I have been using Angel by Designer Skin and the fragrange they add to it has been making me really sick and my alergies really bad. I was wondering if anyone knows of a mositurizer that is all natural and fragrance free? PLease help, I'm starting to dry out.

well if you go to the store and find something there is aveeno baby moisturizer with no mineral oil in it you can check that out check labels for no mineral oil and just use that everyday

yeah i know about the no mineral oil but it is so hard to find one that has no smell.

the aveeno one really has no smell... the best thing for you to do is just go smell them. cus the total immersion has a smell i can't compare it to angel since i have not tired it my salon doesn't sell it.

I would go smell them if I could but, its really kind of sad, if I smell to many at one time I will start sneezing and my nose will get stuffed and I'll even get a head ache that will last for hours. I need to have someone just go smell them for me.

Linzlue..let us know what u find out. There are alot of people, myself included, who get headaches from scented lotions.

wow I can't even imagine what would work for you.... do you have this same reaction from scented tanning lotions? Total Immersion has a scent entirely different from DS Angel. I also like Fiesta Sun Fully Loaded (raspberry/grape scent) and Monsoon by FijiBlends (clean fresh barely-there scent). if you can use regular tanning lotions, then I'm sure we can find a good moisturizer for you.

yeah regular lotions are no problem it just happens to be some of the moisturizers. I cant even walk in to a Bath and Body with out getting sneezy. I will shop around this week and let you guys know what I find. I'll try just about anything once so I'm sure I'll be able to find something. I'll just have to take extra alergy meds with me.

Ok, I have used Hempz at home mosisturizer and it didnt seem to make me that sick so that one is a winner. I also got a e-mail from someone at Glimra & Party Naked, they make all natural tanning lotions and skin care products. They are going to send me some samples in the mail that i can try so hopefull I'll find something I really like. Wish me luck and I will keep everyone posted on what I find. Thanks Everyone!!!

You can also try Eucerin - sold at drugstores, etc. This lotion contains no frangrance at all. It was formulated especially for people who have reactions to fragrance. You might try it out.

lindsay..A great lotion for you to try is called VANICREAM....it was originally only available at Mayo clinic,my husband worked there, but now you can get it at the pharmacy,just ask for it,at Wal Mart and a few other stores. This lotion is fantastic and totally non scented and non comedogenic, it contains no perfumes or dyes. I think you would really like it.
