]]>I still think there are better options, but Mustela has indeed removed those ingredients:)
]]>I’m actually not into the ingredients, which is why I’ve chosen not to carry this in our online store.
]]>Thank you for your prompt response!
]]>Wash with Water is made by a fellow Vermont momma and yes, it’s Good Stuff!

Hi Makayla, I too am desperately trying to find the best products for my baby girl (due April ’17) the only thing I have settled on is a 100% raw coconut oil as a moisturizer (The Leaning Tree Amazon) I am also in the UK. I feel like I am going round in circles with wash products, I have just purchased babo botanicals moisturizing baby shampoo & wash with oatmilk & calendula which I managed to find on Amazon due to product being available in the US. It arrived today so I began to research each ingredient and I am extremely disappointed to find one of the ingredients ‘Sodium Methyl Cocoyl Taurate’, only the 4th ingredient on the list packaging is something called a Nitrosating Agent which has been determined to form cancer in laboratory animals. it then goes on to state there are wide concerns in the USA & Europe about the use of these agents in cosmetics. I found this information on a website called http://www.miessence.com. I obviously can’t verify this information in anyway but it has most definitely put me off using this particular brand… so my search goes on… I hope this has helped… Leesa x
]]>California Baby Shampoo & Body Wash, Calendula
Thank You
]]>I have a 5 year old and baby on the way 🙂
Wonderful site and great info!
Thank you!
Is there an update on Nature’s Gate Nature Baby vegan shampoo and wash? I have been using one that does not seem to have any SLS, and the fragrance is said to be naturally derived.
]]>Yes we love this product! And carry it here: https://gimmethegoodstuff.org/store/acure-organics-bare-baby-4-in-1-foamer/
]]>Thanks in advance!
]]>I need to look into this one–will do!
]]>I don’t know this one, but will add to my list for a future investigation.
]]>I think it’s fine.
]]>What about shea moisture Raw Shea Chamomile & Argan Oil Baby Head-To-Toe Wash & Shampoo?
]]>Yes, this product is Good Stuff:).
]]>Meadowsweet (Spiraea Ulmaria) Flower Extract,
Black Currant (Ribes Nigrum) Absolute,
Orange (Citrus Aurantium) Oil,
Grapefruit (Citrus Grandis) Oil.
I haven’t researched this brand, but will add to my list for future investigation!
]]>Nope, that’s just baking soda:).
]]>Eh, this has a lot of sythentics although none of them is particularly bad. Just an FYI, we do now ship to Canada:).
]]>https://www.avril.ca/boutique/fr/gel-lavant-et-shampoing-naturels-pour-bebe-2.html

Many thanks !
]]>Hi there! I don’t know any brands off the top of my head, but if you send me something you like, I’m happy to weigh in!
]]>When it comes to moisturizing, I would recommend the Babo shampoo listed above.
]]>Thanks
]]>There is nothing so bad in this list, but it’s definitely not all natural–or organic.
]]>I found the ingredient list:
Organic Aloe Vera Juice, Natural Sodium Cocoamphoacetate (and) Glycerin (and) Lauryl Glucoside (and) Sodium Cocoyl Glutamate (and) Sodium Lauryl Glycol Carboxylate, Organic Glycerin, Natural Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate, Natural Hydroxypropyl Starch, Natural Behenamidopropyl Dimethylamine, Natural Fragrance, Phenethyl Alcohol (and) Caprylyl Glycol (and) Trideceth-8, Panthenol, Natural Propyl Trimonium, Natural Collagen, Natural Guar Hydroxypropyltrimonium Chloride, Organic Argan Oil, Organic Apricot Oil, Organic Jojoba Oil
]]>Thank you!
]]>Shea Moisture, Earth Mama, Acure Organics, Honest, and Dr. Bronner’s brands can all be found at/ordered from Target.
]]>I don’t love Arbonne in general, but haven’t looked into their new baby line enough to give you a verdict. I do really love Acure’s baby stuff…
]]>The 7th Gen coconut care is Okay Stuff.
]]>Baby Mantra is fine (although definitely not 100% natural).
]]>I am also curious to know what you think of this product line. I have heard great things about using coconut oil.
]]>Thanks!
]]>Thank you so very much! I love your website and appreciate it greatly!
]]>Overall, no, nothing in this list is alarming. There is some contraversy around limonene and linalool (even when naturally occurring). In my own home, I would be fine using this product.
]]>i love your website, thank you so much!!
