natural deodorant

i've been on the look out for some natural deodorants. i've actually tried a couple in the last couple of years or so but nothing really worked and some smelled so manly that it had to be thrown away. yuck! i guess i'm not the only one that has been having trouble finding a natural deodorant that actually works. it has a lot to do with the natural chemistry of your body, so something that works horrible on one person could actually work really well for another.

my main factor in trying to go natural is trying to get away from all those chemicals. there are many studies that actually link breast cancer and aluminum(main ingredient in drugstore deodorants). that is frightening because my dad's side has women who actually had breast cancer. i mean there's no guarantee that by switching to a natural deodorant that you won't get breast cancer, but it's something to try to prevent it. the chemicals in anti perspirants actually clog your your pores and imagine the toxic build up!

i've done a bunch of research and it looks like a company in Utah, Bubble and Bee have one of the best organic deodorants that work. I just ordered a duo pack in geranium lime for Sheena and I to try today so i have no idea of its effectiveness until i receive them but i'm having high hopes for it. my regular deodorant has kind of stopped working as well as it did, so i'm ready to try something new and organic. i will do a review in a few days so look out for that. hmmm...am i going to be fresh&clean OR musky? i hope it's the first one!
