Majority of shampoos sold today include fragrances, designed to delight the senses when in use; from ocean breeze to citrus burst and floral bouquets – the selection is vast.

The ingredients that you typically find even in some of the top branded shampoos and skin products today contain chemical compounds which can trigger allergic reactions and even asthma attacks.
