Sensitive Skin? Don’t Worry.

Millions of women everywhere are plagued by skin so sensitive that they’re limited to using certain products, to deter the risk of possibly having a reaction. Even perfumes can become a bit of a problem for women with sensitive skin.

I know, how awful. Perfume is one of the greatest parts of dressing up. A signature scent allows people to remember you, in a good way. In 2011, 2.8 billion dollars were spent on fragrances alone. 2.8 billion.

Such a lucrative business was sure to develop a perfume made just for sensitive skinned women, and Lavanila Laboratories has done the trick. According to the lab, 20 percent of people can’t wear synthetic fragrances due to the chemicals they’re composed of.

The creator of this line of perfumes was a victim to sensitive skin herself, so she decided to create a fragrance that smelled as amazing as synthetic fragrances, but this one is a bit different. It leaves out petrochemicals, phthalates, propylene glycol, mineral oils, silicone, synthetic dyes, sulfates and parabens. Woah.

This line of fragrances comes in a number of scents: Pure Vanilla, Vanilla Coconut and Vanilla Blackberry. Not only does this company market fragrances, they also sell natural deodorant, SPF 40 sunscreen, baby body wash, wish more to come in 2013.
