Article: Avoid Colourants

It is wise to avoid synthetic colours. They are only used to make the products look appealing to the consumer and can cause allergic skin reactions; some even contain heavy metals and are carcinogenic.

Avoid the following:

     Blue 1 (E133)
     Green 3 (E142)
     D&C Red 33 (E127)
     FD&C Yellow 5 (E102)
     FD&C Yellow 6 (E110)

Natural and even nutrient rich colours can be found in avocado, pumpkin seed oil or chlorophyll (green), azulene from chamomile (blue) and rosehip or calendula oils (golden orange), but the colours will not be as vibrant and will change/fade with light and oxygen.

Organic Babies and Organic Children's products do not contain any synthetic colourants and are not only gentle and safe to use, but also leave skin feeling wonderfully soft and nourished.
