For years I’ve tried to use natural deodorants. Admittedly, I did it to make myself feel better about the environment and to trick people into believing that I am a chilled out hippie who only drinks cabbage water and never shouts at her kids.

Picking the best toothbrush for travel is a tricky business and a very personal one.
Your choice will depend on many factors. The length of your trip, your budget, and how much weight you are prepared to carry to the airport
And then there’s the decision to go for an electric or manual toothbrush. How about a portable travel toothbrush or a disposable toothbrush?

Decisions, decisions.
I’m Liz, and this is my family.

I don’t do hormones. Or looking perfect for Instagram. Or dieting.
