This is so sad! Money-making industries at the expense of our health and our childrens' health. Moreover, the product-testing on animals that is absolutely cruel and unnecessary!
The Arbonne company has had an ethical standing for 30+ years, which is what I love about them the most. The baby line is the ONLY product I will buy for my little angel niece, along with all my friend's kids. Wish I knew about this when my son was an infant!

This is a very useful blog, but I am afraid that some people don't realize the danger that not just J&J's products represent, but every national brand on the market. Children are not the only ones effected, people of all ages are exposed to deadly toxins, not just in hair shampoo, conditioner and liquid soaps, but most of the products in our homes. The following national brand products all contain known carcinogens and even chemicals classified as toxic waste by federal law, including laundry detergents, fabric softeners, dryer sheets, deodorants, make ups, moisture creams, wrinkle creams, shaving creams and many more. The better a product smells, the more toxic it is. Always buy the no scent product as they are usually safer, but some contain toxic chemicals to get rid of a bad smell.
What is the alternative? Buy all your products at a health food store but make sure you read the labels as some of the products in there also contain toxic chemicals. Nationally sold laundry detergents like Tide etc. contain ingredients intended to make your clothes feel stiff on purpose. Why would they do that? So they can sell billions of dollars a year in fabric softener. Most all of these products I just mentioned are banned in Europe by the EPA because they contain so many toxic chemicals.
One alternative is to purchase Soap Nuts for your laundry needs. These are berries that grow on trees and contain no toxic chemicals at all. They also don't pollute the environment. They clean extremely well and leave your wash softer than ever without using fabric softener.
One person said they can't afford to buy Green, healthy products. Soap nuts are a lot less expensive than Tide and all the other toxic name brands. The best place get them is at www.greenvirginproducts.com. We have the best price and quality I have found.

Thank you
