I could take it or leave it, but I always find it very useful to have ingredients that could be irritants or products that people generally have reactions to listed.

I think it's important enough to know the ingredients, because you don't want to use anything unhealthy or harmful.

I prefer reading reviews that do list the ingredients and break down the ones that some could be allergic or sensitive to, but I usually skip over the entire breakdown, unless there is something specific I am interested in.

I love it when reviews list which ingredients could cause allergic reactions. They help me decide on products a lot.

It's nice to have the ingredients listed

I only like to see it when it is something that could be harmful. But as to whether or not someone puts it all in or not does not matter to me. If they do I like to see a link so I can read for myself about the ingredients, sometimes it could be harmful to the wife but not me.

yes

Ohoho, this thread brought to my attention the idea of listing things as allergens... I hadn't done that before but I think I will in the future, if I see any! Thanks for your comments/future comments, y'all.

I don't mind either way. I honestly don't have the time or want to do research on every single ingredient and material in things I review. I did enough research in college, I don't want to feel like I'm doing a research paper. Reviewing is fun but not if it's going to feel like homework.
If someone else wants to, more power to them. I won't rate their review any higher or lower for it.

just as long as it doesn't go on and on but you're right- you can always scroll down. i especially like it because then i know whats what in other products. the only thing that it doesn't help with is knowing just how much of everything is in it. just because l-argenine is the second ingredient after water doesn't necessarily mean that its a high enough content to have an affect on you.

It depends on the product. I find that I tend to skip the ingredient explanations unless something catches my attention-like unfamiliar ingredients. The basics are always the same and have been explained on many reviews. However, it might be good for just purchasers.

I am surprised that there are people that don't care what chemicals are put in or on their bodies!

Why would anyone want to ignore information that may impact thier health?

I also don't like links to information in reviews. I read reviews straight through, and hate stopping to follow links. I'm too distract-able. Before you know it, I've gone somewhere else and forgotten I was reading a review and then YOU won't get your review voted on. If there are links, I either ignore them (and wish the reviewer had put the info from the links in their OWN words IN the review) or if I follow the links, I get distracted and then the review never gets voted on by me.

It isn't that hard to include relevant data. Many people who care about their bodies want to know exactly what is in product and what those chemicals may do. Also, people with allergies and sensitivities need this information.

If a toy or product contains something that people are commonly sensitive or allergic to and the reviewer doesn't bother to mention it, they get a much lower vote from me !

As far as I'm concerned reviewers should not leave it up to other reviewers to do their research for them. The "some one else will include this data in their review. I don't have to bother." That's lazy and I rarely read ALL the reviews for a product, usually the newest one, and a few more, if I am looking to buy. And only the new one if I am just browsing. People who assume I will read someone elses review to get data they should have included in their review will not get a high vote from me.

Include the information. It isn't difficult. Anyone can use a search engine. It may not be the "most fun" part of writing a review, but I feel it is essential for many things. Things like lubes, cosmetics, bath products, condoms (as many are made from latex, an allergen, and some have lube on them that may cause sensitives in some people) and toys made from product that may cause allergies or sensitivities. You don't need to do it for a 100% silicone dildo, but you DO need to do the research for, say, a body wash, or a perfume or a lube.

I think it's helpful information.

I think it is very important to include the ingredient information because everyone is different on what causes allergic reactions to them.

I'm agreeing with y'all that it can be skipped over... which makes me wonder why some people really, really hate it. I wish we could get some input from them!

I don't understand why anyone would hate it. Really, usually they are put into there own section, so it's easy to skip over. I always to an ingredients breakdown. Especially after reviewing my hair care trio. You'd be surprised what crap they put into that stuff. Somethings are really harmful. I don't like having to click a link for every ingredient I want to read about. That requires me to go off site. A sentence or two about the ingredient is very useful. I use skin deep because I don't have a lot of time to research them fully. And skin deep keeps things brief for us.

I can take it or leave it, but if it's there I'll look it over for sure.

actually I wouldn't even buy a product that didn't list its ingredients if eden had an ingredient list resource like it does for materials it would make it much easier but like in said before most ingredients are used for more than one purpose, depending on what type of product they are in so that needs to be taken into consideration. sorry if im just repeating what i said before

I really think it is great when the ingredients are listed and explained helps from buying a toy or some thing I might have a reaction to

I find it impressive of the reviewer, but I am neutral and usually skim over that.
