Pacifica Island Vanilla Perfume Roll-On | Friday Finds

I have worn some sort of perfume almost every day beginning when I was old enough to be able to by myself some.  From Love’s Baby Soft, to Charlie Perfume, to Bonne Belle Skin Musk.   As I’ve made the gradual switch to eating healthier with organic foods and trying to remove pesticides from my diet, I took a look at the perfumes that I was wearing.  Everything I read did not paint a happy picture.  Most perfumes contained phthalates – which were linked to hormonal disruptions and other health problems, parabens – which some studies show to be estrogen mimickers .  It didn’t make any sense for me to be putting more chemicals on my skin just to smell nice.

Luckily there are more and more perfume options that are phthalate and paraben free.  My new favorite is Pacifica Island Vanilla Roll-On Perfume.    It is made without phthalates, parabens, mineral oils, GMO, propylene glycol, and artificial color. No animal testing. 100% vegan and gluten-free.  While I don’t really care about the vegan and gluten-free, I do like that it does not have all those other questionable ingredients.   What’s just as important however is it’s scent, and it’s scent is wonderful.  It has a soft floral scent with warm vanilla tones.  Very, very nice.  What I have found that a lot of these more natural perfumes don’t seem to last as long, so I love that this comes in a cute glass roll-on.  I keep one in my purse so I can reapply whenever I want.   I have gotten so many compliments on how good I smell!  I love it!
