Let’s be honest, bath time with kiddos can be both magical AND messy—but what’s not magical is using products that are full of toxic chemicals, fragrances, and synthetic additives. ๐ฌ Did you know that the average children’s bath products on store shelves often contain harmful chemicals like sulfates, parabens, and artificial fragrances? Yikes! ๐ฑ
Here’s why that’s a big deal:
๐ฑ Your child’s skin is thinner and more sensitive than adults', which means it can absorb chemicals faster and in larger amounts. Add to that the fact that kids' bodies are still developing, and exposure to toxins in everyday products can have a more significant impact on their health over time.
๐ซ Artificial Fragrances & Dyes – Most synthetic fragrances and dyes are made from petrochemicals (yep, like what’s in gasoline ๐ณ), and many contain phthalates, which have been linked to hormone disruption and other health concerns. Plus, artificial colors and fragrance can cause skin irritation or allergic reactions.
๐ง Sulfates & Parabens – These common additives are used to create foam and extend shelf life, but they can disrupt your child’s endocrine system and lead to long-term health effects. Sulfates can also strip the skin of natural oils, leaving it dry and irritated.
That’s why I love Young Living’s KidScents Bath & Body Care line! ๐ These products are created with clean, safe, plant-based ingredients and are free from harmful toxins, synthetic fragrances, dyes, and parabens. ๐ Designed specifically for kids, they’re gentle on sensitive skin but tough on dirt and germs!
Here are a few must-haves from the KidScents line:
