I can’t be without perfume I love smelling good
You can always make your own natural perfume :) www.joyoushealth.com/blogdetail.php?blogid=27032
You can smell good without perfume ya know.
@@katrinabryant9873 i agree , but I adore perfume it compliments everything! I do know that good hygiene it’s really important.
@@oliviavillanueva3937 perfume does not me good higiene, is just a mask.
@@oliviavillanueva3937- _You_ might enjoy it, but it is making some people around you _immediately ill,_ while impacting their and others' health as well, without their consent. It's an _unexpected chemical assault,_ and symptoms are worsened by cumulative exposures over years.
*Clean* has _no smell._
I've known for a while perfume and nail polish is bad news but kept holding on (old habits die hard after all) BUT you've inspired me and given me that push so I'm giving my bathroom a detox and dumping all the toxic shit OUT! Thanks Joy - inspirational as always 💖😊
So happy to hear that Celina! It can definitely be hard to let go of these things that have been such a staple in our life for so long but it makes such a difference when you do. Thanks so much for watching the video!
Perfume lovers forget that their beloved scent isn't experienced by them alone. It is afflicted on to others. On to babies, asthmatics, and people like me who suffer to every fragranced product we am forced to breathe.
Yes very true Vicci!
Perfume lovers are the worst kind of idiotic people,they believe that its perfectly safe as long as it has add on TV,they are uneducated to know that all the poisons that you inhale go str8 into your bloodstream,then proceed to buy drugs to feel better.Tryin to stay away from those toxic people as much as i can,unfortunatelly my mom is one of them and she makes fun of people like me
@@casualcookin3893 we have the freedom to wear whatever we want on our skin🤷♀️ if you don’t like it stay away from those who wear perfume
@@maryoomaaziz3606 Yeah i do stay away from people who are clueless how to use perfume,thanks for the advice doe :D
@@casualcookin3893 rest assure they stay away from stinky people too💓 anytime!
I stopped using scented items after learning that the smell of clean is nothing. I thought it was weird that nearly everything I owned had a scent to it from detergents to shampoos to lotions and deodorants. Since cutting out nearly all scented items (my natural deodorant is scented) I find I'm more sensitive to fake scents. I have to have a scented deodorant, that's definitely something I don't see changing.
I agree I don't care for scents but I have my natural deodorant that is scented naturally with essential oil. I need scents in my deodorant
Same ...and deodorant /laundry detergent/shampoo/liquid hand soap those are the only essentials
@@neematm8266 - The only essentials _for what?_ None of those need scents to _work._
*Clean* has *_no scent._*
@@wholeshebang1 hands clothes armpits do get smelly so water alone is not enough..clean does need a scent ..I disagree that clean has no scent
Looking forward to the video on natural fragrances!!!
Thanks Rita!
If she used to use Ck Eternity , it means she had no clue about perfumes to wear anyway ... that is pretty much the worst one. It gives you an idea of her ignorance in perfumes...there are plenty of subtle and light perfumes out there. She is overdramatizing.
Rude
I remember back in highschool when AXE was popular, boys would douse themselves instead of taking a shower and there was a warning given to the student body to not wear it in enclosed spaces like the bus because people barely learned it can cause allergic reactions to inhale.
There is so much about this that I had never heard! Thank you and so glad that I found you from Redhead Mare
So glad you enjoyed it!
I love that a Glade candle ad popped up before this video...
Haha! That's pretty hilarious
Eden's Garden do essential oil roll-ons. I like the Jasmine and Rose ones as perfume substitutes for everyday. It would be quite easy to make them yourself too. Great video - as always!
MyMissEllaBelle YES!! Love roll-ons🌸🌿
Thank you so much for making this video! I feel the same way about perfume toxicity, but I also really miss wearing my old perfumes, so I plan to start making my own with essential oils!
21earlthepearl my pleasure! I know what you mean, it was tough for me at first but now I don't miss it at all.
@21earlthepearl - When educating myself on airborne toxins I was surprised to learn from others with *Multiple Chemical Sensitivities/MCS* that the process of making essential oils _creates _*_VOCs_* (Volatile Organic Compounds) that some people can react to, especially if they are already sensitive to airborne chemicals.
