If you are already a Tribal Mama, you know how bath products can be toxic for both you and your baby.  But where to start?  PEG-100?  Polysorbate 80?  Sodium Lauryl Sulfate? Or... Sodium Laureth Sulfate?

No need for a panic attack.  Here are three simple places to start weeding your baby bath products (and Mama beauty stuff!).

I just LOVE this brand.  BABYBEARSHOP's products have healed and cleansed my body naturally for two years now.  I am super picky about what to put on my body.  If it can't go in my body, it doesn't go on my body.  My exception to this rule is essential oils in the right proportions for its use.  Ya definitely can't eat them all, but using them on the skin is great.  This brand does both.  It has only organic oils and the right proportion of organic essential oils.  The company is vegan-certified, which is an extremely difficult certification to obtain.
