A Lotion With No Scent Makes More Sense
Wednesday, September 1, 2010 at 8:29AM Lotions have scent because the consumer wants it.
But what about those who are sensitive to scent, or have allergies?
I talk about why I leave out the scent in the Beesilk Hard Lotion Bar... except in customized cases.

My experience of working with different formulas to try and get them right is that you are spot on! The consumer is used to having a scent and so judges anything new based on this experience. Working with natural, organic botanicals I find they have wonderful natural scents but so many people have said they don't like the 'earthy' smell. Essential oils are excellent for their quality of fragrance, but most of them are too troublesome by far for sensitive skins.
