These reviews seem fake. Why are so many posted within such a short period of time? And is this product REALLY certified organic? If so, by what organization?

I don't know about it being organic. But the seller is new, and trying to promote their product. So they've been sending individualized e-mails to customers who purchase on Amazon in order to encourage feedback. (I assume they're sending them to everyone, because I received two.) They haven't pushed me to say anything in particular, but have simply asked if I was happy with the product, and if I would be willing to provide a review. They are also offering a variety of deals right now, such as 50% off your next purchase. (There's a paper coupon included with the jojoba oil I bought with a code to use on my next purchase.) I don't remember whether I gave it four or five stars, but whatever comments I left were mine, and not influenced by the seller's suggestion. I don't know whether this is the same experience everyone else has had.

I would agree - most of the reviews look fake. Even really good products get one or two bad reviews. I really wish Amazon had a way or reporting abuse for that type of thing. (This not the only product I've seen this happen with).

Thank you, Travis. Many reviews do look fake -- how can a no name brand get 75 reviews in only 2 months of product launch? Anyway, since I've already bought it, I'll keep trying. Appreciate your tips, though.

After reading your question I went back and read through some of the complaints. I understand how you would have some doubts. My product is purchased from an authorized Distributor. It is less expensive because of the high volume and because Tanning Salons need a high markup to pay for their operations. Amazon polices sellers by often making us prove product is authentic through submission of purchase documentation. The product is guaranteed, so if it doesn't measure up, return it for a refund. I hope this is helpful.

It's probably more than likely fake. I've used flowerbomb and let me tell you, the scent stays stays stays. If anyone complains about the fact that the smell isn't sticking, then you really shouldn't purchase from this seller. Also, don't be fooled. Sellers pay people to submit great reviews just so they can pick up their ratings. A good tip is to check the peoples page who left "great" ratings, you'll notice that they will more than likely only have ONE rating and it will be to that item. These people get paid to do this.

How do you know that this is fake and paid for reviews? Do you have any proof to back this up? I would be very interested, as I ordered this product and hate to waste money on products due to the reviews. Why would Amazon let this happen and Dr, Oz? I need to hear more about this.

It's not safe to buy this product here. It's best to buy it from a distributor or the company itself. That way you'll know you are getting a fresh organic product. www.dalopez.myorganogold.com

This can't be faked, you can send it to a lab. By the way you left already a negative review (which is clearly showing your motive, a competitor. You should not do that it will not help you sell your product, it's just unethical).

Funny to see the "dirt" critiques. It is a soil-based product after all, thus the dirt. I bought some of this locally 4-5 years ago for my dog, and it worked wonderfully for her. Dogs don't always do too well with dairy based products. My wife and I tried it ourselves, and now prefer it above all other probiotic products. Since we can't get it locally, we get it online, order a couple and keep them in the refrigerator. I can't say they've gone bad--but we go through 1-2 a year with no loss of potency. Also, Green Superfoods are great, but are not probiotics. People--get some education; it's great stuff. Funny to see the "dirt" critiques. It is a soil-based product after all, thus the dirt.

I'm not sure why you wouldn't address your "concern" with the distributor directly. The only agency (currently) in this country that oversees and approves organic certifications is the USDA. I'm assuming you "knew" this already. But you asked as if there was more than one. I can't "protect" you from being "hurt" any more than a little green and brown sticker can,lol. What an unfortunate requirement you have. I'm an enthusiastically satisfied customer!! I've been using this company's raw butters for quite a bit of time now. And from the strength of mine and my family's experience alone I will speak it's utmost praise. They even have a 100% satisfaction guarantee. Which again makes your "concern" more troubling. If you purchase the product, receive the product and it doesn't have your super sticker on it? Guess what? You get to return it! Aaaaand collect your money spent. I CAN say that they ARE compliant with the OTA's standard. Good luck strange friend! Love, Peace and Blessings...Always (*.*).V..

My experience is similar. Not a quality product and i do not intend to order from that company again. NuNaturals is good but they have raised the price considerably. I'm considering Now Foods organic product for my next purchase.

if it has the USDA Organic seal on it then I trust it because to have that seal, you have to go through a pretty strict application process. The term "Organic" is legally defined and contrary to what the other poster said, cannot be "watered down" by big companies. The seal will tell you who certified it as organic. USDA Organic is as good as it gets, but I appreciate that they went through both the Oregon Tilth and USDA certification processes. This is why I chose this product over the others. On the other hand, if you see the word "natural," that has no legal meaning and can be bandied about by big companies as much as they want. if it has the USDA Organic seal on it then I trust it because to have that seal, you have to go through a pretty strict application process.

This product is fake garbage, it's some homemade junk mainly biotin, If u look at the reviews most of the people that posted only did 1 or 2 reviews for this product and the matching shampoo. For instance. The other person who answered xtreme has only reviewed 2 things, this crap and the crap shampoo Hahahha. So fake

You are right. The reviews here are very misleading. It sounds like paid advertisement to me. The one place I know that give honest reviews is overstock. You can tell these are real customers, reporting from real experiences.

I only buy organic, with few exceptions, label or not, and I'm buying this product. Labeling is kind of a tricky thing. For instance, in Sweden, where artisan coffee is a huge thing, companies come up with their fair trade labels they mark their products with in addition to adding an organic label on it. But there is nothing that says that the whole production chain is 'fairly traded'. Same thing goes with organic cotton in clothing. It may be the case that the fabric is organic, but the dye used is extremely toxic and not organic at all. In regards to the US, I found this article that seems to point out how products get USDA certified despite having non-organic ingredients. http://www.thedailygreen.com/healthy-eating/eat-safe/3980. It unfortunately makes shopping for organic healthy products even harder when you can't trust that the labeling is 100% transparent, so as consumers we need to be even more savvy and smart in our decision making. As far as buying organic comes, I look for raw and unrefined products as much as possible, like this product seems to be. In this case I wouldn't be to bother to much about a label. I try to avoid processed anything as much as possible and am fortunate enough to live on the country side where I can trade organic foods with my neighbors. When I lived in NY, I looked for locally grown, unprocessed foods as much as possible and whenever I could go upstate, I would bring food from the local farms back to the city and throw in the freezer. I also do research on how to buy organic without relying too much on a label to guide me as well as finding out exactly what foods and products to avoid WITH labeling and what is OK to consume with a label. Good luck!

Erica - I purchased it twice for baby shower gifts. Didn't read the tag as to where it came from. Both mothers-to-be loved the blanket - it was so very soft and 100% cotton. I doubt whether they cared if it was certified organic. Hope this helps, sorry if it didn't. Ginny
