My husband has oily skin (despite clean diet) and it makes our sheets oily on his side. I was cleaning them with Holy Cow for years and it worked very well. Want to stick with something non-toxic. It's the first and only product we've been able to use without any reactions on his skin. We loved it. Don't want to use Greased Lightening or anything like that. Any suggestions?

Big or small, companies typically fail due to their business choices. I suspect one of the bad choices that helped in this business failure was withholding a disclose of the ingredients to their buyers. This was my primary concern, but I still agree with David the labeling could have been misleading buyers. The ability to freely speak out and up about anything is the basis of freedom and America. We all have the right to the freedom of speech. In fact I'd argue that forums like this are ideal for grass roots efforts to bring the truth to light and for people to come together. I don't think anyone was advocating not buying american products or from small business. Not sure where you got that. I always advocate shopping local and buying from small business. Do you have a clue now? getaclue,

So Brent, if you want to defend this product as organic that many of us loved and are disappointed, why don't you prove it the right way that it is really organic and get back into business? I don't think you went out of business because you wanted to keep the cost low, I am pretty sure you went out of business because you can't prove to everyone that the product is 100% organic or non-harmful (no harmful chemicals or harmful natural products either). Too bad! As a business owner, and if i were walmart or any other big company, I am going to be after you for all claims, you just did not want to cough up the money for proving what you have, too bad buddy. You certainly dont know how to do business. Well, the owners had the opportunity to prove their products by going to the right place for certifying it.
