I am almost out of toothpaste and deodorant, and wondered if anyone has a natural toothpaste or deodorant to recommend. I am trying to replace my standard toiletries with better-for-me versions as I run out, but don't have the money or patience to try a bunch until I find one I like.

For toothpaste I really like Xyliwhite by NOW Foods...not easy to find but cheap. I stock up at iHerb.com a few times a year. Here is one flavor but there are a few to choose from: http://www.iherb.com/Now-Foods-XyliWhite-Toothpaste-Gel-Platinum-Mint-6-4-oz-181-g/11465?at=0
I am less successful in the deodorant category. This works OK except in the height of summer when I tend to break down and use a commercial brand. So-called natural deodorants sometimes need to be reapplied during the day 'for best results.' http://www.iherb.com/Naturally-Fresh-Deodorant-Crystal-Roll-On-3-fl-oz-90-ml/5971?at=0
Avon actually makes some decent deodorants, or, they once did. Cannot vouch now, but at least they're not tested on animals.
