schmidt's - Rose + Black Pepper Hemp Seed Oil Enriched Deodorant Stick This one was actually not too bad- I like my Deodorante to be dry and powdery but this one simply a little too much- it made my armpits super dry and kind of flakey sometimes. Plus I don’t really love any of the smells, they are all very natural which is great but I don’t really want to smell like black pepper if I’m being honest. Didn’t irritate my armpits except for the drying part though. Not the perfect one for me but I’ve had much worse!

First, let’s start with my favorite products of the bunch! The Ordinary - AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution If you’ve seen some of my earlier posts you know I love this chemical exfoliant! It has really helped to make my skin appear brighter. tarte - Babassu Foundcealer Skincare Foundation SPF 20 I have been using this one for probably a little over a year now and I love it! Not only does it have SPF in it but it sits nicely on my dry skin and it’s honestly quite the perfect match for my skin tone. schmidt's - Lavender + Sage Deodorant Stick I’ve also given this product its own review post so check it out for more info but so far this has been the only natural deodorant that has worked for me! It also smells amazinggg. Now onto some of my least favorite products of the bunch: Neutrogena - MoistureShine Lip Soother SPF 20 I bought this while looking for one of those clear lip glosses that just look SO GOOD on Instagram. Unfortunately, it didn’t turn out to look so good & was too sticky. sun bum - Sunscreen Spray-Fragrance Free SPF 50 I wanted a mineral sunscreen spray that I could easily re-apply while out and about so I picked up this fragrance free one by Baby Bum (it’s made for babies). I’m not a fan however because it does not apply nicely, has a white cast & is difficult to get off the skin at the end of the day. e.l.f. - Happy Hydration Cream The cream itself feels nice & keeps my skin hydrated, however it has plastic in it. I’m using it for now, but once it’s done I will not be replacing it🙅🏻‍♀️ Maybe you can tell 🤔 but here is how organized from top to bottom: Products I occasionally use - products like The Ordinary - AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution & SPA SCIENCES - SIMA I alternate between once a week to exfoliate. The Aquaphor - Aquaphor Healing Ointment & Clearasil - Overnight Spot Patches I use whenever I have a white head I need to get rid of & help heal afterwords. Makeup - I only use these when I wear makeup, which has been rarely these days Skincare - these products I use daily! I began using skincare products around the age of 14/15, so like 6-7 years ago but I admittedly did not get very much into it until this past year. Better late then never! What’s your skin cabinet look like? Other products pictured include: NYX - Matte Finish Makeup Setting Spray L'ORÉAL - Voluminous Original Mascara bareMinerals - All-Over Face Color laura mercier - Translucent Loose Setting Powder bareMinerals - Prime Time Foundation Primer BIOSSANCE - Squalane + Zinc Sheer Mineral Sunscreen SPF 30 PA +++ Neutrogena - Ultra Gentle Daily Cleanser CeraVe - PM Facial Moisturizing Lotion

Out of all the aluminum free deodorants that I have tried, schmidt's worked the best for me.  I was skeptical at first because I’ve tried many “natural” deodorants only to end up smelling halfway through the day but with this product I have NEVER had any issue.  I sweat a lot and this deodorant helps prevent it. It isn’t sticky, it keeps me mostly dry and not stinky. It lasts all day without the harsh chemicals. I truly enjoy this product! This scent, what can I say about this scent? Fields of lavender with bouquets of fresh sage wafting in the breeze. Overall satisfied with this product and the smell is amazing!

schmidt's - Lavender + Sage Deodorant Stick ✨i found this one at @marshalls a few months ago with the price of $3.99 ✨had to get lavender and sage bc you know me, i love lavender 💜 ✨this is my first natural deodorant i have ever tried. There are NO aluminum, NO propylene glycol, and NO artificial fragrance. This brand is also vegan, gluten free, and cruelty free! Yay! ✨Before this deodorant, i would use either dove or degree; but i was REALLY into the spraying deodorant rather than the rub-on powder. ✨like any other rub-ons— this one really got my armpits messy and i would get smudges on my clothes. ✨the smell is great! The stick smelled like true lavender. However, it does say it “neutralizes odor and absorb wetness” and i sweat an average amount. My sweat doesn’t smell but i have realized that it doesn’t absorb my sweat as much as i hoped it would. I have been aware that i have had pit stains during work and its alittle embarrassing. ✨would i repurchase? Im not sure. If theres any natural sprays then yes i would try that out bc i really cant stand white smudges on my clothes 😩 ✨do you guys have a favorite deodorant? Let me know! I definitely would like to try!

A little over a month ago, I decided to give schmidt's - Lavender + Sage Deodorant Stick a go! Here’s my review: How I Got Convinced to Buy It I had always been interested in natural deodorants; considering the negative things I had heard about the typical deodorants I would usually buy. I tried natural deodorant back in high school & boy did it NOT work. I was watching a Esthetician Reacts video by Cassandra Bankson on YouTube towards Madelaine Petsch’s Routine when she mentioned how this natural deodorant happened to be the only one that’s every worked for her. Then, when Cassandra confirmed, I immediately bought it. My Opinion I absolutely love it ! It works & it smells amazing! It also feels great not having aluminum salts, propylene glycol & artificial fragrance. Andddd it’s vegan! How I Use it Since we’ve been in quarantine, I have been putting it on before bed & applying it on again if I feel the need to before heading out (if I have to). Since this deodorant is not an antiperspirant, application time does not really make a difference! Cautions Do NOT apply it directly after shaving! I did that once in a hurry & had an irritating burn left on my skin for a couple of days. Shout out to @Noemannfor bringing this up in the comments 👇🏻👏🏻