]]>Can you please tell me if any of these ingredients concern you? I’ve been using Weleda calendula shampoo for awhile and I just want to make sure it is safe for my baby: Water (Aqua), Coco-Glucoside, Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis (Sweet Almond) Oil, Alcohol, Disodium Cocoyl Glutamate, Sesamum Indicum (Sesame) Seed Oil, Glycerin, Carrageenan (Chondrus Crispus) Extract, Sodium Cocoyl Glutamate (Sodium Cocoyl Glutamate), Calendula Officinalis (Calendula) Flower Extract, Xanthan Gum, Lactic Acid, Fragrance (Parfum)*, Limonene*, Linalool*.
* from natural essential oils
Definitely better, and safe in my opinion:).
]]>Although this is not a list of all-natural or organic ingredients, I don’t see anything alarming. Not a huge fan of sodium benzoate in particular, but there are worse things…
]]>We consider California Baby Good Stuff (although it does contain sodium benzoate).
]]>I live in Canada and shipping these kinds of products from the US often means a lot of shipping charges. I know a Canadian website where I buy soap and deodorant for my husband and I, but none of your good stuff shampoo are to be found there!
I have found this one: Thinkbaby shampoo and body wash. What do you think of it? Thank you

]]>Yes, among other things. California Baby is good (but uses sodium benzoate), but Babyganics I consider Sneaky Stuff (not all their products, but you have to read every label, whereas Acure is across the board safe).
]]>Love your site & thanks!!!
Annie
If you visit our page here, you can read all the ingredients in this product: https://gimmethegoodstuff.org/store/babo-botanicals-berry-primrose-smoothing-shampoo-wash-/
]]>I don’t, no. There are lots of other, safer brands out there.
]]>Don’t know this brand, but will look into it!
]]>Don’t know this brand, but will look into it!
]]>Don’t know this one but will look into it!
]]>I think any CA Baby is safe for a newborn, but I would probably go with Super Sensitive. Less is more with newborns, so truthfully I would probably just use a very basic tallow bar soap (like this: https://gimmethegoodstuff.org/store/paleo-skincare-tallow-and-herb-soap-for-babies/)
]]>Looks like good stuff:)
]]>could you kindly advise on Rustic art organic baby shampoo, is it good stuff , bad or checky
http://www.firstcry.com/rustic-art/rustic-art-organic-baby-shampoo-100-ml/507134/product-detail
I don’t know this brand and will have to look into it!
]]>I am fine with both of these lines:)
]]>This is on par with other Seventh Gen products. Has some synthetics in it, so I wouldn’t say it would be my top choice, but overall nothing alarming.
]]>What about buds head to toe cleanser?
]]>Or Desert Essence Baby? (http://www.vitacost.com/desert-essence-organics-baby-2-in-1-gentle-foaming-hair-body-cleanser-oh-so-clean-fragrance-free)
I’ve personally loved other Desert Essence products, but I’m even more picky for my babies! 🙂
Thank you for the AWESOME site and reviews!!!
]]>Nature’s Gate is better than conventional products, but I’m not a big fan–nothing organic, lots of synthetics, phenoxyethanol, etc.
]]>Yes, and I’m not big fan unfortunately. Mostly because of the cocoamidopropyl betaine it contains.
]]>I haven’t done a comprehensive review of Melaleuca, in part because they don’t readily disclose any ingredients (in and of itself, huge red flag). I am fairly certain it will prove to be Sneaky Stuff, but don’t quote me on that just yet.
]]>Hi Maia!
Any updates on the Just Hatched Shampoo? Thanks!
]]>Nope, that’s just an internet rumor!
]]>Maia do you have any update on Melaleuca? Thank you.
]]>Yes, Little Twig is Good Stuff:)
]]>Honest has a black stripe on the bottom of their baby wash samples I got, I read the black stripe means it has chemicals in it! How do I find out if this is true?
]]>I was wondering if you know anything about the Little Twig products? I’d like to try the unscented baby wash, it seems safe. I don’t know though…it could be sneaky??
]]>Hi! Fragrances would definitely need to be listed on the Burt’s Bees label. The biggest concern is if it says simply “fragrance” or “parfum,” as that can mean dozens of undisclosed chemicals. But if you don’t see anything like this, you should be okay:). As for Baja, I don’t know that brand! I’ll look into them when we update the relevant guides, but in the meanwhile, a short list of ingredients sounds promising:).
]]>It has Limonene listed, but says its a ” Component of Natural Essential Oil”
I am not sure what that means, but I know ewg has Limonene listed as a 6.
I am looking for something that is tear free, I wanted to use Dr. Bronners baby until I got some in my eyes, and it was VERY painful.
