Joyful Girl Naturals {Review & Giveaway}


Introduction: Joyful Girl Naturals is the Etsy shop owned and operates by Shelly. Shelly has 5 children and 2 grand children. She's been making herbal remedies, aromatherapy products and natural beauty products for years.

Shelly's goal is to provide effective, natural products that everyone can afford. She infuses her own oils, and creates her own recipes.

In Shelly's products you will not find any chemicals which have been found to be a hazard to our health, parabens, sls, propylene glycol, or Triclosan.

At Joyful Girl Naturals the motto is "Health Before Wealth" which helps to explain Shelly's very reasonable prices.

Selection: Joyful Girl Naturals carries a wide selection of natural personal and home care items. Shelly's products are divided into the following categories: Face & Body Care, Cleaning Naturally, All Things Moisturizing, Exfoliation Station, New Products, Children of All Ages, Natural Remedies, Natural Man Stuff, Hair Care Products and Gifts.



Review: Shelly blessed our family with two natural deodorants from Joyful Girl Naturals. Tim reviewed the Natural Patchouli Deodorant for Moderate to Heavy Perspiration and I reviewed the Natural Lavender Deodorant for Mild Perspiration. What I first noticed when these deodorants arrived was that I could smell them without opening the package, and they smelled great. One of the ladies that works at our post office even commented about the "great smelling package."

These natural deodorants are in easy to use tubes that are shaped and function like huge lip balm tubes. They are also clearly labeled with the type of deodorant and the ingredients.

The Patchouli Deodorant was a great choice for Tim. While this scent could easily work for a woman as well I think it lends itself more to being for men. Tim has really enjoyed using the smooth solid stick deodorant and has found that as long as he is clean when he puts it on it can easily keep him smelling fresh all day long. We did have a little problem with deodorant residue becoming embedded in Tim's white undershirts, but when I contacted Shelly she told us that this is probably because Tim was applying too much deodorant and that this isn't an issue with normal application.

I am also very pleased with my Lavender Deodorant. I love the smell and it keeps me smelling good all day. However, as with all of the natural deodorants I've tried your underarms must be clean in order for the deodorant to work effectively. Since I usually don't shower every day I simply freshen up my underarms with soap and a wash cloth before applying the deodorant.

Overall, we are really pleased with our deodorants from Joyful Girl Naturals and would love to add some more to our medicine cabinet.

Buy It: You can purchase your own Natural Patchouli or Natural Lavender Deodorant from Joyful Girl Naturals for only $5.95 plus s&h.

Win It: Shelly has decided to bless one of your with the same two deodorants we reviewed
