Jasmin of The Worsted Witch notes that the lotion gets a nice, low 0.3 rating from EWG. Of the Pyrenees Lavender with Cardamom scent, Jasmin says “The calming lavender scent is pleasing without being cloying; the spicy upper notes of cardamom—a scent chai-lovers will instantly recognize—though sharp, never veer into becoming pungent.” [...] [...] Pangea Organics Hand & Body Lotion. $5.99 for a 18-oz bottle.

Nice guy. This was the only booth I visited that wasn't giving away samples.... the sales woman said it was because they didn't have smaller packaging that was earth friendly. I thought that was pretty cool, and very rare at a trade show (they can be soo wasteful). I visited there booth at the Natural Products Expo last weekend, and met the Founder Josh Onysko. Nice guy.
