The middle of summer means we’re spending lots of time outdoors, whether it’s in the garden, camping or simply relaxing on the porch. Plenty of commercial products aim to keep us bite- and blemish-free, but they often achieve these goals with iffy ingredients. Take care of yourself naturally this summer with allergen- and fragrance-free personal-care products.

1. Naturally Dry

Made for sensitive underarms, Nourish Organic’s fresh and dry deodorant uses coconut oil, beeswax, cocoa butter and shea butter to keep you feeling fresh. The Pure Unscented variety is both cruelty- and fragrance-free.

6. Repair and Renew

Sea Buckthorn oil is a powerful source of healthy omega fatty acids, including omega-7, which is vital to producing collagen. Its naturally antimicrobial, antibacterial and repairing properties help soothe inflamed and troublesome areas, diminish blemishes and reduce redness and discoloration.