Haven't worn in years. Now just a dab of essential oils and I'm good. Work with a gal who gets massive headaches. I have too. Thanks for info Joy! Anxious to hear about your potions! ☀️🌸🥀🌺
That's perfect and exactly what I do too! It's nothing fancy :) But I love citrus scents, they are my fave for smelling nice. Lavendar too.
While you are on this topic, what products do you use for body/face /hair/.. I know you said that you are going to tell us in an up coming video what you use to smell nice, so can you include these as well.. Thanks Jean
Hey Jean! I did a video on all of that over here! facebook.com/joyoushealth.ca/videos/10155044293943817/
I have stopped using perfume I simply use essential oils. I am looking forward to your perfume ideas. Thanks Joy
That's amazing! You are awesome, Chris! :)
I agree , cancer is something I worry a lot about. But I love perfume. I used to wear them everyday. Now I got so scared I stopped wearing it for the past 8 months.
Is it okay to wear them once a week?
Ideally I am searching for a pure sandal wood stick to make paste out of to apply on myself.
Wow I never knew that's why "fragrance" as an ingredient does disclose the ingredients comprising the fragrance. Thanks for that bit of information! Great video!
Mind blowing, isn't it?! Happy you enjoyed the video, Sarah!
SO interesting, thank you very much!
Happy you enjoyed it :)
Amazing thanks soo much.. I haven't used Cologne for years..
Very interesting. Worth watching. Thank you.
I use to wear perfume too, over the past few years of "greening" my life, perfume definitely went! I would use all those celebrity perfumes 😣 Now I use essential oils mixed with witch hazel as my "pefume" and some days I just use nothing! I can't stand all those crappy body sprays etc from cetain bath stores, even going in those stores gives me a headaches from all the smells! ! 🙈 great video Joy !
Oh ya me too! Those celebrity perfumes always used to get me!! Glad you enjoyed my video!
Hi Joy! Thanks for educating 😊 Good points!
Thanks so much for watching Dasha!
Comparing axe to a fragrance lol and 3000 chemicals? Sorry but that is over exaggerating number. I wear fragrance every day and I never had a problem. Wearing fragrance makes me less tolerable to foul smell. Starbucks is more dangerous than fragrance. Do you realize there's a reason why some fragrances stick longer to clothes because they use more fragrance oil and less alcohol? TThere's Hermes fragrances that only last 2 hours because the oils they use don't last longer than 2 or 3 hours? By the way, essential oils are chemicals. A normal person couldn't afford real lavender oil because it cost 3000 dollars per kilo
Very interesting video. Do you have a list of products you use everyday items
What kind of products are you referring to? :)
Super important info! Stopping with perfumes right now! Hoping it will help my skin because nothing else dose...
It definitely will! Many of my clients who have disposed of their toxic skin care or beauty care products have noticed their skin cleared up afterwards!
Grandma use to carry vanilla pods but sometimes she wore Maja, do you think carrying aromatic sachets is less harmful?
Cute! I think that just depends if it’s essential oil based or synthetic fragrance
My coworker wears essential oils and they burn my eyes and make me nauseous. She says I can’t be allergic because they are all natural and have no contamination. They are the higher end oils. Well , I am looking for a new job.
Oh you can definitely be sensitive or allergic to essential oils and they are not always natural. It really depends on the brand. Even if they are 100% natural you can still be sensitive or allergic. Hope it gets better!
Thank so much for this information. Please made part II
Glad you enjoyed it! :)
thank you so much for this! I knew perfumes and conventional shampoos, etc are not good for you, but have been slipping of late. thanks for the kick in the pants I needed! time to look for natural substitutes!
hbnpiano oh good! I realize you don't always think about the other products with fragrance but it's in everything!
How about those vegan and cruelty-free perfumes? Are they safe?
I'm looking forward to knowing how to make my own scents with essential oils. It is something I have been wanting to do and I'm so excited about your next video. I would love to see a video on essential oils. I'm just starting to use them, but have been confused if there's a difference with food grade essential oils and aromatherapy oils. I know nothing about these and don't know what to use when. If I'm making my own toothpaste do I need to use a food grade one? I know I would do so much more if I knew about the different ways to utilize essential oils. :)
Awesome! So I'm not big into essential oils to be honest. I know many people are crazy about them right now. I just use my faves like peppermint, grapefruit, tea tree etc. Hope you enjoy this next video. It will be coming out in 2 weeks. We still have to film it.
