Works like a charm and my pits are very sensitive.

I wear it everyday, granted its the middle of winter right now but I've had no issues. I had to get used to the fact that with all natural deodorants I will stink the next morning but thats about it. :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/natural-deodorants-that-really-work#post-2087348 Thu, 26 Feb 2015 16:46:09 +0000 Torchwood 2087348@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use this one. I tried toms, kiss my face, and Jason, and none worked at all. This does. I also did a homemade one for a while, just coconut oil and baking soda, but it's hard on the skin after a while. You apparently have to also spritz with vinegar to maintain a good ph balance, and that wasn't worth the trouble to me in addition to the trouble of making it myself. </p> [attach=3674/15/nkef4x.450x600.image.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/natural-deodorants-that-really-work#post-2087347 Thu, 26 Feb 2015 16:45:25 +0000 littlejoy 2087347@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jetsa: I was actually asking about the Arm &amp; Hammer (if it really works well).

I switched to a strong Secret until I weaned. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/natural-deodorants-that-really-work#post-2087318 Thu, 26 Feb 2015 16:27:19 +0000 jetsa 2087318@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@littlejoy: let me find it, it did for me.<br /> ETA:It was from @Lamariniere "This is the deodorant recipe, she actually lists two and I used the second one with lavender and tea tree essential oils. I keep it in a small glass jar. Luckily, I had everything on hand so it was practically free to make and I've been using it every day for 3 months with no stinkyness!" <a href="http://wellnessmama.com/1523/natural-deodorant/" rel="nofollow">http://wellnessmama.com/1523/natural-deodorant/</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/natural-deodorants-that-really-work#post-2087317 Thu, 26 Feb 2015 16:27:03 +0000 littlejoy 2087317@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: Do you think BO increases when you're PP?

I've been trying to use Tom's, and it's horrible! My armpits are noooottttt fresh at the end of the day. </p> <p>Now that I'm done BFing, I'm fine with going back to the regular stuff (I used Sure for years), but would ideally like to find an aluminum free option. </p>
