Review of New Product! *Ilumina Organics*

This past week I have been using on my child with eczema and myself Ilumina's Organics Head-to-Toe Baby Wash (Ilumina products are mainly for mothers and babies and include soaps, washes, and pregnant/nursing mother products to name a few). Now, I have used a lot of supposed "all natural, organic" products before and usually what I get is something half all natural or semi-all natural that doesn't seem to do much in the way of cleansing or leaves my daughter's/my skin feeling like it wasn't washed at all or very dry and I always have to try diligently not to get it near her eyes. I always test these new products on myself first, since I have used so many its very easy to tell if they will irritate her skin or not if I use them first. I was pleasantly surprised I must say. The ingredients listed on the bottle are indeed all natural and/or organic and the company even claims the bottles in which their products are placed in are 100% synthetic free so nothing potentially harmful will leach into them from the plastic. Organic washes tend to be watery and not sudsy but this wash was both. It has a pleasant natural smell and lathers up quite well. I used it in my hair first and was shocked at how soft my hair was after rinsing and combing. I have never used a baby wash product that actually made even my adult hair manageable, much less soft. It had the same effect on my daughters hair and did not irritate her eczema laden skin or eyes whatsoever and even made her skin feel hydrated and soft. I am very pleased by this product and will be trying some of their others in the coming weeks for my child and myself. If their baby wash can do this to my hair then I can't wait to see what their adult shampoo will do.
