What deodorant is right for you?

Have you been interested in trying an all natural deodorant but not sure what will work for you?   Honestly, a lot of time it's trial and error.   What works for one person may not work for another because our body chemistry is different.

Here are some tips on how to make the most of your deodorant:

1.  Always apply to clean arm pits.    Try to get it as fast as possible after you wash your pits.   Bacteria is what causes the stink and it starts growing right away.

2.  Shave your pits.  Sorry to my hairy pit friends but bacteria grabs to the hair follicle and can cause more odor.

3.  Avoid caffine and sugar. 

4.  Some foods cause body odor also.  The number one culprit......red meat.

5.  Eat lots of leafy greens.  Chlorophyll cleanse you from the inside out.

We offer two different types of deodorants.    Regular and Extra strength.    The big difference in these and the only difference is Baking Soda.   Baking Soda in the extra strength and can cause irritation.  The reason it can cause irritation is because it can work against the pH in your body causing a horrible rash.  This will happen at different times because your pH is always changing.  For a woman the baking soda rash happens more at ovulation and mensuration.     I suggest starting with the regular but if you feel you need that extra power get the extra strength and if irritation occurs stop using.

Our deodorant comes in a screw up tube and has gotten great reviews.  You can check them our at our etsy or hyenacart.       You can purchase our deodorant here

Peace and Love,
Heather