I know I will, thank you!!
Hey, I have just subscribed your channel and I am really enjoying your videos..I wanted to ask whether those attar perfumes are the same or different?I don't like those strong smell of deodorants and perfumes but I do like attar(with mild smell) though it gives me headache sometimes😅
Thanks so much Naeim! :) It depends on the ingredients - if attar contains ingredients like parfum or fragrance, I would recommend steering clear of those, especially if it gives you a headache from time to time. Essential oil bases natural perfumes would be a better option but it can still be irritating to some people, so just play close to attention to what you're reacting to and avoid as necessary!
Oh Joy, I can't wait for the other video! I'm addicted to perfume and would love to replace it for something vegan and more eco-friendly. Thanks for raising awareness of all these issues! Great video, as always
Every time I use my perfume I get a terrible headache and my wrists tingle and ache plus nausea so am going to throw it out. This was very informative!!:)
So glad you enjoyed it Mary!
Maybe try a perfume that isn’t cheap as shit.
Do you use dr.bronners soaps?:) would love to know what shampoo and conditioner you use as well!
I do! I like their hand soap. I also love Green Beaver's soap as well. I use Green Beaver shampoo and then whatever organic and natural conditioner is on sale, I'm not too picky with conditioner because I barely use it.
Thank you thank you thank you. I’m researching this topic and you are almost the only one on TH-cam talking about it 👍🏼😊
What shampoo brand do you use? Your hair looks very healthy.
Im a student at IHN. I do youtube on the side, maybe at the time I can do co op, maybe I can come help you out
Love it!! I kwew some info with fragrance et parfum but not that much!!! TY 🙏🏻
I STOP wearing it years ago ! Glad I did! I kwow I will never go back to it now!! 🤷🏻♀️
Glad to hear it!
such a nice information shared by you 💌
That's is a really great talk. My advice natural attars. They are expensive but just so good.
achilhi thanks! Glad you enjoyed the info!
Does perfume make a person smell bad ?
Hi Joy! When will you be making the video on how to use essential oils as a body scent?
It's still on my to-do list, but in the meantime, you can find a DIY perfume recipe here that uses essential oils :) www.joyoushealth.com/blogdetail.php?blogid=27032
Essential oils are bad for the skin and can cause sun irritation. Idk where she got the idea that they’re harmless lol
That got deep just for saying she doesn’t wear perfume 😂
It always helps to have evidence to back things up :)
Absolutely, even most expensive perfume / cologne I use (Guerlain’s Imperial for men or Creed Aventus or Very Valentino) you can not spray them on your skin only clothes and where your nose won’t be smelling it, because most of these, will cause what is called a reaction in the esophagus, the feeling is similar to a heartburn: (try it while spraying yourself in a car with closed windows and no a/c, you will see what I am saying) Also, for MEN your pheromones that would potentially attract women can be off, so keep this in mind when wearing something on your skin !💰is in your skin.
Good video, makes me wonder what nasties are in my favorite cologne.
Thank you! It's definitely worth looking into!
Another great video!
Thanks so much Fatima!
I find that oils make me feel sticky and although the fragrance is nice it doesn't stay, but the stickiness does.
Oh no. Maybe it's the brand of oils you're using? The scent of the essential oil won't stick around for a super long time but that's because there are no chemicals in it to prolong the scent, which is a good thing in my opinion :)
Joyous Health thanks maybe I'll keep trying other brands.
Just spray fragrances on your clothes and not your skin or buy fragrances with natural ingredients that you can find in niche brands like Creed for example, so you don't have to worry about the chemicals.
All great ideas! There are some good natural and clean brands out there. I prefer to just use essential oils. Thanks for the thoughts :)
Who told you Creed doesn’t use chemicals in their perfumes? Ha Ha.. Every single perfume, either designer or niche has lots of chemicals in it, no matter if it’s £ 40 or £ 400. Chemicals mixed with alcohol. In order to get 100 % natural you need a very deep pocket, a natural parfum usually costs over £500 for 1-3 ml and we’re not talking about Creed, we are talking about Ensar Oud, Sultan Pasha, Agarwood Assam.
