Lately I've been hearing how Johnson's has ingredients that could possibly have carcinogens which have been known to cause cancer!! Is there any truth to this? Does using natural or organic products really make that big a difference? The generic is like a dollar at Target while the natural stuff can be almost ten bucks. Any thoughts?Natural baby shampoo vs. Johnson's baby shampoo?
I don't know about any harmful ingredients in Johnson %26amp; Johnson products, but my son had sensitive skin and didn't react well to them. That goes for Aveeno stuff too (they are J%26amp;J products). If the J%26amp;J products don't bother your child, I don't see why you can't keep using them. Only splurge on the $10 stuff if your kid is actually having problems and needs an alternative or if it's your lifestyle to go natural and organics. However, we splurged on the pricey natural stuff once, but it didn't seem to be any better for my son's skin than the cheap stuff.
Our pediatrician suggested Dove bar soap (sensitive skin) and it was great. Just don't get it in your baby's eyes, of course.Natural baby shampoo vs. Johnson's baby shampoo?
No. The only complaint anybody has had about Johnson's is that the 'no tears' is an additive that numbs the eye to irritation. The irritation IS STILL THERE, but the baby doesn't get upset about it. So, up to you. If you are very careful about not getting stuff into baby's eyes, then feel to use organic stuff. Do realize though that those concoctions have been sometimes removed from the market for causing other problems. I have never actually heard of any problems caused by Johnson's other than the odd child who is sensitive to any ingredients.
I hate j %26amp; j stuff like the lotion in the pink..we use Aveeno..
I choose natural products for my children as I believe harsh chemicals do not have a place on my children's skin.
