Deoderant...

I do not like the idea of using a commercial product to plug up pores, nor do I care for the "natural" ones I've tried; including the stone or mineral ones.  Oddly, the stone one I used magnified the odor!  It was tested several times with the same results each time.  I have found that I like using Essential Oils under my arms best.  Mixed with some lotion or Jojoba Oil; Lavender,  Patchouly, Frankincense, Chamomile, and a variety of others do a great job!  Most EO's are naturally anti-bacterial, and it is the bacteria  causes odor.  To try it, just add 2 drops of your fav oil to  a dollop of Jojoba or other unscented  carrier and see if this works for you,

PainAway testimonials

My friend Sherrie's elbow had been hurting from  overwork.  I suggested PainAway on the afflicted area a few times a day.  After only a week of using it, she found total relief.  I have my own report as well.  I injured my left knee some time ago.  It would swell and hurt off and on.  I began to apply PainAway 2 times a day and in a week or so it stopped hurting.  Now I use it  once a week or so... My blend contains Helicrysm, Black Pepper, Lavender, Rosemary, Birch, Clove, & Peppermint.   Always dilute!

BugsAway!

Essential Oils are a safe way to keep the bugs at bay.  I have blended a Spritz that contains a 5% solution of Cedar, Eucalyptus Citriodora, Lemongrass and Peppermint in distilled water.  I spray it on before going out in morning or evening.  Other  Oils that have insect repellent qualities are: Lavender,  Clove, Lemon,  Wild Tansy.
