Eco Princess - The Natural Alternative to Toxic Kid's Lotion

There are deadly, cancer-causing chemicals in baby care products like lotions and bath bubbles. It's not just scare tactics or hype, it's a real concern among mothers of young children. Although some baby product companies claim their products contain "below the acceptable level" of harmful ingredients, isn't it possible that repeated exposure over several years can increase the risk for cancer? Most moms, including California mom Tara Verkuil, don't want to take that chance.

That's why she created EcoPrincess, a children's line of natural and organic bathtime products and play makeup designed just for kids and the environment. 

EcoPrincess has just released a collection of body lotions for kids to protect and nourish their delicate, sensitive skin. EcoPrincess Body Lotion is 100% natural, paraben-free, phthalate-free, sulfate-free, toxin-free, Vegan/Cruelty-free, and uses only the best sustainably-sourced organic ingredients.

Ingredient Highlights:

1) Aloe Vera Leaf Juice - moisturizes without leaving the skin greasy and helps treat dry/flaky skin.

2) Sunflower Seed Oil - High in vitamins A, C and D to protect the skin of infants whose skin is more susceptible to skin infection and disease.

3) White Tea Leaf Extract - Repairs skin and enhances the skin's immune system

4) Spirulina Platensis (algae) Extract - Fights free radicals

Available in three scents: Lavender, Vanilla, and Unscented.

My Thoughts

I love finding new organic products for my family and I recently came across a great little company called Eco Princess. Their skin care products are made with only natural and organic ingredients. They were nice enough to send me a bottle of their Lavender Body Lotion to try out.  I have really enjoyed using this lotion for my daughter.  It goes on evenly and leaves her skin feeling rose-petal soft.  The cream is gentle enough to use even on sensitive skin. She loves the pretty purple bottle with the crown and likes to keep in on her princess vanity because it matches so well.  The lotion goes on smooth and has no greasy residue. It comes in a nice squeeze bottle for easy access. The lavender scent is light and refreshing. It's perfect for little princesses, but it  works well enough that I could use it on my own skin. It's also cruelty free which is very important to me and my family.

The Eco Princess products come in three fantastic scents in including lavender, vanilla, and unscented. There are tons of organic products out there for babies and adults, buts it's hard to find something in the middle for kids what aren't babies anymore but who also aren't quite ready for adult lotions. Eco Princess fits the bill. It's perfect for girls as young as pre-school but even tweens will enjoy it.
