Tip #11: Bring your own personal care products
Don’t settle forthe shampoo and soap provided by the hotel. Those products are full of toxic fragrance chemicals. Bring you own personal care products instead.

Here are some good ones:

• Dr. Bronner’s soap - For washing your hands, face and body. Can also be used as a shampoo.

• Toothsoap (www.Toothsoap.com) - Better than toothpaste. Simple, natural and portable. I like the “Plain Jane” variety.

• Dental Miracle - Herbal tooth powder

• Peri-Gum - A cayenne-based herbal mouthwash with multiple medicinal herbs

• Natural Sunscreen - If you are careful about sun exposure a sunscreen is not necessary…but if you want to, bring a natural brand. The most natural brand I’ve found is called Caribbean Blue.

Baking soda and apple cider vinegar! lol Both can be used for hair washing, baking soda can probably be used for bathing too. You can use baking soda as a deodorant (with cocoa butter!), it can be used for face washing, AND it can be used for teeth brushing! lol Not to mention, both can be used for cleaning too. Okay, I haven’t used baking soda yet for ALL of the above but I have used it in my hair and the foam bath that goes into Natalie’s bath has baking soda in it.
