Bad reaction to soap- Opinions and help?!

I have noticed that the vinegar smell goes away unless it gets in hair. So avoid putting it near your hair and you shouldn't smell. I wash my body first then wash my hair just to make sure I don't get any in my hair. But your bathroom will STINK. So make sure your loved ones are ok with it. And be careful because it makes your tub slippery as hell. Worst then oil. So warn people in your household to be careful too. Good luck.
So glad you liked it Melody. :)
I have had the same experience with different products myself. Unfortunately, just because its vegan/cruelty free doesn't mean they don't use fragrances or other chemicals to create a certain smell. Kiss My Face and Lush does a lot of that and ranks moderately hazardous on the Cosmetics Database: http://www.cosmeticsdatabase.com/. Many Dove soaps are made without fragrance, so if you're looking for another brand, just don't buy anything that contains it. I know both Suki and Coastal Classic Creations do a great job of this, and are also organic and cruelty free at the same time. Hope this helps!
That's the reason why I changed product from vegan to minerals. Have been using it for a month now and I have enjoyed how my skin looks right now.
By the way, these minerals are harvested from Hungarian thermal-waters.
I am a US rep for Olivier Soaps which is out of Canada and all their products are 100% natural and made with organic, raw materials. They have soaps for people with super sensative skin, babies and men. You can check out their web site at www.oliviersoaps.com or you can e-mail me directly at michellec-rep@oliviersoaps.com for more information. I can even send you a sample of the fragrance free soap (sensative skin/dry skin) or Jasmin and Lavendar soap (Sensative skin). Just e-mail me and let me know you interested. My daughter (who is now 2 yrs old) use to get rashes and terrible dry skin all the time and I searched high and low for a "natural", gentle soap and could not find anything that she didn't react too. My husband is Canadian and his Mom sent me the Olivier Baby Soap and that did it. She has not had a problem since. I was hooked! I swear by these products now. You can even check out their safety rating on www.cosmeticsdatabase.com.
