Blood orange, lemon, and mandarin oils work in harmony to purge and prevent unpleasant smells. The sprig of rosemary adds an extra dimension of warmth and comfort. Everyday Deodorant with Alum Stone Eau des Minimes is simple enough for casual events, yet inviting and interesting enough for those special romantic evenings. No matter the occasion, this scent is sure to make – and leave – a lasting impression.

Although we emphasized the benefits during the cold winter months every beauty junkie knows the importance of oil-free skin, flawless makeup application, and soft, smooth skin at any time of year. We love using the Snow Angel Duo during especially hot summer days; it reminds us to keep a cheerful spirit and enjoy the summer sun.
