The daily lemming

Posted by Robin on 4 March 2020 Leave a Comment

Lavanila has a bunch of new scents in their "healthy" deodorant line since we last checked in. (Back in 2013, Jessica said the Lavanila Fresh Vanilla Lemon was her favorite deodorant; and she gave Vanilla Breeze Sport Luxe Deodorant good marks for hot weather.) Shown is the new Vanilla + Fire, from their Elements collection: "This warm and exotic blend of red ginger, wild orange, and soft vanilla ignites your inner power and energy. A natural vanilla fire deodorant."$14 for 57g. Also new is a Vanilla Eucalyptus probiotic deodorant, and I think I read somewhere that a Vanilla Spring scent is due to launch this year (Vanilla Winter features balsam fir and mint.)

5 Roses for June ~ body products review

Posted by Jessica on 21 June 2018 40 Comments

Although I’ve garnered something of a reputation as a rose-lover over the past decade, I don’t review rose fragrances exclusively — in fact, my last rose perfume review was Sana Jardin Tiger by Her Side (November 2017) and my last rose body product review was even further back (September 2017). Since June is the month of roses, it seems like an appropriate time to update this situation! Here are a few rose-fragranced body products that I’ve recently tried.

I need to thank one of you (thanks, Creosote!) for recommending Andalou Naturals 1000 Roses Soothing Body Lotion to me. Its consistency is just right: almost thick enough to qualify as a cream, but lightweight enough to spread and absorb without any waiting time…

I have yet to find a natural deodorant that really works, but I'm tempted by Schmidt's Sensitive Skin Formula Natural Deodorant because Jasmine Tea (and, bergamot+lime, rose+vanilla, lavender+sage, among others). $10.99 for 92g, plant-based with no aluminum, propylene glycol, parabens or phthalates. At Schmidt's.

Lavanila Vanilla Breeze Sport Luxe Deodorant ~ scented body product review

Lavanila Vanilla Breeze Sport Luxe Deodorant

My part of the world has entered the so-called dog days of summer, which means I’m thinking about a mundane item like deodorant more than usual; and, as a scent-obsessive, I can’t use even the most basic body product without thinking about its fragrance. I used to buy antiperspirants at the drugstore, and any unscented variety would do. However, since I converted to deodorants a few years ago, I’ve become hooked on Lavanila. Lavanila’s “Healthy Deodorants” actually do their job, they don’t irritate my skin in any way, and they happen to smell great…
