When I first started treatment, I used the search engine on this site to find out what products were being used by other members. I use a lot of the Boma Sense products. The Boma Sense cleasner is great for acne prone skin. Olive oil workes well for shaving. I spray perfume on my clothes instead of my skin. Shampoo and Conditioner are tricky. I use California Baby. Tom's of Maine unscened deodorant works well. Hope this helps.
I use
California baby as well; as a face wash and shampoo. I really like it, though it takes some getting used to, and I guess it depends on your hair type. I notice it leaves mine looking very healthy compared to other shampoos. It is like it doesn't strip it of its natural shine. It can be a bit drying on my face, but I think that is just because I have dry skin there right now. I use olive oil on my face and around my eyes. Only a drop or two, right when I get out of the shower and still wet. I use it all over my body too. (if you get the light versions, they do not have the strong smell, but will have to ask Matia when you might be ready for more then just "pure" olive oil)
I use regular conditioner (I have always loved Nutregena triple moisture con), but I only use it on my ends, does not come in contact with my scalp, and I am careful to rinse my hair away from my body. This is OK per Matia though.
I use Kiss my Face pure olive oil soap (bar) for my skin. I also took some getting used to, but does not bother me and has actually really helped with the all over itching I had for over a year. I use to to shave and everything. And it is cheap!!! You can get a huge bar on I herb for $3?
I do not use perfume, it gives me such a bad feeling even when I put it on my cloths, and I flare. But I think this might be due the fact the the only stuff I have was some old Paris Hilton stuff, that though smelling nice, it reeks in a way! I am hoping to find a more natural body spray to put on my cloths that has a nice smell. Sometimes, I put a dab of pure Anise, peppermint or Lavender oil on my shirt. More for me to smell through out the day ;)
I use regular laundry soap, but try to use ones without much sent or more natural. I use non toxic cleaning brands... but not sure of all the different ones I have in my bucket... Hope that helps.
Oh and I use Laffs unscented roll on DO.
