odeur agréable

About 2 years ago, I decided to go all natural with my products/life. While I've managed to switch everything, deodorant has been the ONE thing that has eluded me. I'll say it. I can certainly work up a terrible stink doing almost nothing. Even commercial deodorants never worked well for me (I'm definitely a Clinical Strength formula kind of girl). Aside from the nasty news about aluminum containing products, even sensitive skin formulas eventually caused painful cysts and ingrown hairs in my pits. At times, I could barely put my arms down from the pain/swelling. That said, I've likely tried EVERY SINGLE brand/type of naturally formulated deodorant on the market. I've spent upwards of $25 a pop on things that were either TOTALLY ineffective (I'm looking at you, TOM's) or kept the stink at bay, but left my armpits itchy, burning, scabbed, and darkened. I've literally peeled sheets of blackened, papery skin from my pits (I have dark skin, so any kind of hyper-pigmentation is a real issue). I've even made my own, with somewhat effective, but highly irritating results. I've since found that I am extremely sensitive to baking soda, which is really the odor eliminating component in most of those formulas. Trying to find an aluminum AND baking soda free solution has been basically impossible until now! That said, this stuff is AWESOME!*If you're coming straight from commercial aluminum land, then you may need an adjustment period to purge your pores (I've been natural for a long time so I didn't) and perhaps subsequent applications at first. Surprisingly, this works all day for me. I exercise 4-6 times/week (HIIT/crossfit/weights) and sometimes I re-apply prior to the workout, and sometimes I don't (just my own paranoia). I may smell "sweaty" afterwards, but it's NOT the rank, BO pits smell!*While I'm not accustomed to using a roll-on, the benefits far outweigh the temporary wetness. I'm getting used to it.*As for the scent, the "Purple" smells REALLY good (I'm normally super sensitive. I hate floral, musky, strong, or perfumed scents). It's just light, clean, and fresh (not like a cleaning product though, haha). The "Pink" as some reviewers have stated, smells like perfume. Not terrible, but too much for me. I keep that one in my purse for now, but won't repurchase. I dunno who's kid is wearing that one...*Sure, maybe it's not as earthly nuts & berries as I'd like in a perfect world, but damn if it hasn't saved my life!

Very good for kids as this is very gentle on baby skin.

Nice my daughter likes
