When it comes to personal care, why load your body up with toxic chemicals? In a world where our environments are already loaded with toxins, we ought to do everything on our parts to keep our bodies clean. Instead of buying beauty products scented with fragrance, we can find plenty of beauty products scented with essential oils. Opt for plant-based beauty products instead of those made with artificial ingredients—it’s just like nutrition!

Deodorant

The number one rule for clean deodorant is to get rid of any aluminum—you don’t want this toxic ingredient anywhere near your ladies.
