Review - MBeze Ife Deodorette

- (ee-FEH) – a female African name meaning “love” -
The essence of strawberry makes this scent sweet, while African musk and sandalwood give it a lovingly bold and exotic appeal. Keep this cosmetic deodorant in any purse, bag, or pocket for convenient application wherever you are. Made with natural and organic Ingredients. Not tested on animals.

I don't want to be a nay sayer. I try really hard to like everything that I try from small natural skin care lines. The "Deoderette" is a mini deodorant, it is about the size of a chubby Chapstick but a bit shorter. While it would totally be convenient to throw in my pocketbook or clutch I find the size makes the deodorant quite difficult and uncomfortable to apply. The product itself is really waxy, so it isn't really slick when your applying it which adds to the difficulty of it. Personally I do not like deodorant, I'm bad and I use antiperspirant. For me it wasn't worth the difficulty, despite the size and the very cool naturalness and innovation of this company. The product does work well and has a pleasant strawberry scent and it does neutralize odors on the skin. If your a deodorant user, and you have issue with how much space your product takes up in your bag than this "Deodorette" could be for you. Unfortunately, you'll have to spend $10 for .3 oz on it......... for me its a no, but if you love all natural ingredients and cute little start up companies this product is definitely for you!

Review - Kiss My Face Active Enzyme Deodorant

Kiss My Face Active Enzyme deodorant contains baking soda and other botanicals to neutralize and eliminate odor - it lasts all day! Contains no artificial fragrances, is colorless and really works!

I'm always trying to find products that aren't tested on animals and that don't contain dangerous or unhealthy ingredients. I tried Tom's of Maine (I like their toothpaste a lot) but it irritated me a little bit for some reason. So, I love Kiss My Face's shaving products, and I figured I would turn to them to try a deodorant.

I have heard that the aluminum in some deodorants are bad for your body, and because I'm no heavy sweater, I thought I could try something that may be a little less severe. I chose the summer scent (there is a fragrance free option available), used it for 2 weeks, and found that not only did it work great, but I smelled good and I didn't have any of the annoying underarm irritation after shaving that I sometimes get from regular deodorants. I even used this deodorant at the gym and it worked fine. It's under $5 and it appears this stick is going to last forever, because I haven't even had to dial it up yet. It goes on non greasy, there's no color to rub off on your clothes, and there's absolutely no weird after-shower stinging or strong weird smells. I'm really starting to love this company's products, not only because they are nice to animals, but they're also nice to my body.

Review - Suave 24 Hour Protection Anti-perspirant Deodorant Invisible Solid

Reduces underarm wetness. Suave works as well as more expensive brands for less.

I have used a lot of different types of deodorants and antiperspirants in the battle to keep dry, and clean. Not that I sweat more than most people, but I work in an environment where under-arm smells can be VERY disconcerting. This antiperspirant by Suave actually worked better for me than many other brands that I have tried, and it costs next to nothing! I have the powder scent, which I find quite neutral and not overpowering at all, which is key to deodorants for me. The last thing I want is my deodorant to be stronger than my perfume. One application in the morning and I am good to go all day long. The only time I re-apply is if I go to the gym in the evening, just to be safe! Don't let the price tag fool you, this is one of the best antiperspirant/ deodorants I have found!

Sheba says: I totally agree with everything Deedlejuse says -- this stuff is terrific. You cannot go wrong for the money. I prefer the unscented, myself, but I get the same results. This works as well as the much more expensive brands. I found myself doubting that something so reasonably priced could work as well as the more costly products. I decided to prove that it was worth the extra money to get the others and pleasantly surprised myself with the effectiveness. I do only need the one daily application except if I shower before going out for the evening and then another application will do the job. I pick the unscented to prevent a clash with any other scents I might decide to wear for the day. However, after reading her review I just might try the Powder scent as it is light enough not to overpower or mix with the cologne of the day. I am definitely sold on this Antipersperant/deodorant -- it works!!
