beauty products general query

[ilove8pm]

Hi all, I have previously tried an under arm roll on from health food store, think it was made by 'Jason'. It didnt work at all and smelled a bit odd. Also, my kids hate their eco friendly toothpaste. Can anyone recommend good kids' environmentally friendly products including toothpaste, and a good under arm spray/roll on that will make me smell more like a little flower and less like a wet dog?! thanks

There's a great deodorant called Crystal Spring which youcan get from Holland and Barrett. It is made from some sort of crystal which you wet and rub on and it works amazingly well.

Re toothpaste, our dcs use the Kingfisher brand. We use the fennel flavour because of the mint interfering with homoeopathic treatments but your kids might like the mint. There are others too.

HTH

thats very helpful thanks. I havent seen the kingfisher ones so would they be in H and B too? Do they do other stuff for kids do you know? thinking of something for the bath and a shampoo

i started using an aloe vera toothpaste, next time I went to the dentist, my teeth had softened/ The dentist knew straight away what i was and said - your teeth need flouride especially ds who is 6. It helps keep the enamel healthy. After alot of searching found Halo and Horns toothpaste, which is ingredient friendly but does have flouride. You can get it from tescos, Sainburys and Tesco.

thanks furball. have tried halo and horns lovely green shampoo for the kids but cannot find their range locally anymore - will try tesco
