Ditch & Switch : Natural Deodorant
Have you checked out the ingredient list on your deodorant lately? Good luck pronouncing those bad boys!
I switched to natural deodorant years ago and have loved it ever since.
I started my natural deodorant journey by making my own. If you’re interested in the recipe, leave a comment below and I’ll gladly share! But there are so many fun recipes on the Pinterest lands for fun, natural deodorants.
After years of making my own, laziness kicked in and I started buying this deodorant from Bare Naked Botanicals.
I still, to this day, recommend this deodorant to anyone looking for a more natural product full of easy to pronounce ingredients. It’s a fav!
They have so many different scent combinations and are continuously coming out with new ones.
Also, it’s a win-win since you’re supporting a small business!
Side Note -
If you haven’t started your natural deo journey yet and are just doing research, I have some things I would like to mention!
You will go through a detox process in the ol pit area. Conventional deodorants cover the yuck by plugging your pores and making it harder for sweat to come through.
When you switch to the natural deodorants you will notice you may be a bit stinky for a few days to a week. This is natural, normal and totally not something to be alarmed about.
Your pores are cleansing out all the yuckies that your old deodorant trapped in there. No biggie!
Just carry around the natural deodorants with you for a bit to double apply during the day. This is all temporary!
After, again, using this product for years I decided it was time for a change.
I started switching over most products in my home to Young Living products. They have a great brand that I can totally trust and stand behind.
So with the switch, came a deodorant change!
I’m currently using their Valor deodorant and I absolutely love it! This stuff works so well - definitely recommend!
I live in California and we’re in the dead heat of summer right now, hello 100 degree days. I haven’t noticed any stank or sweat marks, which is an immediate win for this deo in my book!