@@alexs7758 Literally *everything* is a chemical. Water is a chemical
So true
@@alexs7758 My point is you tend to find more natural or higher quality ingredients in niche fragrances compared to designer fragrances because they are not producing fragrances for the typical masses. Also Creed used to use the highest quality ingredients because the founder was an expert at sniffing out quality fragrances even though the founders never really created the perfumes. It all got exposed in a book called The Ghost Perfumer.
I don't wear perfume either just roll on deodorant. The reason why is because I have a sensitive nose and too much scent gives me a headache/migrane. Plus when you buy perfume you have to finish it so if you're not going to use it often why get it. Plus I'm a picky person so if I go to the perfume shop for me to buy one I need to smell at least ten others and smelling that much perfume in a day just gives me a headache, makes me feel dizzy, and my nose tickle (making me want to sneeze ) plus they can be expensive.
Why do I need perfume anyways? I've taken a shower and I used my roll on , what else ....
so how do you treat your nails if u dont wear nail polish?
I still wear nail polish sometimes but there are cleaner brands out there that are "3-free" and "5-free". That being said nail polish even when it's a green beauty brand is still not the cleanest cosmetic out there but if you can avoid pthlalates and formaldehyde releasing chemicals then that's a great step in the right direction! Deborah Lippman, RMS are 2 brands I like.
My husband and I don't like perfume either. Best decision we've made in our lives. 👌
Happy to hear that!
I am new subscriber.
thank u so much for this info. you are amazing.
i have a question :
what do u think abt oil fragance ?
This video is very intresting. Thank you and a big thanks to your husband. The cameraman :)
Thank you for subscribing! I think it really depends on the quality of the essential oil. So you really have to do your research when it comes to buying fragrance that claims it's only essential oil based. I use this as a my perfume! www.joyoushealth.com/24129-product-lavender-deodorant-cream It's my deo cream, but I put it on the insides of my write too because I love the smell of it and the natural oils are perfect for applying it to my skin.
Joyous Health
Thank you so very much. Keep up the wonderful things u are doing.
My husband used Axe too and the same thing happened to me. I stopped buying that for him.
Glad to hear he's off the Axe!
Thank u for this. I live in a basem not apartment with no windows in my bedroom and every time I spray my perfume I feel nauseous and paranoid. Do you recommend air purifiers? Do u have suggestions n how to improve the air quality in such an apt? I am definitely going to stop using perfume!
Yes air purifiers are great but there's no guarantee they will remove all the chemicals from perfume but they will remove pet dander, dust etc. The one I have says it removes VOCs etc but that's not proven.
Daniella S ya
So scary! Thanks for the great info!
My pleasure. Thank you for watching!
I stopped using perfume as well, i threw out all my 20 high end perfumes. I noticed now that ive stopped using them ive became sensitive and actually get headaches if i walk into a perfume department or when someone sprays it. I switched over to Pacifica because i think they are a way better alternative for those special occasions. How do you feel about Pacifica?
I am familiar with Pacifica but they still list "fragrance" as an ingredient. If they are willing to disclose all their ingredients then you could evaluate them to see if they are free from hormone disrupting ingredients.
Ps. good for you for getting rid of the chemical filled perfumes!
Could’ve just sold em🤷🏻♂️
@@SlightlySteven So they can harm other people? Not very ethical is it now? Better to toss and do no harm in my opinion.
Oh no, glad to hear that Walker Axed the Axe! ;)
Haha me too!
Also replace deodorant with natural alaun, I think it’s alum stone in english
Oh right the deodorant salt rock. I'm not sure about those as they can contain trace amounts of aluminum. I would recommend getting an aluminum-free natural deodorant instead. We have a couple options in the Joyous Shop: www.joyoushealth.com/shop?&productcatid=2&productsubtype=Deodorant
Jeremy Fragrance disagrees.
What about attar? Middle eastern oil perfumes?
