johnson and johnson natural products...
So today I seen in the RCSS flyer J&J came out wiht a new line of all natural baby shampoo, lotion and babywash...
Introducing Natural Made Gentle, the New Line of Gentle, Natural Baby Care Products from the JOHNSON?S® Brand | Johnsons Baby
has anyone tried it? The price seems right, but I dunno... I have such a bad feeling about J&J in general...

Yea, their sh*t is toxic I would enver in a million years use their regular line.
But to give them the bennefit of the doubt, I took a peek a book at the CSDB. So looking at this line on EWG for the ingredients in the new line... The bracketed numbers are the score they got on EWG's Cosmetic Saftey Database.
Johnsons Natural Body Lotion

- Water
- Glycerin (2)
- Glyceryl Laurate (3)
- Glycine Soja (Soybean) Oil (1)

- Cetearyl Alcohol (1)
- Sodium Stearoyl Lactylate (0-1)

Johnsons Natural Head to Toe body wash and baby shampoo are the EXACT SAME!!!!

We use Burt's Bees lotion on DD and Dove baby wash. I know the Dove probably isn't the best out there but she reacts to EVERYTHING and it seems to be the only one so far that she hasn't reacted to. She had HORRIBLE itchy rash from J&J original and lavender scented body washes. I'd like to use more Burt's Bees stuff but it's often quite out of our price range.

I just avoid worrying about all this stuff by never bathing my children.
