Hahahaha...and Geraniol, Limonene, and Linalool, organic or not, can be irritating. Oh, and "Parfum is the third ingredient. Nifty.

Hi Harpa, Hopefully, I won't forget - I have the Olympics fever. However, I am using acure organics Marula oil which is very nice. It does absorb quickly and the container (glass) is UV protected. It's hard to believe but I did not like GOW's Marula oil. Too thick and did not absorb quickly. That is the only product from GOW thus far that I have not liked. The one on tonight sounds like fragrance to me. We should hear a lot of "smells so good." Yes, the vendors nd hosts will sy just about anything to sell the product. Sometimes it is funny to listen to them. I hope you are doing well, Harpa.

Well, they never claimed it was all natural, but they did use "natural" and "naturally" 9 times! You know, driving home a point! Man, you really have to know what you're doing, or you'll be sucked into anything! Smiley Happy

I'm doing peachy, and can't wait until the snow melts, but I know it's not just yet.

I hope you are doing well, too, Kat! Do you have snow on the ground where you are like we have here on the east coast?

(Hi, Suzy!) I was hoping they'd mention which essential oils were in the other things. Though, I'm not against essentials in skin care as some are.

Harpa, We have over a foot of snow on the ground. It was snowing here about every other day & the most we had fall in one storm was about 6 in. or so. I live in the Chicagoland area. Very cold weather like -27 (regular temp without wind chill) in one of our towns. It's about 2 degrees right now but warming up to 20 today (heat wave, literally). LOL

Back to "Natural" -- that is definitely one word that is over used and misused. However, you can't fool the "Beauties" on this board. Enjoy the rest of your week. I am still using oxygen when I exert myself but it beats needing it constantly. I believe that we will really welcome & love Spring this year. I look forward to seeing the crocus pop up but love the tulips & daffodils.
