Freshen up! Bad breath, underarm odor and smelly feet are no match for these natural hygiene solutions.(PERSONAL CARE: INSIDE & OUT)
Basking in the sun on a summer afternoon can feel like pure bliss--until you realize you're sweating through your T-shirt. Have you ever found yourself in a situation where ordinary bodily functions, like bad breath, underarm odor (or wetness) and stinky feet, collide with self-consciousness? Don't worry: We've all been there, and it is totally normal to perspire, occasionally need a breath mint, or find your feet perfuming the room.
What's not natural are the chemicals used in so many products designed to combat these very human (albeit sometimes mortifying) experiences. So, how can you stay fresh and odor free without slathering on or swishing (in the case of mouthwash) a mix of artificial substances? Read on for product suggestions and solutions to three common problems.
Underarm Odor/Perspiration
Natural Solutions to try:
* Weleda SAGE DEODORANT SPRAY, which has a clean scent that does not interfere with perfumes or lotions, contains sage, tea tree and other essential oils thought to help inhibit the bacteria that cause odor. For effective odor and perspiration control, one to two sprays per arm does the trick. It also works on feet. Supplemental sage (liquid or capsules) is known to help inhibit perspiration naturally.

* Avalon Organics WILD YAM ROLL-ON DEODORANT gets its odor-fighting power from organic geranium oil, while aloe protects delicate underarm skin from breakouts and rashes.
