My Experience with Earth Mama Angel Baby
I received an assortment of products from Mama Angel Baby organics and tried a few of them out. The other products I gave to a friend that is very pregnant and has been more stressed out than me. I think it provided her a little relief. Having a child to take care of while being pregnant is very exhausting and trying.
The Peaceful Mama Tea is very soothing and the aroma is calming so together it lightened my stress and helped me relax before bedtime.
Happy Mama Spray is made with a safe, proprietary blend that includes lime and ginger pure essential oils. (>Read what the American Botanical Council has to say about the safety and effectiveness of ginger and pregnancy nausea).
I gave the spray to my friend but I sprayed it on my wrist before I gave it to her and I enjoyed the smell. I knew my husband wouldn’t want to smell it all the time so I wanted to give it to someone that could benefit from it more than I could. I found my senses loosen (if that makes sense) with every inhale of my wrist. It was nice.
I haven’t tried the other products yet but knowing they are all natural is a blessing.
Most women are truly shocked at the toxin scores of the pregnancy or baby products they thought were safe. All Earth Mama Angel Baby products are rated a 0 (lowest possible rating). Also, all Earth Mama Angel Baby products are toxin-free and contain no artificial ingredients. Just pure, natural products for pure, natural mamas and babies! As Gold Members, and one of the earliest compact signers, Earth Mama Angel Baby® is fully compliant with all levels of the Campaign for Safe Cosmetics. We are one of only 6% of compact signers who can make that claim. At Earth Mama Angel Baby, we are just as serious about taking care of the Earth and her resources as we are about taking care of mamas and babies. That even extends to our packaging and office practices – learn more by reading our sustainability statement.
For helpful advice and safe, natural products that work, women can trust Earth Mama Angel Baby. After all, if Mama wouldn’t use it for her own family, then she doesn’t sell it. Mama’s Promise™.For more information and some great research on toxins in personal care products, see the No More Toxic Tub in the Earth Mama Angel Baby April Newsletter. It links to a lot of great information, including our Reading Room, which is a terrific resource when you’re starting to think toxin-free.

I use a Bath and Body Works product from True Blue Spa on my feet but would love to try Earth Mama Angle Baby’s foot cream.
I have never tried it but I am 9 months preggers and need some pampering soooooooooooooooooooooooo bad
I am a faithful user of Johnson’s and Johnson’s
Original Baby Lotion and I was shocked to learn the results!
What was your Skin Deep toxicity rating score? 8
How did you feel about your score and/or ingredients? It upset me to see it was so high.
Were you surprised at how high the toxin score is for any products labeled “natural” or “organic” ?
Yes I was and also shocked at a company that I considered trustworthy with my children’s health!
When my baby gets here, I am planning on using a natural baby oil with Calendula.
I have used skin deep for years, and told my friends about it. I am always surprised at how my sunscreen is usually the most toxic thing I put on my skin. I have been trying to improve my score for years, and now I use more natural products with a good rating, however I am still at a 6. I also just try to use less products.

The Earth Mama Angel Baby What’s Your Score? Challenge :
I did the challenge with the products I use on my baby and was shocked!
1. What was your Skin Deep toxicity rating score? 17
2. How did you feel about your score and/or ingredients? SHOCKED! I thought I was selecting products that were safe for her
3. Were you surprised at how high the toxin score is for any products labeled “natural” or “organic” ? I thought selecting Natural products would be better for my daughter’s sensitive baby skin but I guess Natural does not mean safe or chemical free. Amazing!
I use ginger tea now…but the heartburn tea looks good.
I use Bug and pickle’s Belly Firm daily but would like to try earth Mama Angel’s Natural Stretch Oil.

