I have been using ALAFFIA products for years, and always have lots of their fantastic products in rotation. Their lotions are rich and very moisturizing, and are perfect for the cold months of the year.

Aloe and lemongrass soothe and nourish skin, while orange essential oil and vanilla extract provide a refreshing, natural scent.

I have long been a proponent of more natural deodorants, but not all natural deodorants are created equally, and it defeats the purpose of using a deodorant if you end up smelling. I recently discovered Via Nature Triple Action Natural Enzyme Deodorants, and I am very impressed by them. Not only to they offer me long-lasting protection, but I have peace -of-mind knowing that they don't contain harmful chemicals. Lavender Eucalyptus is a lovely fusion of these two potent oils, and it smells divine. My underarms are rather sensitive, but I have had no adverse reaction to this deodorant. If you are thinking about using healthier deodorants, I definitely recommend considering Via Nature. If you are neither a fan of Lavender, nor Eucalyptus, then their Rosemary Sandalwood Triple Action Natural Enzyme Deodorant will likely appeal to your aromatic sensibility.

This is a deliciously scented deodorant, and it is has much more mellow disposition than their Lavender Eucalyptus Triple Action Natural Enzyme Deodorant. The edges of the Rosemary are rounded off and mellowed by the Sandalwood, but it offers the same long-lasting odor protection. This is one of my all-time favorite deodorants!

Vitamins A and E are powerful antioxidants in sea buckthorn seed oil. They can support immunity and provide support for inflammatory conditions.
