About the company (from their site):

"Essentials was founded by Jennifer Knox, a wife and mother of two precious sons, who was looking for alternative methods to help relieve symptoms from eczema, lethargy, IBS and alopecia.

Not wanting to rely on steroid creams or a daily regimen of prescription drugs, she set out to change the products she and her family used focusing on natural products full of anti-oxidants from fruits and vegetables. The result- her ailments were replaced with increased energy, clear, healthy skin and an enthusiastic outlook on life.

She wants to share the products she has tested and seen results with others so they too can reach their goals. She also hopes to increase the awareness of natural and organic products while supporting an array of non-profit organizations making a difference."

Product review - Alverde Citrus-Sage deodorant

It's another great product from Alverde. I got this deodorant from my friend for Christmas. It's the citrus-sage scent, but Alverde has it in cranberry and if I'm not mistaken in peach as well. I would love to try the cranberry one.

This product has no synthetic fragrances and colors, no petroleum derived products (parafines, PEG, -propyl-, -alkyl-, etc.), no silicone oils, no genetically modified ingredients, no irradiaton of end product and botanical ingredients and the product is not tested on animals. And the good news is that it has the NaTrue certification logo.

Although it says that the bottle is only 75ml,it looks much bigger. I'm using it for a month now and it's still full. I think it's really economical.

The good news is for vegans: the deodorant has the Vegan seal.:)

Description about the product

It has a strong citrus smell, but I just love it. It brings me back summer. And actually it feels like a body spray. I know it's winter now and it's not the best time to test it's effectiveness, but it keeps me dry. You have to know that this is not an antiperspirant, so you will sweat. But it will help to cover the smell and you won't be stinky. And it absorbs and dries pretty quickly.

Ingredients:

Alcohol, Aqua, Triethyl Citrate, Parfum**, Polygliceryl-10 Laurate, Glycerin, Citrid Acid, Salvia Officinalis Extract*, Limonene**. Linaool**, Geraniol**, Citral**, Farnesol**