I'm not too familiar with attar but as long as it doesn't contain "parfum" or "fragrance" (or any other funky ingredients) and is essential oil based, it should be okay :)
I wish more people may watch this video and consider seriously the usage of fragrances. Not only in perfumes cosmetics, but also in cleaning products (for your wash or house chores) or wax candles, maybe naively used to create a "feel good" sensation.
Our society has arrived to a point that, literally speaking in english, we do not "use" a perfume but we "wear" it as a piece of cloth, and without it? Are we "naked"?
Unfortunately, whenever you make notice this issue with fragrances, not everybody is ready to take you seriously.
Please, stay sure to clean yourself with water and marselie soap, use deodorant when you perform with other persons, but consider those health issues too: If you do not live those difficulties on your skind (literally), it remains hard to understand. This dark side is SCARY to live, but I count on the sensitivity of others too 🙏🙏🙏
Coco mademoiselle makes me feel quite happy.
I know what you mean. It was hard to stray from the perfumes that I loved in the past, but it was one of the best things I could've done for my health!
My daughter and I were just laughing at the new poison girl perfume every one she walks by gets sick I think it was a Dior commercial. I definitely have alot of those symptoms . When I was a teenager I would douse myself in perfume for years. Now I can barley go past the soap isle in the store.🌞💛💛💛💛💛💛💛🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞
Haha! Hilarious. It's funny how the scent becomes so irritating once you eliminate it from your life!
all those "cleaning products" are way less potent than stuff as simple as baking soda,and also are designed to get as many people as sick as possible,to go buy drugs
its beyond me how can people be so stupid not to see this
Waiting for your next video ...
When will you put that recipe 😶
Great video. I suffer terribly from reactions to other people's perfumes. Now I have the ammunition I need to try to dissuade them from wearing perfume. Thank you.
My pleasure!
You can add bath and body works products to high chemicals and toxins being released into our body and into the environment. I always thought it was just me sensitive to many products but it was my body trying to tell me, scream at me that it does not like those chemicals and toxins! Thank you also for sharing.
Yes, very true! Glad you're feeling better Barb! :)
Essential oils can also be dangerous. There was a story about a daycare where the kids were manifesting all kinds of weird neurological symptoms because of an essential oil diffuser that was being used.😮
what about wall flowers or room spray?
I would advise against both as they both contain harmful chemicals that contribute to bodily toxicity and disrupt hormones. Diffusing natural essential oils would be a great alternative though!
I have over 40 bottles - almost all of them are full...YIKES!
Donate them? :)
Listen to the lady with the bangs.
Thats right...synthethic perfume is toxic...i love natural perfume and i want to show how usefull is that to iranian people
This make me want to turn my perfumes to Room& Linen Sprays
YT is getting too comfortable with this unskippable ads.
people can make theyre own perfume too. at least youll know whats in it.
You say you can use essential oils, that is a lot of what the fragrance consists of. Seconded only to alcohol. The ‘chemicals’ which you claim there can be up to 3000 different varieties of all packed into a bottle. This is simply not the case. Overly misleading as the average is 14/15. Furthermore these chemicals are used in the minutest of quantity’s. You make a point of loving the planet so that’s why you don’t use perfume. How about you stop driving your car. Stop using electricity. Your cooker etcetera. All of these examples would be much better in regards to the environment if you was to cease using them.
Unless it states essential oils in the ingredient list, fragrance actually contains synthetic ingredients and there can be anywhere upwards of 3000 different chemicals in the making of one signature scent. Wearing perfume isn't supporting my health in any way so it makes sense, for me at least, to go without it.
Joyous Health. No, the fragrance notes aren’t synthetic. That’s the case with cheap perfume. In antiperspirant/deodorant, there can probably be upwards of 3000 I don’t know because I don’t care about that. In a bottled fragrance that is packaged in a glass bottle will not contain upwards of 3000 chemicals. If it’s in a pressurised can, it Probably will contain that. However If its a perfume with an atomiser and costs more than £40 it would not be bad for your health. It wouldn’t cause difficulty to breath because it would be oils. The stock photos which you use infer that it is the quality fragrances that cause this catastrophic damage to absolutely everything. It’s not; not at all.
