Testimonials

Smell-Free December 20, 2011
Love this stuff. I am surprised everyone is complaining about a deoderant that last 3-4 days!!!!!!! That is incredible, even if the previous formula lasted 7. The previous formula contained BHT, which is basically a poison when absorbed through the skin (especially vulnerable areas such as the armpits), so be happy the formula was re-vamped. I started this past Saturday morning and it is currently Tuesday evening and I am only now starting to smell faint B.O. Love this stuff!!!!!!!!! The Old Spice non-antiperspirant deoderant I was using reads on the label "this product contains harmful ingredients."

I agree with smell-free - it is tough to find a deo. that works even a few hours or one day let alone several days in a row! So I am surprised to hear the compliants - although, I can understand for the long time users who are used to the old formula being disappointed. I never used to the old formula so to me to find a deordant like this that works even an ENTIRE day is a thrill for me! I probably would not buy the old formula if it really contained petroleum jelly because that is a by-product of the gas industry - who wants to rub gas into their armpits? Not me! I just started using this a day a ago but I can't tell you how happy I am so far - I just started perimenpause and my body chemistry is changing -result is that none of my natural deodorant work anymore! I was getting so frustrated because I have been using natural deordants for over 10 years with no problems! Than I read about this online and even though it was expensive for such a small amount - I figure I would at least try it out once and see. It is great! I didn't stink ALL day! Even overnight, I was sweating because it was hot in the house - I should have been stinking when I woke up - Nothing! I was so thrilled and surprised! I mean, if this works like this for a full day I am happy but I think 3 to 5 days is gonna be a treat! Hopefully I can continue to afford this stuff! :)

I've used this product for over 20 years. It is the most effective deodorant and made with natural ingredients. I always know that no matter what the situation (high humidity, strenuous exercise, stress) I will always smell fresh. I highly recommend it to anyone, male or female. I have never had any skin reaction even after shaving.

I have used it for 15 years. Strenuous activity (I work on a farm.) does not wash it away or stop it from working. I am glad the BHT is out. Can you please take out the hydrogenated oil. I don't eat it and prefer not to use it at all. thanks

I have been using Lavilin Deodorant for the past 30 years religiously. The old formula was stronger and sticky. The new formula is effective for only 3-4 days with one application.

SWEATING

Why Do We Sweat?

Sweating is a natural and very healthy process. We sweat to help reduce the temperature of the body and help cool the skin, part of an important process called thermoregulation. This is without a doubt the most important function of sweating. Every process in our body occurs at an optimal temperature and sweating is just one of the ways that our body ensures this optimal temperature is maintained, no matter what! Sweating is not just a result of heat, however, as many of you may have noticed, sweating can occur as a result of nervousness, among other emotions, and nausea. Emotionally induced sweating usually effects only the palms, soles and forehead, while sweating via thermoregulation affects the skin covering the entire body.

Detoxification

The skin is the largest organ in the body. The pores of the skin play a major role in the process of detoxification, along with other organs like the kidneys, liver, colon, lung and lymph nodes. Sweat literally carries toxins out of the body, flushing them through the pores. In doing so, it actually transforms lipid soluble molecules into water soluble molecules to ease in elimination. Some estimates claim that 30% of the body's waste is eliminated through sweat. Sweating is vital to our body's natural detoxification processes.

Other Benefits

Some of the other therapeutic health benefits of sweating include improved blood circulation and cardiovascular health. Sweating causes blood vessels to dilate and blood pressure to drop (this is why those with blood pressure issues low or high - need to start slow and monitor themselves when using a sauna). The heart is then forced to work more efficiently to pump blood. Studies have also shown there to be a moderate immune benefit to sweating. Heat stimulates the production of white blood cells (think about fever), therefore supporting a healthy immune response and helping to more effectively fight off infection. In terms of healthy skin, sweat contains small amounts of antibacterial substances, able to combat some of the natural bacteria on the skin. It can also serve to unclog pores and improve the skin's tone. Sweating can also be good for mood. Much like exercise, sweating activates the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis. It causes an increase in noradrenaline and beta endorphins, which make us feel good. Unlike exercise, however, heat induced sweat, like that of a sauna, does not require muscle tension, nor the movement of large muscle groups. In fact, sweating acts to do the opposite, decreasing muscle tension and inducing relaxing. Similar to a meditative process, the mind and body must still be active due to the heat, but the muscles are completely relaxed. Perhaps this is why so many find the sauna so relaxing and rejuvenating, it can be seen as a form of meditation. There is a form of group therapy known as sweat therapy, in which the psycho physiological response to heat exposure is thought to be therapeutic both mentally and spiritually, as well as physically.
