In a world where hygiene products are often laden with fragrances and chemicals, the quest for gentle, effective, and safe personal care solutions can feel downright daunting. Fresh Peaches inspires confidence that a personal hygiene product can provide the deep clean you’re looking for while leaving behind the toxic ingredients you’re not.

Fragrance in Hygiene Products: Less is More

Many common household items and hygiene products are infused with fragrances that can disrupt the natural balance of your skin and hormones. Whether fragrances are synthetic or claim to be natural, they can cause irritation or allergic reactions. Even products labeled “unscented” often use fragrances to accomplish that neutral scent.

Are Natural Fragrances Safe?

Fragrances marketed as "natural" can still contain synthetic components or undergo processes that deface their natural essence. Here are some examples:

Natural Essential Oils: While derived from plants, essential oils can be processed or diluted with synthetic carriers, altering their purity.

Fragrance Oils: Some brands label fragrance oils as natural, but these often include synthetic ingredients alongside natural extracts.

Vanillin: While it can be extracted from vanilla beans, it’s frequently made synthetically from guaiacol or lignin.

Citrus Oils: These are often combined with synthetic stabilizers or solvents to enhance their shelf life, compromising their "natural" status.

When seeking truly natural fragrances, it’s essential to read ingredient labels carefully and look for certifications or transparency from brands. By sticking to fragrance-free options when considering toilet paper alternatives you eliminate the risk of adverse reactions, treating your bum to the gentle touch it deserves.

FAQ

What is witch hazel?

Witch hazel is a plant native to North America often used for its medicinal properties which are primarily derived from its bark and leaves. The astringent, anti-inflammatory, and soothing properties of witch hazel can help treat skin irritations, reduce swelling, and alleviate conditions like acne or hemorrhoids.

What is hypoallergenic?

The term "hypoallergenic" refers to products or substances that are less likely to cause an allergic reaction. While no product can guarantee to be completely free of allergens, hypoallergenic items are formulated to minimize the risk of irritations or allergic reactions.

Are Fragrances safe?

Fragrances in products can be safe for many people, but they can also be potential irritants or allergens especially for anyone with sensitive skin or specific allergies. While ingredient labels tell us if a product has fragrances, they often don’t divulge the details of what components make up those scents. It’s difficult to know for certain what chemicals and compounds are used in products that use fragrance.