H M-N have you even looked at the ingredients list of the perfumes you use?! Like ya it has essential oils but also has a lot of chemicals with it for it to smell a certain way and last..
No one has got time to count 3000 different chemicals in order to make a Perfumes- companies would make a loss. Think about it! Do you even know how Perfumes are made?? Haha
I don’t wear perfume because the strong smell...... Someone was wear a strong perfume in the car It made my stomach hurt and...... I feel like not living....I didn’t know what to do but wan I saw this video I know what was wrong with me Thanks joyous
4:26
Too bad this is not going to change how much I like my perfumes...Will just spray it onto my clothes instead of skin
I understand they can be hard to let go of, but maybe you could try just saving it for special occasions for now and start introducing more natural essential oil based options?
Me too!
Awsome video
true but you can find perfumes that are 100% natural ingredients. Don't totally steer people away from the chance to smell things they would have to fly thousands of miles just to get a wiff of. For instances, Oud wood and Sandalwood.
I've stopped wearing perfume for religious reasons (Islam) ..the ruling is that a woman must not wear perfume and pass by men so that they smell her...I can wear it if I'm around women and girls but I can never garrantee that in my day I won't have to go out and some strange man won't pass me by or some street vendor won't smell my scent if the perfume is still on me so it was easier to go without...but I must say I kinda miss wearing it
Well the reality is that perfume blocks your own natural pheromones so in theory you will be MORE attractive without perfume! However, your endocrine system thanks you for not wearing perfume!!
I am having all these symptoms, acne on the ears, suffocation, nausea, headache, desorientation from perfume at work. At home I feel fine, no perfume here, no laundry with scent. I can't wear clothes with scent or laundry scent, it really bothers the brain. You feel the perfume in the air the mist, it floats in the air, and your feel sprinkling in your eyes pin needle and burning. I had to seek legal intervention. The person with the perfume is just like a mobile air freshener, whenever the person moves any part of the body even seated, the perfume activates in the air, it's horrible. The symptoms can be severe, mild, medium depending on what type of perfume. One day I was in a store, and I kept running away from one person, and she kept coming towards me while she was exploring the store, and I kept moving opposite direction. I approached her and I said "what are you wearing, is that laundry detergent, what's the name?" I wanted to know the name of the real poison. So I said: If you knew how this smell, you would never wear this, do you have children at your home, do you have pets, don't wear this. You will keep people away from you. She got terrified and she was so glad that I told her the smell causes repulsion on other people. I said water and non scent soap is enough to keep fresh. I used the non scent Dove bar soap. Whenever I go to the grocery store, it's the most sold in the shelf and the other poison one stay on the shelf. The body wash I use is the Ocean breeze by Suave, it's very mild scend and my body does not complain and the smell does not stay, that's another product that leaves the shelf first, sometimes ran out. When you are at work just observe the people with perfume, if you and other start sneezing, coughing, tearing eyes, difficult breathing, it's not flu, it's the damned poison perfume.
Do you have any information on "natural fragrance" ?
The word natural actually isn't regulated so it doesn't imply that it's clean or free of chemicals and the word fragrance can contain up to hundreds of different ingredients or chemicals, so I would recommend steering clear of natural fragrance as well.
I might sound weird but I just put dried lavender mint woods ... in my closet and I always smell fresh all time
@@itshalo837 where do you get them?
@@7cstair93 Etsy for the most part
Yes I have asthma and am the same way
I get headaches from perfumes.
Ahhhhh! I must admit, giving up my perfume is so tough....I LOVE perfume...but I know every time I wear one of mine, I sneeze like crazy and get a massive headache! Sad-face...Joy, I was wondering, do you wear essential oils or an essential oil based perfume?
It's definitely tricky, but what I suggest is to just start scaling back gradually! If you wear it everyday, wear it every other day and eventually scale down to special occasions only.
I have a DIY essential oil-based perfume that I make and use from time to time. I'll be sharing that video soon :)
Awesome! Thanks Joy! Looking forward to your next video
So glad you enjoyed it Tara!
