas and infant-safe essential oils and (of course) are free from harmful ingredients such as alcohol, parabens, phthalates, petrochemicals, animal-derived ingredients, synthetic preservatives or synthetic dyes.
What I also love about these products is that they are also very versatile! They can be used in a lot of different ways for different things.
But I’ll save that for another post!
What’s your favourite Seedlings product?
