Clear the Air, Please!
A public health hazard is going on in malls, live vendor shows, markets, workplaces, stores and in a variety of public places. What is this practice? Persons encouraged by their up-lines to spew fragrance particulates into the air infiltrating those around them, without their permission. I have asked those partaking in fragrance spewing, not to spew fragrances through a plugged-in device. I asked them to keep a lid on their products. They become defensive and state that they are spewing it anyway. Thankfully, live shows, and markets, are now prohibiting this practice due to complaints.
My last asthma medicine cost was $47.00 for an emergency inhaler that I need to use after being exposed to fragrance being spewed from devices that put particulates into the air. People were not meant to breathe oil particulates, smoke, powdered lawn, insect and weed killers either.
I have been doing oils for years, somewhere around 19 years and do not have reactions. I do not, nor would I ever suggest that anyone spew fragrance particulates into the air. During live shows I have found it necessary to move far away from the Multi-Level Fragrance Particulate Atomizers to keep asthma attacks from happening. I have walked into homes that have plugged in devices spewing oils, I ask them to unplug their device. In some instances, I need to reschedule the appointment and return at another date & time. I have brought this to the perpetrators attention more than once. Those spewers state their up-line instructs them to spew particulates and they are doing it anyway. Young children start coughing walking by their table as do others. Shoppers complain about the smell and still they persist. Managers of the events have been notified but their particulate spewing actions persist.
I buy in bulk from U. S. Labs. I bottle my own oils. I blend fragrances. My Essential Oils are Essential. The Perfume Oil is Perfume Oil made from base oils and essential oils. My oil bottles have lids on them.
One would think with the decline of shoppers using on-line shopping as opposed to a live visit to a retail store, that all stores, events, and malls would want to do everything possible to make it comfortable for all shoppers to visit.
Is it any wonder why fragrance allergies are on the rise? Fragrance overuse is causing the last straw incidence to push sensitive people over the edge of healthy breathing. Some people develop hives with exposure. Some people develop headaches with exposure, while others develop sneezing, feeling dizzy, watery eyes, and nausea. Misting fragrance particulates into the air creates the atmosphere (literally) of a toxic brew to those with weakened immune systems, respiratory problems, and allergies.
I have a problem with the “Fragrance Spewing Personnel” telling the public their products cure everything from A – Z. This scientifically is hogwash. I have read that the toxic combination of Essential Oils and Multi-Level Marketing create overpriced MLM distributors that see little profits on a consistent basis. I have also read that MLM companies charge prices that would never be sustainable in the traditional brick and mortar store. That is why the Multi-Level Marketers create down-lines that encourage them to be part of their MLM marketing schemes.
Cost Prohibitive is a better term to use. Reading the findings from Consumer Reports ” 5 Things We've Learned About The Booming Essential Oils Business”, was eye opening.
Because there are too many distributors in the downstream, they are encouraged to tell people “if the product is not at least $25.00 it is not a good product” another overpriced selling ploy.
I sell perfume oil for $5.00 and going forward the essential oils I sell are now $10.00 due to the laboratory price increase. The adage holds true: If there is a demand, the price for supply will increase to fill demand.
I don’t tell people that any oil cures anything, because it doesn’t. I started doing oils around 19 years ago because I have allergies to many substances. Spewed particulates from three Multi-Level Marketing firms causes me to have asthma attacks, inflamed eye irritation, skin problems, and sinus pressure. If they kept a lid on their products and did not SPEW them from a plugged-in device, I could tolerate their presence in proximity to me, but not next to me.
I have asthma when I get close to “Candle Isles”. I also have severe reactions to laundry and soap isles. One large grocery chain has the soap isle right across from the pharmacy. If I need to wait in-line for more than 2 people, I leave until I can get in and out as quickly as possible. When Covid-19 created a situation that affected the safety of those waiting in-line, I changed to a pharmacy that had drive through service. I have reactions from lawn & garden departments that cause me to have numb lips, asthma, dizziness, feeling lethargic, sinus & eye pressure that can last up to 24 hours after exposure. The bagged lawn, insect, weed products have particulates that do get in the air. Some lawn and garden products have been cited for having carcinogens and toxic substances. Prior to 2016 these substances were banned from use where children are present. Since that time, they are again, allowed, where children are present, like schools and sporting events. These carcinogens and toxic substances were banned in Europe and many other countries. I have allergies to cosmetic make-up. I have allergic reactions to certain dyes. I wash everything before I wear it, sleep on it or have it next to my skin. I break out in hives when I use a razor with a “Soft Strip”.
I get asthma when scented trash bags are used. Some colognes and perfumes bother me, but not all of them. Shea Butter causes me to have hives. I have called department and grocery stores to ask them to remove the obnoxious scented pine-cones from their pharmacy area. It never ceases to amaze me that stores put allergy causing products close to their pharmacies.
Why can’t public places strive for clean, clear air? The Multi-Level Marketing Companies can do what they want at home. Please, do not expose children, older adults, those with sensitivities, and those with respiratory problems with particulates without their permission.
In the Summer of 2019 I started coughing while waiting for a vendor to finish packing. I asked if she had scented products because I smelled Vanilla. She replied "oh, that is my vape pen in my purse". I had to move further away. Since vaping started most scented vape pens make my breathing very difficult. It is no surprise to me that vaping has put people in the hospital with respiratory problems that had none prior to vaping. Some hospitalized will not fully recover.
Public retail spaces should be clear of irritants in the air that cause breathing problems. There are protesters citing equality and freedoms. The same should apply for those with allergies, asthma, and respiratory problems, because they are disabilities growing in vast numbers due to overexposure. There was a time where none of the over scented products were available. There was a time when powdered lawn, insect and weed killers were not stacked by the bag in department and home stores. Simply being considerate of others would really help. While I know what bothers me, I will remove myself from the problem. I notice others don’t have an immediate response to scents and toxic substances, but they are an underlying cause of cancers that develop from exposure over time.
