But if you are sensitive to soy, most all of Burt's Bees has soy in it, including the above one..........I've checked them all out because I LOVED Burt's Bees and have had to move to something else.

Yeah, I took a look last night and noticed that it has a tiny smidgen of soy. :( It's the very last ingredient, so I'm guessing it's probably a molecular amount of it, but still... Bummer!

I am so happy I found this post... I use Burt's bees and I have a soy intolerance. Just threw it all in the trash! Thank you again for posting this!
