I have been experiencing a sensitivity to certain smells. I have had a problem for several years when you walk thru the garden area where all the fertilizer and bug spray is located. It make me sick and feel light headed. Now I am having problems with strong smelling soap, lotion, hairspray, etc. Its really strange anyone else ever have this problem?

Hi Lori....It's not strange at all....My husband and I both have sensitive smellers. There are some soaps...in fact most soaps we can't use here. We use Tea Tree soap or Ivory soap with little problem. I have to be careful what kind of shampoo we use as well. I use a tea tree shampoo and conditiner as well. I have to be careful what scented candles I bring home as they effect Mike...There are about 5 kinds I can bring home. Love Oma
May I be more compassionate and loving than yeterday*and be able to spot the idiots in advance
I have a problem with that, to some extent. I use Tide Unscented Detergent, and old-fashoined Kirk's Castile Soap, and have done so for many years. Also use plain old Prell shampoo, and unscented deodorants, such as Sure.
Love,

Yup, ultra sensitive here. Especially if its a day that I already don't feel great. I love going to the Yankee Candle shop (it is SO big) down in Deerfield, Mass...its only an hour from my house. But I can only walk around the candle room for about 15-20 minutes before I start to feel very sick. Fortunately they way they are set up, the rest of the store is relatively free from those sents.

I am sensitive to strong scents and wish some people would be more considerate. I can get very sick from being near a person with too much cologne. Kate, I can't even walk by the candle shop without getting a head ache.

Be kind to everyone, because you never know what battles they are fighting.
