Have you tried any of the natural shampoos? I got two tiny sample bottles of Burt's Bees shampoo back at Christmas and they seemed to work well enough. I just use Organix normally, which also has less of the harsh chemicals, but I don't know if it's gentle enough for you or not.

Yes, Burt's Bees is a terrific line of products, shampoos and everything else as well! My father's skin was damaged by the sun from all his years as a pilot (Army), and when I got him to try Burt's Bees Baby Bee Buttermilk Lotion, he just loved it. He used it on his face, too... it's very mild (meant for babies), and it also smells wonderful. Bet you'd like it!

I like the Jāsön products. There's also a hemp soap by Mountain Sky that you can use on your hair and skin and I like it a lot! (It also reduces waste because there's very little packaging.)

The best soap IMO is Dove for sensitive skin. I have eczema on my hands, and contact dermatitis, and perfume and chemical sensitivities and Dove is wonderful and non-irritating.

Burt's Bees products smell terrible to me! They have a carrot face cream that makes me gag when I smell it, but that's probably just me!
