PRAISE CRITICISM INFORMATION
Dreamz Pty Ltd
Social Misleading organic claims
In 2018 this company paid $37,800 in penalties for alleged false or misleading representations after the ACCC issued three infringement notices. GAIA described its Natural Baby Bath & Body Wash, Baby Shampoo and Baby Moisturiser as "Pure * Natural * Organic". However, these products contain two synthetic chemical preservatives: sodium hydroxyl methyl glycinate and phenoxyethanol.
