Lavilin recommended for gorgeous smelling feet

If you have a shoe collection anything like Carrie Bradshaw's it may take some time to pick out the perfect pair every day.

One thing however that never goes with Jimmy Choo, Manolo Blahnik or Christian Louboutin is foot odor. 

So we were really thrilled when RunningWithHeels.com did an article about keeping feet fresh and fine, naturally. 

As they write:

The cause of annoying odor is bacteria. Our feet are covered with sweat glands and when they’re cooped up inside shoes all day, those glands go to work. Dark and damp conditions inside our shoes are where bacteria and fungi like to make home sweet home, but surprisingly it’s not their presence that causes the odor. Yes, it gets grosser. The bacteria consume both the sweat and dead skin cells from our feet, and it’s their waste product that actually starts to smell.

RWH then goes on to recommend several eco friendly products/methods to help the situation.  Baking Soda, Tea Tree Oil, and our client Lavilin's Foot Deodorant were among these. 

ShoeBlogger, another fabulous site, picked up the story as well and added their own spin.  Lavilin still made the cut, with a link to some user reviews from amazon.com.  Lavilin sells for $16 for about .5 oz.

Fragrance guide - sometimes the best scent is none at all

In the beauty world one of the best parts of summer are the uplifting fragrances that get us thinking of warm breezes and white flowing skirts.

Scents with descriptions that make one feel as though they'll be transported to a tropical paradise with one spritz, such as with Michael Kors new Island Fiji (a full-blossom floral resplendent with sensuality amidst a sea of pristine Polynesian waters) can absolutely make you giddy.

We've listed a few of our favorites below - included in the collection are (1) Vera Wang's limited edition Princess; (2) Laura Mercier's Neroli; (3) Lavanila's Vanilla Coconut; (4) Incanto Heaven by Salvatore Ferragamo; and (5) Lucy B's Pink Fragapani.  Naturally we stand by Chanel #5 - the classic, shown left.

The theme with each of these is tropical, and vacation minded. We'd like to point out that nothing clashes with the perfect blend of grapefruit and vanilla more than the extraneous scent of deodorant or scented body lotion. To that end we recommend our client Lavilin's all natural deodorant which is made with Calendula, Chamomile, and Arnica to provide an ultra gentle yet effective protection.  It'll bring out the best of your favorite fragrance by smelling like nothing at all.

Lavilin a Q on the Atlanta Journal Constitution's Where Can I find It? page

Over the weekend Sabine Morrow, columnist for the Where Can I Find It? section of the Atlanta Journal Constitution was queried by a reader on the best place to buy our client Lavilin's fabulous natural deodorant. 

Q: I don't want to use deodorant with aluminum, and I don't want to use that crystal either because work for me. There's a cream deodorant without all of the bad ingredients. It's called Lavilin. I can't find anywhere. Can I order it?

BERNICE AXTON, via e-mail

A: Lavilin is a hypoallergenic, natural deodorant that works with herbal extracts and no harsh chemicals. You don't need to use it daily and, according to the manufacturer, it doesn't lose its effectiveness after you shower or bathe. A 0.34-ounce jar costs $14.95 and is supposed to last five to eight months.  It's available through www.vermontcountrystore.com.
