What shampoo/body wash are you using for your toddler?

I've used Aveeno since she was born, but hearing all of the nasty ingredients that J&J puts in it has me on the hunt for something new. I was all set to buy California Baby and then read about the changes to ingredients. It still seems like a better option, and I really don't know what else to use at this point that would be considered more safe.

Any suggestions? Do you still use "baby" wash for your toddler?

    We still use the Johnson's baby stuff.  I know there are "all these chemicals" and stuff, but I guess in the scheme of everything, it's not something I choose to worry about.  But yeah, we still use the "baby" version.  Don't really need to, but we do.

    I use a shampoo called Original Sprout (I get it from a Cool Cuts 4 Kids) or their shampoo that cleans out chlorine (DD has swim lessons).  For body wash, I use Cetaphil gentle skin cleanser because while not a baby formula, it was recommended by our pedi dermatologist to help with the kids' eczema.

    We switched from the J&J brand to Burts Bee's.  I'm not thrilled with the smell though.

    I would check the Skin Deep Database.  There are loads of brands that make natural, pure products without all of the nasty chemicals.

     We use Baby Oh Baby wash by Rainbow Research.  Got it at Whole Foods.

    Aveeno baby wash...we're almost through our last bottle from her baby shower 2.5 years ago.  I might switch her onto something else although I'm not sure what at the moment.  I'd like to try something else with my son, he's due up in the next few weeks or so.

    For shampoo I'm using Loreal's toddler shampoo.  It smells so good.  I'm sure it's packed with all sorts of nasty chemicals but I love the smell.

    This week, we're trying the foaming shampoo from Say Yes to Carrots. It was on sale at Target. :)

    Usually it's Burt's Bees. I still use their combination wash/shampoo for both my girls.

    Sauve 2 in 1 for her hair.  Usually just use whatever soap I am using or finishing up a big pink bottle of J&J moisture care baby wash.

    I stopped using J&J baby shampoo because of the chemical concerns.
