Pangea Organics Bar Soap, Canadian Pine with White Sage

Dry Idea Anti-Perspirant & Deodorant Powder Fresh Clear Gel 3 oz

Honeybee Gardens Deodorant Powder, 4 oz
When I saw this powder on sale, I decided to order some—“ it reminded me a bit of the Burt’s Bees powder which I always liked. This one is also a “bee” product, although the scent is more like a light-honey-floral. The powder is talc free, which is much safer …
