If you are not currently using natural cleaners you might feel that Melaluca products are natural. But honestly, many are not. I have been buying my cleaners and personal products at a health food store for about 35 years. I purchased Melaluca products and found dimethicone (silicone), petroleum (a carcinogen outlawed in the UK) and splenda ( processed with chlorine), in the first 2 products I unpacked. They are all going back. Just the smell of the dryer sheets made me sick. Many do not know that dryer sheets cause pancreatic cancer. MS Meyers dryer sheets are OK to use. I was lied to about their products being natural and all made in the USA. A natural hand soap or shampoo will have water and aloe as the first 2 ingredients. They will never contain a perfume.
Back in the 70s I worked as a high school teenager in the men's department for JCP. There was a gentlemen who worked in the suit department inside the mens department. He constantly pinched my bum. I asked him over and over to stop. But he never did. He pinched other girls as well. While shopping in the store one day with my little sister, he pinched my bottom in front of her. My sister went home and told my dad. My dad ordered me to report what was happening to the HR department. I did. The man was fired. He tried to sue JCP. He dropped the lawsuit when I agreed to testify. The manager of men's didn't like me after that. He had me transferred to the children's dept. after yelling at me in front of customers for not handing out enough credit card applications. Then 2 weeks later, coincidently I received an award for the most credit card applicants for the entire store. The children's dept. manager gave me a raise and told me his sales were always higher on my work shifts. Another employee in the hardware dept. made lewd comments to me as well, but I did not report him. At the time I was shy and innocent. I didn't fully understand men or what happened.
Dogs under 8 pounds in the arms of their owner should always be allowed into stores that do not sell food. They can be placed inside a carry bag at food stores.
