(I know I do, after swearing off purching new products this past July - again, I feel your pain Penguin!) Anyway, try adding some essential oils to your cleaning concoctions - like lavender, clove, pepermint, etc. Each one has some medicinal bennefits, and it helps counterbalance the vinager smell. Which, you do get used to after awhile.Kay's Spothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17363490085736831768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7787840329572416620.post-13494727308042277772009-08-31T00:32:31.685-04:002009-08-31T00:32:31.685-04:00You might try just using only distilled white vine...You might try just using only distilled white vinegar on your armpits, applied with a cotton ball. It works pretty well. For me, it seems to prevent sweating and odor.<br /><br />(heard about your blog through Crunchy Chicken...)A Lady Reveals Nothinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03880590243726405527noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7787840329572416620.post-16617885863242686322009-08-30T23:43:25.643-04:002009-08-30T23:43:25.643-04:00I run an eco-friendly cleaning service, and for to...I run an eco-friendly cleaning service, and for toilets, I use a few shakes of baking soda and two squirts of Doctor Bronner's. You can also use Borax in place of baking soda (I use borax for tubs, and it makes them SPARKLE). I use Dr. B's on EVERYTHING--in my surface spray (vinegar/Dr. B's), mop water (again, vinegar & Dr. B's), tubs/sinks/toilets, and my own laundry here at home. :) It makes things totally uncomplicated and clean.Kelsiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00360453556050034020noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7787840329572416620.post-91220197269059452312009-08-30T20:20:59.722-04:002009-08-30T20:20:59.722-04:00I was going to say what mudnessa said about the de...I was going to say what mudnessa said about the deodorant/antiperspirant thing. You get used to it after a while though.<br /><br />I'm the same way as you with new products.

Perhaps the little part that gets smaller at the top can be snapped off to make the hole bigger, I've done that with a blemish stick I have. I've never really used a lip gloss in a bottle like that but I use a lip brush to get all of my stick glosses out, or I dig out the bottom part and put them into a leftover tin of some kind and then use my finger or brush to apply. <br /><br />If not that gives you something to think about when you do get to purchasing more, how they are packaged and how easy or hard it will be to use it all up. <br /><br />If you are using just deodorants you are always going to be moist because it is the antiperspirant that make you stop sweating and the deodorant is just suppose to mask/kill the smell. Definitely something you have to get use to when switching from antiperspirant to deodorant.mudnessahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10542400857346376155noreply@blogger.com
