Hey! Welcome back to the blog. In today’s post I am sharing some new body care favorites of mine from two brands that are new to me. I wanted to try them out before sharing them with so that I could give you an accurate and honest review of all of the products.
My search for new body care started in May when I was looking for a new natural deodorant brand. I have been trying to stay away from deodorants and anti-perspirants that have harmful ingredients, so I’ve been trying all natural deodorants the past couple of years. I came across Salt & Stone and Phlur because of this quest of mine to try natural body care.
I love this deodorant! I have only tried the Bergamot and Hinoki scent, but I absolutely LOVE it! It smells AMAZING and it works. I have been thinking about how deodorant works over the past few weeks and I think I have a better understanding of it. I feel like we all expect deodorant to last for 12 hours without us breaking a sweat or staying fresh all day, when that really doesn’t even make sense. What I mean by that it – we reapply lipstick, lipgloss, lotion, etc. throughout the day so I’m not sure why we (well I’m really talking about myself now) never thought that we would have to reapply deodorant to our armpits. Given this, I now reapply this deodorant right after I shower and after lunch (on days when I report to the office) and I smell good all day. I also want to share with you that I sweat A LOT! It’s almost embarrassing, so when I say it works and I don’t have any issue reapplying it throughout the day, I’m giving you the honest opinion of someone who sweats a lot.
The body wash from Salt & Stone is amazing as well! I’ve used both the Bergamot and Hinoki and the Santal and Vetiver scents and they not only smell AMAZING, they also lather really well and are gentle on the skin. The scent of the body wash also lingers on the skin after you dry so it’s a win-win.
If been trying to be more diligent about using good hand lotion because my cuticles haven’t been the healthiest. I’ve learned that the reason for that is that my cuticles aren’t moisturized adequately. To remedy this, I have been applying cuticle oil and this hand lotion multiple times a day and it has been working! I bought the hand lotion is the Bergamot and Hinoki scent as well.
I have only tried the body lotion from Phlur in the Missing Person scent and it smells great! It is the perfect accompaniment to the Bergamot and Hinoki body wash and deodorant by Salt & Stone. It is creamy and moisturizing.
I hope you enjoyed this post all about body care I’m loving!
’til next time,
