[Everything doTERRA] Re: Rash after a bath

Hi Geneve - I have the same reaction as your little one, too. I react
to the chlorine & flouride that is added to the water source & some
places use larger amounts of these chemicals than other places. I
travel extensively & will have different degrees of reaction based on
the amounts that are used in that location. I also have a major
reaction to soap (since childhood), so I do not use any product that
has soap, instead I use a body wash that is soap-free & is organic. I
definitely would recommend getting filters attached to your faucets &
shower-heads, just make sure to research them online carefully as
there are many products out there & some of them do not work very well
& would be a waste of your money.
