Yes...LOL! Right?! But it does... it totally does. <br /><br />Yes, she does have the yuzu, rose and vetiver in stock pretty much all the time, but I was really REALLY wanting the Black Chamomile. I can't really see myself using a grapefruit or straight rose for deodorant but I might swing the vetiver. Thank you for the feedback. <3<br /><br />I am curious how the baking soda free version compares to the original formula now too. I may buy a travel size just to test it out. Thank you for spurring me on to try new natural deodorants!

They do have a four pack travel size you can choose for $15, which is a nice little discount, like getting one free. I think I will try that pack next. And with four they will last a good long while.TheRedolentMermaidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12025330454820306972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2810618299009561680.post-26319632620165334042017-05-14T08:01:24.084-04:002017-05-14T08:01:24.084-04:00Thank you for the recs!

The deo that works the best for me is from bluelessentials on Etsy but it's not clear and she's been on hiatus for a while. <br /><br />The clear ones I like are Moona's, I got the orange bergamot scent, and the unisex scents from LiveBeautifullyBody on Etsy. Her Urban Breeze is listed as masculine but smells to me like the powder scent from Secret. ☺ All the scents are all natural but she has a wide range of notes she uses. And she has sales regularly which is nice.Jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12720810461114999061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2810618299009561680.post-35692907792305752002017-05-13T17:14:49.071-04:002017-05-13T17:14:49.071-04:00Who would have thought natural deodorant would pro...Who would have thought natural deodorant would provide such fascinating reading? But it honestly does! These things are must-know when venturing into new product territory.<br />I'm so happy I found The Dirty Goat and last I saw all scents were back in stock.<br />The rose hasn't fared as well as the pine festive one, but the scent turned out beautifully. The consistency has pilled or flaked more and I've used this one up more quickly, but it's been warmer out. Summer will be the true test. <br />The deodorant free option from Smarty pits sounds perfect, I'm going to bookmark these pages. It's really not something I want to run out of because although pricier, I know I'll never look back on drugstore kinds again.<br />Thanks for the review and more natural products for the pits:)Jaybirdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15849863681125100236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2810618299009561680.post-18809306442274878182017-05-13T13:14:02.967-04:002017-05-13T13:14:02.967-04:00I headed over to the Smartypits site after reading...I headed over to the Smartypits site after reading your post and took advantage of the free starter set. I used Schmidt's for a time but once summer rolled around it just didn't keep me dry and I'd end up with pit rash. Excited to give Smartypits a try...thanks Julie!Colleenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08587621084916053924noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2810618299009561680.post-1579797163622819172017-05-13T11:41:17.294-04:002017-05-13T11:41:17.294-04:00I have been eyeing natural deo for awhile now espe...I have been eyeing natural deo for awhile now especially after reading Jay's review but I've also been worried about the whole switch over experience from store brand to natural. Jay said something about having to take steps so you wouldnt have a reaction. So that's one reason why I haven't switched, also the pricey of it all has kind of held it back but it's something I feel i need to look intoThemeltdownhttp://themeltdownblog.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2810618299009561680.post-69536702206601442332017-05-13T08:34:53.463-04:002017-05-13T08:34:53.463-04:00They are shenanigans!!!!

But then I started getting worried about all the lymph nodes/breast cancer/aluminum chatter and decided to give natural a try. The Puur Body Tonic was ok but didn't last all day. then I tried some almond roll-on natural one from the grocery store, hated the smell and it really didn't keep me fresh. So the trial continued. I may still try to get my hands on a Dirty Goat one in a fun scent but if I can't then I would be happy with the Smartypits as my go-to deodorant. I did side eye the Moona ones but I wasn't sure if I wanted to at the time. I was focused more on the bath salt and candle. And I needed to behave. If you find one you truly love will you let me know? Oh! And my two Arcana soaps came yesterday afternoon!!!! Thank you, Jean! I am so excited!!! I will send your gift out next week. <3TheRedolentMermaidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12025330454820306972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2810618299009561680.post-55826034268682551402017-05-13T08:20:56.111-04:002017-05-13T08:20:56.111-04:00Deo shenanigans ☺.

I was going to get some more Moona deo but have a few from other companies and am trying not to end up with too much. Jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12720810461114999061noreply@blogger.com
