WEEKLY MUST HAVE: Lavanila The Healthy Deodorant

Deodorant is a necessary step in every woman's beauty routine. But the effects of antiperspirant (to stop sweating)/ deodorant can be paramount on one's health. You see, many of the non-green, drugstore brands contain aluminum which basically plug up pores, trapping sweat and bacteria in the arm pit. This can cause major infections as well as, some say, seeping into the lymphatic system. Not pleasant.


I'm trying desperately to make the switch to "green" deodorants and am so happy to have found the Lavanila Healthy Deodorant. It comes in 4 scrumptious flavors: pure vanilla, vanilla lavender, vanilla grapefruit and my personal fave, vanilla coconut. They are free of aluminum, parabens, harsh chemicals and propylene glycol.

A word (or several...) from the company:
"Lavanila uses beta-glucan technology to effectively fight odor while soothing, conditioning, and strengthening the skin. It goes on clean, with no sticky wetness, and delivers long-lasting, luxurious results."

The Healthy Deodorant is my new choice. I love the smell, I love the feel and I love that I am not contaminating my body. I urge you, too, to make the switch.