I know some people who wear perfume every day including to bed 😬
FACTS THANKU NO MORE
Yesterday will be the last day I have ever put on perfume! Not to mention the money this would save everyone! I already threw away all of my chemically skin and makeup products yesterday after learning how bad they all were. Probably 90% of them had "parfum/fragrance" along with at least 3 other ingredients detrimental to our health. I'd been using all of them on a regular basis.. some for over 5 years. Its so crazy to me that companies are actually allowed to sell this shit. Sorry but having my fake tan on fleek (is that how its spelled? lol) and hair formed into perfect ringlets all day everyday, is not worth slowly giving myself cancer/ sabotaging my health I work so hard to have in every other way. Thank you so much for sharing
You are amazing! Good for you girl! It's not easy at first, especially when these things were such a staple in our daily routine but you'll notice such a difference once you eliminate them from your life :) Proud of you!
Joy, do you know the brand Shea Moisture? I'm from US and I'm a fan of it, but would be awesome to here your opinion!! 😘
I'm not too familiar with it, Roberta! If you hop on to ewg.org or download the Think Dirty app, you can usually check to see what kind of ratings it has on it and whether the ingredients in it are safe or harmful.
What do I do with my old perfumes? I feel bad throwing it away to sit in a landfill. Any ideas?
That's a great question! There are depots across the country where you can drop off your toxic products to be disposed of safely. You can find out more about that over here: www.davidsuzuki.org/what-you-can-do/queen-of-green/faqs/cleaning/how-to-dispose-of-household-hazardous-waste/
You also look a lot heathier than most people that wear them, so good for you.
Omg I just bought 10 bottles of perfumes. I feel guilty.
Crazy Asian Dude 🤣🤣🤣
and be careful with your animals too, don't spray air freshener in your home or those poison laundry scent. OMG, it's a killer.
Why are you shouting?
Yi Le you have a volume button, maybe it’s up too high 😊
Lol...immediately laughed at your comment, I thought she was too. You can tell if you were in a room with her she'd be the loud one.
Hahaha soo loud your right dam girl just relax annoying
so sorry you can't wear fragrances, I love them and enjoy the wonderful fragrances.
It's more of a personal choice actually :) I wrote about it over here: www.joyoushealth.com/27084-blog-5-reasons-i-don-t-wear-perfume
I feel like small hedeak but only when i smell too close. Vut i love cologns i wear it every day
It is much important how u eat then cemicals in TESTED PRODUCTS
Fragrances/perfumes have no long term tests on humans. They do test them on animals like rabbits for acute reactions (burning etc) but that is only to mitigate liability and is irrelevant to how the chemical affects a human who accumulates the chemicals in the body through skin absorption. No one actually has any idea how the chemicals could be affecting us and the possibility that they are responsible for any number of symptoms and diseases/toxicity will always be present until the tests are done. But the industry is extremely wealthy and will resist any attempt to test the long term health effects.
There are plenty of companies that use natural ingredients that are likely much safer for human exposure.
good for you !! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻......I WEAR PERFUME AND LOVE IT, and good for me
Coco Love haha, own it girl.
I love perfume, and I love smell good every day. I dont go out from my house if I dont spray perfume. You are boring. Human smell is awfull smelling. No thanks!
Elin Almberg “human smell is awful smelling”, well if you smell bad, then you might want to consider doing a detox. I think that’s a big part of the reason people drown themselves in cologne or perfume, is that they don’t smell good. Fragrance also masks our natural pheromones which are super important to be attracted to someone from a biochemical perspective. Something to think about for sure!
+Elin Almberg "You are boring." People aren't here for your amusement hon. Only children and people with tiny brains need clowns to entertain them. Note that your perfume gives plenty of people headaches and smells like caustic sewage to half the people forced to smell it. Cheers.
You are like the highest level of stupidity a person can achieve,but dont worry there are lots of people like you lol
HUMAN SMELL IS BORING LOL imagine how stupid and degraded you have to be to tell this,before toxic chemicals were put in small bottles there was a thing known as pheromones
but uneducated people like u wont ever know what that is
I value my ability to breathe but perfume and cologne make my throat and lungs burn really bad to the point where just breathing is agonizing. I end up struggling to breathe as a result so I'd take human smell over perfume or cologne any day