***Ingredients For 100%Pure Extra Gentle Baby Shampoo
Aloe Barbadensis (Organic Aloe) Leaf Juice, Cocos Nucifera (Saponified Coconut) Oil, Vegetable Glycerin, Seaweed (Carrageenan) Extract, Quillaja Saponaria (Soap Bark) Extract, Lavandula Angustifolia (Lavender Hydrosol) Flower Water, Organic Anthemis Nobilis (Chamomile) Flower Extract, Vanilla Planifolia (Vanilla) Extract, Citrus Aurantium Dulcis (Orange Essential Oil), Lonicera Caprifolium Flower and Lonicera Japonica (Honeysuckle) Flower Extract, Citral*, Limonene* and Linalool*
* Component of Natural Essential Oil
https://www.100percentpure.com/collections/shampoo/products/extra-gentle-baby-shampoo
We also found a Burt’s Bees shampoo that is unscented, and doesn’t have limonene or any other fragrance listed in the ingredients. Do you think that’s ok, or would the fragrances not necessarily be listed?
Another one I didn’t see on your list is Baja Baby Gear. It’s unscented, with a very short ingredient list. Have you encountered this brand before? We’ve been using it for a while so I hope it’s not sneaky stuff :-\
]]>I’m not familiar with Baby Hugo but will add it to our list. 🙂
]]>I don’t know that one but will look into it!
]]>The tear free version ?
]]>Babo Products say sulfate free, but not paraben free – do you know if they contain parabens?
]]>Honestly, you could try just washing with water and then applying a detangler after bathtime. Otherwise, I don’t know of another shampoo that would be gentler on the eyes than CA Baby.
]]>It’s Okay. It contains a lot of the newer surfactants (which we THINK are better than SLS and SLES), and also has sodium benzoate. Wouldn’t be my top pick, but definitely better than conventional stuff.
]]>I would call Dapple Okay Stuff, and same with Attitude. They use a lot of synthetic ingredients, but seem to choose the ones with the best safety profiles. I have only looked briefly at the Sesame Street line, but looks like Sneaky Stuff to me.
]]>Arbonne doesn’t share all of their ingredients, so it’s hard to judge their products.
]]>Acure Organics baby line is probably the most affordable of the good stuff
]]>I don’t know this brand, but will check it out!
]]>Hi Andrea, and sorry for the delayed response on this! This product is okay…certainly not all natural and contains phenoxyethanol, which I don’t love, but better than conventional products for sure!
]]>I like Dolphin:)
]]>Yup!
]]>I don’t like that Cocamidopropyl Betaine is the surfactant they use.
]]>Green People is okay but not great (don’t like cocmidopropyl betaine in particular). I’ll have to look into Tropic! Thanks for the suggestions.
]]>Sure, I will add them to the list for future review. Thanks for the suggestion!
]]>I personally wouldn’t worry too much about using Honest products, even in light of the latest scandals. Ideally, however, we’d all be using stuff from smaller manufacturers where the supply chain for all ingredients is easier to follow.
]]>Yes, this is Good Stuff (you can see it reviewed here:https://gimmethegoodstuff.org/safe-product-guides/baby-wash/)
]]>Never mind. Just found your second bad tab. Thx!! Acure it is!
]]>http://www.giggle.com/giggle-shampoo-%26-body-wash—12-fl-oz./MS21372.html
Thanks!
]]>Hi Anna-
Original Sprout doesn’t disclose exactly what’s in their fragrance, and they also use some pretty bad ingredients, albeit in addition to a lot of good ones (example: cocamidopropyl betaine).
I’ve been in search of things that are also locally available in my area, and Original Sprout is one of them.
I also was unsure of their products and wanted to know are there particular ingredients that make Original Sprout just Okay and not Good Stuff?
I’m curious!
Thanks! 🙂
BTW – love your site – I use it to reference almost every product I use now and have become extremely conscientious of products that come in contact with my family!
]]>I actually am more worried about the cocamidopropyl betaine, a synthetic surfactant associated with allergic dermatitis.
]]>Thank you very much for your response and very thoughtful of you.
]]>Unfortunately, all of those ingredients in the end are not so great preservatives:(
]]>I think they also have a kids line called Koala Pals.
]]>Hello Ma’am,
Thank you very much for the reply. I don’t have any labels but I found the links which list the ingredients.
Here they are:

]]>Thank you so much for taking your time to look at the ingredients and your response! I appreciate it so much!! I’ll keep it on my list of things that I feel are okay for baby but first I think I’ll be purchasing Babo!!
]]>Hi Megan-
The ingredients in that product seem to be safe (lots of synthetics, but all ones that are rated as safe by EWG).
Hi there-
I don’t see anywhere on this site where it lists all the ingredients in their products? If you have a label with everything listed that you can send me, I’m happy to weigh in.
I found your site very informative and an eye opener. I am a first time mom. Can you please review the baby products of Himalaya?http://www.himalayababycare.com
]]>Hi Nereida-
I can’t find anywhere on their site where they list actual ingredients (which makes me a bit suspicious). If you can send to me, I will check them out!
