Product Review: Jason Naturals Aloe Vera Pure Natural Deodorant Roll-On
 
Our Pure Natural Deodorant Roll-On effectively controls odor
for long lasting protection.Naturally sourced corn and rice
starches neutralize odor, while grapefruit seed extract known
for it's antimicrobial properties, help fight odor causing bacteria.
Natural Aloe Vera and nourishing Vitamin E soothe and soften your
underarms.

 
 
No Aluminum,Parabens,
Phthalates or Propelyne Glycol

3 fl oz.

Cruelty free

Leaping Bunny Certified




**This Review is for the Roll on only**
 
Packaging:*Slim bottle, I prefer a slim bottle vs. a wider one becasue the wider
  ones are just awkward for me to handle...
*twist off cap
Scent:*it has a light pleasant Aloe Vera scent.
*if you are sensitve to scents I would recommend
  smelling this before purchasing.

Product:*I have a love/hate relationship with all roll-ons in general.
*I put it on shirtless, because I want it on my underarm not my shirt.
*I want the aloe vera stick but the vitamin shoppe did not have so I
  went with the roll-on.
*It lasts for four hours(my shifts are usually 4 hours long) I wore it
  to work and when I got home I smelled a little musky..lol
*If you're an active person you are going to be reapplying after 4 hours.
*I love using this when I'm just lounging around at home.
 ( I have a non-cruelty free one for work/more active days)
*I am excited to try their deodorant stick to see if it will be stronger for work.


Hope you found this review helpful, thankies for reading...

Scent:
*I usually like to start with packaging but
  for this product I am starting with the scent.
*The first time I smelled this I thought it was
  different scent I never smelled before, I looked at
  the description and I've smelled Aloe Vera and Jojoba Oil, but never the gera
  nium the more I smelled it, I could pick up the sweetness of the geranium.So if
  you are sensitive to scents I would recommend smelling this in store before purchasing.

  a list of what this product has/doesn't have

Product:
*Bought this product to replace my previous non-cruelty free
  moisturizer.
*Like any new product I did a test spot on my neck to see how
  my skin would react to it.
*The moisturizer is thick so a little bit goes a long way.
*When I first purchased I was not using this consistently and never
  noticed a change.
*So with the second jar I have been using it consistently
 and my face has gotten smoother and my makeup looks
 so much better.
*I like to use this twice a day once in the morning and the second before bed.

How to : Longer Lashes
 
Materials Needed :
 
*Aloe Vera Gel
*Vaseline
*Almond Oil/Olive Oil
*Vitamin E Oil
*Castor Oil
*Small bottle(nail polish, travel size shampoo bottle)
*unused mascara wand/spoolie
 
 
Beauty Benefits:
Vitamin E Oil- The beauty benefits of Vitamin E oil are many such as a moisturizer
for dry skin, helps reduce the appearance of scars,acne, freckles, and fine lines.And is the key ingrediant in anti aging creams that help with wrinkles, strengthen nails, and for soft & shiny hair.Both capsule and liquid forms are available in most stores. And for this mixture it will help keep your eyelashes moisturized.
Aloe Vera:
Aloe Vera with its many beauty benefits, aloe vera promotes hair growth, and
can be used by all skin types..and its safe and natural.If this is applied just applied
by itself, its a bit too drying for the lashesand has the same effect as clear mascara
but combined with the other indgredients,it stops the mixture being too oily helps
hold the mixture together.

Vaseline - holds the rest of the product together,keeps hair hydrated and provides a protective
barrier against things like dirt and harsh weather..

Castor Oil - is a vegetable oil that comes from the castor bean(castor plant), colorless to very pale
yellow liquid with no odor or taste. More commonly used as a laxaive, and it has a beauty benefits
as well, and in this case this is what will cause the hair to grow.

Almond oil/Olive Oil is a natural growth stimulant and has been used in the Arab and Indian cultures for centuries for healthy strong hair..

Pour a

Tablespoon:

          *Aloe Vera gel
          *Vaseline

Teaspoon:

          *Castor Oil
          *Almond Oil
          *Olive Oil
          *Vitamin E Oil

♦Depending on the size of the bottle you have you could put more, I followed the above and it was
  about a quarter full so I just used more..

I have been using the Wet N Wild's Clinical mascara and my lashes have grown, but I would like to see if they would grow a little bit more, so a co-worker of mine recommended this method...and Im hoping this works..so I thought I would document it here on my blog with updates and pictures every month..

I'm having problems uploading the before picture so I am going to post it on my facebook page, and on here as soon as I can figure out what went wrong.. so here is the link for my facebook page..

Decorating the bottle is not necessary but I can never pass up an oppotunity for arts and crafts time..such fun.

I hope you found this helpful..
