Few things get me more fired up than companies who use marketing tactics to make you think their products are safe when they contain harmful chemicals. I have fallen prey to these tactics before which is why I am so passionate about sharing my knowledge and empowering you to make the best choices for you and your family.
Here are some common claims that green-washing companies will use to make your products are safe. This does not mean that when you see these claims on labels you should dismiss it but rather flip the product over and take a look at the ingredients.
❗️Fragrance-Free
❗️Non allergenic
❗️Natural
❗️Formulated without….
❗️Fresh, Homemade
❗️Non-toxic
Here are some common greenwashing brands you should be weary of:
🚫 Aveeno
🚫 Babyganics
🚫 Burt’s Bees
🚫 Lush
🚫 Method
🚫 Mrs Meyers
