What kind of deodorant are YOU wearing?!

Hello lovelies! We all know it's finally officially summer time and with that comes the hot weather. Us girls constantly need to shave constantly, lather up the lotion, and of course, wear deodorant! Ya'll may know by now that the skin on my body is sensitive to the products I slather on it. I mostly use Lush lotions and nothing that contains "parfum" or non-natural fragrance. You have to remember, your body absorbs EVERYTHING that is in your lotion, and if you cannot pronounce the ingredient, it shouldn't go in your body. The reason I switched over is because I had some crazy skin reaction where I got a rash that discolored my skin and freaked me the heck out. My doctor told me it was an allergic reaction to something and now, it might be a form of dermatitis. We shall find out more of that later. Needless to say, I like to use safe and natural ingredients on my body to ensure I do not absorb anything that may harm me. So thank you to my sweet friend Miranda who recently jumped on the more "natural" cosmetic train and inspired me to share my finds with ya'll!
I stumbled upon these items while surfing the web for random makeup-junkie-obsessions and I knew I had to give them a go. I found both in my local Sephora and they are also both available online on eBay and Amazon.

I first purchased LAVANILA The Healthy Deodorant. $8-14 Its description: "Get superior odor protection with this 100 percent natural, freshly scented deodorant. Soothing essential oils blend with beta-glucan technology fight odor effectively while soothing, conditioning, and nourishing the delicate underarm area. It goes on clean, with no sticky wetness, and delivers long-lasting, luxurious results." But does it live up to the claims? 
Natural? Yes. I love that this contains 100% natural ingredients and nothing that is bad for my skin. 
Freshly Scented? YES. I have purchased two Vanilla scented ones and they smell like perfection. They also have vanilla grapefruit, vanilla lavender, and….. vanilla lemon. If you can hunt one of these babies down, GET IT. I have tried so many times to purchase the lemon one and they sell out like hot cakes. 
Non sticky? Definitely. This is very dry and creamy and feels great. 
Long Lasting? Depends. I find that if this is for everyday wear in 85 degree heat, I'm totally fine. But once it gets hot to where I am starting to really sweat (volleyball, working out, shopping in 100 degree weather) this does NOT keep me dry and tends to wear off faster. This deodorant does not contain aluminum, which is what is used as an antiperspirant, which blocks the moisture from coming out of your pores. This is my go-to every day deodorant.
Then, I found the Fresh Sugar Deodorant Antiperspirant. $18 What it's formulated to do: "Glide on the delicious aroma of fresh sugar every morning and let the sweetener's natural botanicals double as skin-soothing and deodorizing agents. The alcohol-free formula helps to inhibit bacteria as it keeps you dry, revived, and refreshed." This one literally smells like nothing when I wear it. Which is a good thing! It blocks any scent and doesn't perfume one out either. If I know I am going to be really sweating, I reach for this one. It is formulated without sulfates, synthetic dyes, phthalates,GMO's, and triclosa. I dig it! It does contain aluminum, but none of the other crap commonly found in drugstore deodorants so I use this one on days I really need to stay dry. It doesn't irritate my skin and wears extremely well through the day. This is a VERY wet formula when you first apply it, so let it dry  a few seconds before putting on your top. 
If you want something a little safer for your skin and body, I would highly recommend giving these deodorants a try! Let me know if you have any recommendations for me to try out as well!