1.The BURT’S BEES BEESWAX LIP BALM that I use daily was a 2.
2. I’m not concerned about that score because the one ingredient that was of concern had to do with allergies, and I have never had an allergic reaction and have been using the product for over a year.
3. Not surprised or concerned.
1. The Loreal voluminous mascara that I use weekly, but not daily, got a score of 5.
2. I am not surprised by that score. I often get itchy eyes after wearing mascara of any type!
3. I am concerned about the toxin score and wish I could find a mascara that doesn’t make my eyes itch after wearing it!
1. The Desitin Diaper Rash Ointment I used on my daughter when she was a baby got a score of 6 (higher than my mascara!)
2. Looks like I need to find a new diaper rash ointment if we ever have any more kids! I can’t believe that it is more toxic than the mascara I use that itches my eyes!
3.I’m very surprised that a baby-product that is for daily use, multiple times each day scored so high.
we use a lovely pump soap and shampoo for the baby but would love to try the one by angel baby

I get Burt’s Bee’s baby line for my granddaughter.

I have been using Bath and Body Works products everyday for years.
What was your Skin Deep toxicity rating score?
My score was 8, very high!
How did you feel about your score and/or ingredients?
Very shocked, I had no idea it was causing cancer and birth defects.
Were you surprised at how high the toxin score is for any products labeled “natural” or “organic” ?
Yes, its weird that these companies continue to sell these kinds of products when they know that sooner or later, someone is going to find out.

I would love some pampering. Thanks for the chance.

Oh my goodness! This is really scary! My score was 37. I looked up some things I use on my daughters, too and I was really surprised! I was upset by my score, but more upset about what I put on my kiddos! I was surprised because I really try to by “all natural” type things, but they aren’t really without chemicals and harmful things. I really can’t believe that people put cancer causing chemicals in baby wash!
Sorry, my score was 7, not 37!

I use Burt’s Bees Diaper Cream which is like the Angel Baby Bottom Balm. Thanks for the entry! 🙂
1. What was your Skin Deep toxicity rating score? 16
2. How did you feel about your score and/or ingredients?
I think my score is too high! This motivated to me to consider replacing my products with products that have better ratings.
3. Were you surprised at how high the toxin score is for any products labeled “natural” or “organic”?
Yes, I was. I’m not too happy with the scores of some seemingly natural products.
I also follow your blog via RSS. Thanks!
I don’t use anything like it now, but I’d really like to try the Milkmaid Tea-I’m expecting in Feb and with my other two kids my milk dryed up after only about 6 weeks.

1. What was your Skin Deep toxicity rating score?
-62%
2. How did you feel about your score and/or ingredients?
-not very good.
3. Were you surprised at how high the toxin score is for any products labeled “natural” or “organic” ?
-I was not surprised, most organic labeled products are misleading and contain ingredients that are carcinogenic etc in them that we are not aware of, yet they are advertised as 100% organic.

I currently use desitin on my baby’s bottom, but now that I have read about the Angel Baby bottom Balm and how it gets rid of diaper rash AND prevents it…I want it!
Desitin Diaper Rash ointment
1. The score was 6.
2. I can’t believe how high the score was and the toxins that are in there…I definitely need to get something more natural…maybe that’s why I never seem to keep his diaper rashes away!
3.I’m very surprised that a baby-product that is for daily use, multiple times each day scored so high.

I use a lot of Dr. Hauschka Products.
The Blackthorne Skin Care Body Wash got an 8.

Yes, I was surprised and shocked. I thought this line was organic and close to natural. I now think I can do a lot better. Shame on them.

I would like the stretch oil.
I already drink a herbal tea which is very similar to the peaceful mama tea, it’s delicious!
1) Hubby uses Axe snake peel shower scrub, I was surprised it’s got a rating of 6!
2) It makes me worry that it can cause cancer and reproductive toxicity, as well as all the other warnings.
3) I know a lot of “natural” products can be full of toxins. Just because something is natural, it’s not automatically good for you!
I use Aveeno body lotion every day.
I use Burt’s Bees products on my own skin and my baby’s, but I would love to try this! THank you for the giveaway.

I found out I was pregnant last month! The product I use that is closest to Earth Mama Angel Baby products is Kiss My Face Vitamin A&E ultra moisturizer.
lisalmg25 at gmail dot com
My score was 11.
I’m very surprised to learn that the Neutrogena Power Sport sunblock I use every day has a score of 5 which is actually better than the Kiss My Face moisturizer I use daily which scored a 6!
This Kiss My Face score of 6 really surprised me since they are supposed to be natural.
