Lavanila The Healthy Deodorant Still My Holy Grail after All These Years

Lavanila The Healthy Deodorant has been my very favorite deodorant since my sister introduced it to me many years ago, and actually years before Lola's Secret Beauty Blog existed (founded November 6, 2011). I knew immediately that this was the deodorant formula for me since it is effective, free of the harsh chemicals found in drugstore brands, and their deodorants are a pleasure to use.

Available in the following scents: Pure Vanilla, Vanilla Lavender, Vanilla Eucalyptus, Vanilla Grapefruit, Vanilla Coconut, Vanilla + Water, Vanilla Passionfruit, Vanilla Blackberry and Sport Luxe (especially effective for active people).

LAVANILA The Healthy Deodorant in Pure Vanilla is a wonderful healthy deodorant formula that is effective, smells delicious and offers long-lasting protection. Made from Pure Madagascar vanilla, creamy tonka bean, and a soft heliotrope blend, this delicious fragrance is a treat to the senses. The Pure Vanilla scent is warm and creamy perfection, and wearing it is a real pleasure.

Available in a nice range of scents, their scrumptious smelling The Healthy Deodorants offer odor protection all day long, and the healthy ingredients condition the skin. I love all of the scents that I have tried, but the Pure Vanilla is my favorite of all time!

If you are seeking an antiperspirant, then be advised that this does not prevent sweating. This has been my favorite healthy deodorant for many years now, and I will use it as long as LAVANILA makes it. It applies to the skin effortlessly, without tugging, and it never leaves a residue or stain on the clothes. This is a cruelty-free brand and their deodorants are free of aluminum and parabens.

When I exercise, I tend to reach for the Sport Luxe version ($14.00) since it is perfectly formulated for working out, and it provides extra odor protection, but it is not an antiperspirant either.
