Not only are the products on this website extremely expensive but they also do not appear to be that much safer. None of the ingredients are listed except "plants" and "not petroleum." If the company really wanted to be transparent the ingredients would all be listed.

:star: I think the main goal of this company is not to include healthier ingredients but instead to make a lot of money off of people who like to hear the word organic.
Avalon Organics
The Avalon organics website immediately appears to be more natural just with the branding. The certifications appear to be more trustworthy. The ingredients of every product is listed. All of their products contain no phthalates and each appear to be scented naturally. The products are not grossly expensive and are available at Walmart and Target
