Shaving under your arms and deodorant

Hiya :)

This is definately an off topic conversation.

Just wanting to be more o-natural and thought I'd see what all of the 811ers use for deodorant?

I'm wanting something more natural.

Also, When I shave, I ALWAYS get little pimples under my arms that look and feel gross...anyone have any advice???

same. or shampoo or soap. i am still looking for an alternative to shaving cream though. i wouldn't have to use it if i used an electric razor, but i prefer using an old-school blade.

I use an organic castile liquid soap as shampoo and as shaving soap.
This one is Australian but chances are you will find similar locally:

I find that aloe vera gel works pretty well in place of shaving cream

How long did it take before you didn't need it anymore? I still need it so I am just wondering :)

I've been deodorant free since Februrary, and I've made it through this blistering summer without receiving any complaints of B.O.

for shampoo as well! no need to buy special products... just eat 100% fruits/veggies and get yourself a big box of baking soda and you have everything you need to be clean and sexy

I don't use deodorant. I smell pretty good on this diet. I do still eat green onions and seaweed, so that makes me smell a little. I am a massage therapist, so, occasionally I use a little amber paste under my arms if I have a really full schedule of clients. If I perspire a little during a massage and then the sweat dries and I give another massage and then the sweat dries from that one, I sometimes get a little smelly, so, I use a little of the amber paste because I am in very close contact with my clients.

I'm not sure about the shaving question. I use a razor and have no problem with bumps.
