Hope all is well in budgeting land. I know budgeting is a daily activity as it should be because its a LIFESTYLE definitely not a write out a budget on January 1 and ride it out all year. No m'am/sir. Your budget should be updated and adjusted monthly if not weekly, according to your pay and bill cycle is ideal. More on this to come.
Anywho, a new product for you guys. For the last two weeks I've been using a crystal deodorant.
The brand I've been using is Naturally Fresh Deodorant Crystal which I purchased from Whole Foods. Now before you start trippin wonder how is Bougie on a Budget hanging out at Whole Foods- Whole Foods can actually be affordable depending on what you're looking for- I promise to do a blog complete with video the next time I do go you guys can take the Whole Food Challenge with me. The crystal stone was under $5 AND it reportedly can last up to a year. SAY WHAT???? Yes so while it may seem like it would cost a lot because its all fancy smancy, its actually very affordable when you figure the a stick of Degree last what, 4-6 weeks at $2.99 and up?
So I know the question on everyone's mind - "Is Bougie walking around funky?". To answer that, I'll use the lyrical prose of OutKast..., "Ain't Nobody Fresh as Me, I'm Just So Fresh and Clean, so fresh and so clean, clean"!! The first few days I was skeptical, trying not to move around to much so I wouldn't sweat, chile don't nobody got time for that! Even with my regular daily activities and an occasional workout, I've been good. I'm not just saying this, my husband has no problem letting me know if anything is ever off!
Would I recommend it? YES . There have been studies (if you put any stock in those) indicating that some of the ingredients in regular deodorant are not good for you and there is even some belief that can be cancer causing (gasp). My personal reason for trying it is that I'm trying do a better job of living and eating (A whole notha post) cleaner. Eventually I'll live by the mantra, "If I can't spell it or pronounce it, don't buy or use it" for now baby steps.
Here is what the crystal deodorant looks like.
Let me know in the comments if any of you have tried the crystal deodorant!
Stay Fresh loves
