@lisalucier Hi Lisa, It sounds like a smart move. I find I’m getting more sensitive to smaller exposures. I hated throwing out the scented candles but at this point, my house is clear of everything and I feel better for it. Good luck!

@drsharon - sadly, though I should "know better," I think I'm a stubborn mule in a way and have hesitated to get rid of every single product with even mild fragrance in my house.

I guess this is cause 1) it's expensive to just throw stuff away that you bought, 2) my brain doesn't want to admit that I'm "that allergic" and 3) I know going to only unfragranced products severely limits my choices and likely ups my costs, too.
