I dream of a one-stop-shop for all things (truly) fragrance-free.
I’ve had eczema and used topical steroids for three decades. In recent years, I’ve experienced topical steroid withdrawal (TSW) and found myself bedridden, battling recurring infections, experiencing major hair loss and inflammation, and losing confidence by the second. My skin became allergic to common irritants and both natural and synthetic fragrances. Home remedies, diets, supplements, prescription medicines—nothing provided relief.
I’ve tried countless fragrance-free products in an effort to clean my body and home without triggering an allergic reaction.
I always ran into two problems:
1) Misleading Marketing: I learned the hard and expensive way that “unscented” and “fragrance-free” labels mean no synthetic fragrance. Naturally-derived fragrances like essential oils fly under the radar and are often found in products deemed “eczema-friendly” or “dermatologist-tested.” I liked lavender and ylang-ylang, but not the rage they sent my skin into. Curious about essential oils as irritants? Read more here.
2) Poor Quality: Scentless soaps had zero sudsing power. Hair care and lotions were mostly water (once I opened a shampoo and half the product flew out without me squeezing the tube). Prices were high for products that didn’t make me feel clean.
Through years of frustration, I unexpectedly found my passion. I’m so excited to share with you the products that I always wanted, but could never find. I use these products on the daily- they have become my go-to.
My “First Resort.”
