I picked up a moisturiser the other day at a health store. The label claimed organic etc. and when I looked at the ingredient list I found 95% synthetic chemicals including Cocomide DEA! from coconut they claimed and so it is 'natural'.
Fragrance can be added to a product to mask the chemical smell and doesn't need to be mentioned on the label. This means that a product can be labelled as 'fragrance free' when in fact it contains fragrance!
