The business of smelling good is big bucks. Over the past few years I have tried a range of natural deodorants including: Tom's, salt stone, home made concoction I bought at White Lotus and Dr. Mist! Tom and I didn't get along so well so we had to stop hanging out, the homemade deodorant I bought from the white Lotus was great, it smelled like Terry's Chocolate Oranges! Mmmmmm The last time I went to buy some the White Lotus was sold out so I bought Dr. Mist and I fell in love!
Dr. Mist is a Canadian product that was featured on Dragon's Den. It is an all natural product (no nasty aluminum) that keeps you smelling fresh and it doesn't stain clothes. I know when I used conventional deodorant I would always have caked on deodorant on the insides of my shirts. So at White Lotus Dr. Mist retails for $11.99. I have been using it everyday for the past month and it feels like there is enough in the bottle to last me until I get back to the mainland.

Fresh breath! Did you ever wonder why there is a warning label on tooth paste saying "do not swallow"? It may have something to do with the fact that it is a chemical party. I was kind of hesitant in buying natural toothpaste because it is so expensive and I would read the ingredients of the natural brands and they would still have some chemicals (waste of money). I eventually found a brand that is chemical free. Desert Essence. I'm not going to lie there was a transition period..for the first week the stuff sickened me. Now, I don't mind it at all. I would describe the taste as a flower pooping in your mouth. Here is a link of the product. I purchased it at the Superstore and it was on sale for approximately $7.00. Quite a bit more expensive then the regular toothpaste but it is a big tube and I would rather pay more then put industrial grade cleaner in my mouth.
Here is a video reviewing Dr. Mist and another tooth paste Dr. Ken's. The video gives a great overview on why these natural products are beneficial and like I always say I just love videos.
Enjoy!
