I know I know, no the most exciting topic but an important one. You all read my post about feeling yourself up right? (see link below) Well one thing that I didn't mention in that post was shortly after I had my first mammogram I was on a mission to change my deodorant to something non toxic, I was using secret brand at the time. I was also on a mission to change my husband over to something non toxic as well (no easy task for someone who lives and breathes his gillette brand deodorant). We tried a few from whole foods, Schmidts was one and there was one called crystal something or other but they either gave us rashes or weren't cutting it. Which by the way after more research we found out that the rashes were most likely from the baking soda! Anyways my CA moms group was a wealth of information when it came to non toxic products. One of the number 1 recommended deodorants was Piper Wai. Nick tried it and immediately switched! I on the other hand was not sold as with Piper Wai you have to roll little balls of deodorant and then apply.. Umm I have two kids! Ain't nobody got time for that!!!!!
Frustrated with my personal search I opted for Lavanila which also came highly recommended. I used it for almost two years with no other promising product to try. I felt it worked but not for the whole day. I felt I had a slight odor by the end of the day. Could I start ordering every single one on the market, yes probably, but again, Hi! Mom of two under three here! Could I also reapply a few times a day.. Probably, but again 2U3 here!!! It wasn't until a few weeks ago that the Admin of the Moms group posted about this non toxic deodorant that she was using! Not only did she love the product but it's made by two local (CA local) moms!!! How cool is that!? Well cool for me anyways! It's called B.O. BEDIENT (see additional links below). It just so happened that their new sensitive deodorant without baking soda in stick form was coming out that week! Score! I decided on the spot to try it and placed my order on the go!
I can honestly say that I have been using B.O. BEDIENT all week and it's amazing! The first two days using it were super hot and humid. The rest of the week has been blah and raining but no matter what I am always moving around and on the go with my two little monkeys <3 Fast track a few days.. I saw a concert (front row) imagine the excitement.. Went on a hot sweaty 1hr walk in almost 90 degree weather half of which was in the sun.. Mowed the lawn in 80 degree weather and still NO SMELL FOLKS!!!! and only one am application! For a busy Mom of two this is seriously awesome!!!!
I have been wanting my husband to try it as well because it's just so great and so easy. So this am when he was getting dressed I said are you ever going to try my deodorant?! He said excitedly, "I did! It's pretty good". This is a huge double plus!
If you are in the market for a non toxic deodorant I highly recommend stopping by their site B.O. BEDIENT! Tell them I sent you! You will not be disappointed! I even feel safe letting my 3 year old imitate Mommy and apply "her" deodorant!
I hope everyone is enjoying this extended summer!
Much Love,