Unfortunately, I’ve deemed Puracy Sneaky Stuff:(
]]>Hi Irene-
From the research I’ve done, I am not worried about the small amounts of–and the types of–essential oils found in any of the Good Stuff products that I’ve vetted for babies and kids. Please do share any research you’ve uncovered on this topic! Thank you!
I am not sure what kind of soap would be best for stys specifically, but for the eyes, I would go with something extra natural and gentle…maybe even this? https://gimmethegoodstuff.org/store/sierra-sage-oil-cleansing-face-wash-with-calendula/
Unless there is a reason that oil would be bad?
don’t know that one but will add to our list!
]]>Blessings!
]]>Don’t know that one but will add to my list for researching!
]]>Thank you so much for responding! Love your site and subscribed on your email list!!
]]>I will add to my list for when we update this guide!
Thanks-
M
Yes, Acure is Good Stuff, and this is a great shampoo/body wash for babies: https://gimmethegoodstuff.org/store/acure-organics-bare-baby-4-in-1-foamer/
]]>What about Acure shampoos?
]]>So by that do you not recommend Honest company anymore?
]]>I disagree with EWG. Aveeno’s shampoo has a lot of synthetics, including cocomidopropyl betaine and fragrance.
]]>I would call it Okay Stuff, not Good Stuff. I don’t like that Babyganics uses phenoxyethanol and sodium benzoate.
]]>Thanks!
]]>Thanks!
]]>Ava just had third party tests run and all stuff was shown to be as it said. THey have since been bought out. (due to harassment) and now under a new name. HOwever, Honest company is under the radar. again.
]]>Hi there-
Shaklee’s baby line is Okay Stuff. I think there is better out there, but it’s not terrible (lotion better than body wash/shampoo).
don’t know about that one, but will add to the list for research when we update this guide:)
]]>I don’t have a particular brand of shampoo I recommend, but this balm is AMAZING for cradle cap (check out the reviews:):
https://gimmethegoodstuff.org/store/sierra-sage-organic-baby-balm/
]]>Looks like Good Stuff:)
]]>Unfortunately, Sneaky Stuff:(
]]>They don’t specify whether their fragrance is 100% essential oils or not, but assuming it is, then I’d call it Good Stuff:)
]]>Sneaky Stuff, unfortunately! Phenoxyethanol, fragrance, etc.
]]>Hi Ashley-
Cetaphil Baby Wash is Sneaky Stuff. It contains sodium laureth sulfate among a bunch of other bad ingredients.
The shampoo is fine. I don’t LOVE sodium benzoate, but nothing else jumps out at me as worrisome.
]]>Thanks much 🙂
]]>it’s actually not terrible, but i wouldn’t quite call it Good Stuff…
]]>I would say Original Sprout is Okay Stuff and I don’t know about Four Cow…
]]>How about Original Sprout Hair and Body Baby?
Or Four Cow Farm Baby Wash?
I live overseas and don’t have a lot of options available (None of the the Good Stuff!), so really trying to find the best one I can, and don’t want to have to rely on shipping.
Thank you!
]]>I don’t know either of those brands but will add them to the list for review!
]]>Hi Noura-
Weleda is okay. It does have some essential oils that are of questionable safety, unfortunately.
What about Nature’s Baby Organics – Shampoo & Body Wash Vanilla Tangerine?
Or Neal’s Yard Baby Bath and Shampoo?
Thanks
Noura
]]>I haven’t done a formal review yet, but it seems to be mostly Good or Okay Stuff:)
]]>Unfortunately, it’s Sneaky Stuff in my book (PEG chemicals, synthetic fragrance)
]]>It’s okay. Def not natural but the synthetics they use do seem to be safe. Note that other BabyGanics products are definitely Sneaky Stuff!
]]>Update: Ava Anderson is Sneaky Stuff! Turns out they included synthetic fragrances, despite the label saying otherwise.
]]>Yes, you could use any of the Bronner’s Castille soaps as shampoo. I like this one: http://amzn.to/1W0LnIw
]]>I don’t like some of the ingredients they use, including the preservative benzisothiazolinone.
]]>This Burt’s Bees is Okay Stuff: http://amzn.to/1R3iXg4.
Still has linalool and sodium benzoate, so I would recommend the brands above over Burt’s Bees.
Hi!
I haven’t yet reviewed Shea Moisture yet (although I see it everywhere), but will add them to our list of products to review in the coming wees/months (fair warning: the list is long!). If you would like a faster response, you can use our Pick My Brain service.
Yes! Ava Anderson is Good Stuff:)
]]>Hi Megan-
Honest is Good Stuff! We will be updating the guide in 2016 to include them!
