Enchanted Sweet Scents

I like All Natural Products, is Enchanted Potions all natural? True: all natural products would contain no preservative and would require special handling such as refrigeration or storage in a cool dark place. True: all natural bath products, like natural food products would spoil after a few days or weeks and would actually become dangerous to your health. So no, Enchanted Potions does not make all natural products because we add preservatives for your protection to our products. Except for the preservatives however, we do our best to create our potions with only the finest vegetable and food based items available. Below is a sample ingredients list taken from a bath and body product that claims to be all natural.

deionzied mineral water, sodium laureth sulfate, coconut betaine,
coconut MEA, polyquaternium 10, EDTA, aloe, marshmallow, ivy pellitory root, cucumber, elder flower, arnica, vegetable glycerin, citric acid,
ylang ylang essential oil.
 

The above example illustrates how anyone can claim their product is all natural when in reality it is not. Sodium Laureth Sulfate is a common synthetic detergent (manmade) used to enhance the foam factor in many soaps and shampoos…not natural. The above ingredients listing is mostly natural but not 100% natural as the producer claims.

Ok…so Enchanted Potions products aren’t natural but are they tested on animals? No, Enchanted Potions NEVER tests on our four legged friends, we prefer to use 2 legged family and friends as our guinea pigs.

Enchanted Potions Lotion Vs. Many Name Brand Lotions: So what is the difference and why purchase our lotion when you can buy lotion locally and get it quicker? Your body will thank you, that’s why. Many name brand lotions sold in department stores contain Mineral Oil. Mineral Oil is petroleum based (think crude oil you put in your car) Do you really want that on your skin? The mineral oil is why your favorite lotion feels so greasy on your skin, the greasier, the more mineral oil. Our lotion contains Vegetable and nut oils that are friendly to your skin. They are nourishing to your skin and you won’t feel that greasy residue because your skin will absorb these oils and actually use them to help your skin, not just hide the dryness problem.

Essential Oils Vs. Fragrance Oils: This is a common question our customers ask, what’s the difference? Fragrance oils are man made (synthetic) allowing for more variety in the scents you can order your favorite products in, like Tommy or Amber Romance. Essential Oils are oils that are distilled directly from plants, flowers, roots, bark and so on. Essential Oils can be extracted from the host by a variety of methods including steaming, pressing and distillation. Depending on the production method used, fragrance oils are generally used by teaspoons while Essential Oils, because they are so much stronger than fragrance oils, are measured in drops.

Essential oils, if not used correctly can be dangerous to certain individuals with different medical conditions (including but not limited to pregnancy or heart problems) It is VERY important that if you're seeking the advice of an aromatherapist you are sure of his/her background. Unfortunately, many so called certified aromatherapy experts are people who have given themselves the title, there are no recognized aromatherapy certification programs in the U.S. The person you are dealing with might actually know a whole lot about the oils they are recommending or they might be faking it to get your money, be careful! ALWAYS CHECK WITH YOUR DOCTOR BEFORE ABOUT ANY AROMATHERAPY PROGRAM GIVEN TO YOU. Enchanted Potions staff has no aromatherapy certification and relies on knowledge collected over the years from working with various oils. Enchanted Potions essential oils are not intended to diagnose or treat any ailments or conditions you may have. You should always speak with your doctor about any alternative healing methods you are considering.

Body Safe Fragrance Oils: Enchanted Potions uses only cosmetic grade body safe fragrance oils that are skin friendly and Essential Oils in limited quantities. Should you ever have ANY kind of reaction to any of our products you should discontinue use and notify us immediately so that we can research the problem. When purchasing products from any bath and body business be sure to ask if the fragrances are skin safe. Many fly by night bath and body businesses use Potpourri oil to scent their products. Potpourri oil may irritate and in extreme cases burn your skin. Know what you are buying!

Do you sell Tear-Free Shampoo?  Tear-free products contain a chemical that inhibits tear production in tear ducts.  Prolonged use of such chemicals could permanently damage the tear ducts.  Because this is the body’s natural & healthy response to rid the eyes of foreign substances, we will never sell any products with such chemicals added.
