Smelling good and taking care of yourself

smelling good and taking care of yourself Summertime and smelling good. Two things that may or may not go hand in hand. If you’re like me, I have a fear of smelling bad during the summer (or any day for that matter). Hazy, hot and humid on the East Coast is not a pretty sight for us.

I have ventured off using traditional deodorant/antiperspirant brands and jumped on the all natural brand track, specifically using Ava Anderson. Now at first, I have to admit I was so afraid to do this because A) I’m a creature of habit of using my traditional deodorant/antiperspirants and B) I did not want to STINK!!! However, my health and taking preventive measures that I can control, especially to not put toxins in my body, I am all about.

So I first went to Target and bought Tom’s all natural deodorant. I have to admit, the first couple of days took some getting used to. I kept waiting for myself to smell, but I didn’t! I did however, feel the need to tell everyone around me that I am trying something new, just in case I smelled at work. I used it for about 3 weeks and didn’t really care for it. I didn’t smell but I also didn’t feel like it was working; if that even makes sense to you.

What I was really waiting patiently for was to try Ava Anderson’s deodorant. I read up on her product (amazing story by the way of who is the founder and creator), I was able to attend a party hosted by my cousin and I finally bought the new spray on Ava Anderson deodorant. I have to admit, at first it took some getting used to because I always used a ‘stick’ per se for my deodorant but the spray was very easy to use (it may sting a little after you shave but goes away very quickly). I love the way it smells and I feel dry throughout the whole entire day. The big test came when I ran a 5k two weeks ago and guess what, stayed dry and smelled fab throughout the race and afterwards. A-mazing!!!!

Smelling good and taking care of yourself

I have to say I so happy I made the switch to this product and that I am taking the first step to making my body completely healthy. We only get one body and if I can make a simple step, as in changing my deodorant, then I will.

 

Have you made the switch recently?

xo,

      Ava Anderson’s you can order right on line ( the link is in my post). I bought Tom’s at Target and it was the stick and wasn’t much of a fan of it.

    I would love to try it, but I’m allergic to lavender. I hope she makes more than one scent.

    I would love to try it, but I’m allergic to lavender. Does she make another kind without lavender oil?
