OH and the Dr. Jart ones are supposed to be "self-adjusting" so one color fits all. This is my response to that:

Here's the main ingredients of the one I use:

I went to pick up my birth control today and it was $50 for the month! What the hell, Lo Loestrin.

Tinted moisturizer is just a moisturizer with some color and usually sunscreen. BB creams are moisturizer with coverage between a tinted moisturizer and foundation, sunscreen, as well as added skincare benefits - lightening, blemish prevention, etc. (CC creams are like BBs but with the intention of evening skintone)

I'm so jealous. That's basically my dream story right there. I gotta find those websites where friendly Icelandic guys hang out and lure Americans in! Seriously, I'm so jealous. I feel like the language would be really hard to learn though. And that getting a permanent resident pass thing would be hard.

I'm definitely going to look more into it, thank you!

Yeah, apparently triclosan is the next worst thing. I've read a little bit about it but of course there's no conclusive studies (triclosan is used by all the big companies as an anti-bac). =/

I don't know if this would work for me. I stunk when I was younger before even starting to use deodorant. Even if it would work - those 2 months. I'm in close proximity to people all the time - in class and in my office job. So.

This product is new but I've been using it since it came out and I love it! They have a small size and a big size so you can keep one at home and one in your bag. It's so thick but not sticky at all. I second the sock-like gloves over your hands when you're sleeping to get that intense moisture to sink in.

Thank you for this post. My town also just got a TJ's this week and I am freaking out over everyone's suggestions.

Your entire list sounds amazing

Ah vegetarian chili! Is it hot and ready or canned? Must know because chili is my everything and I just got a TJ's as well.

I am salivating! I just got a TJ's as well and you were helpful.

Hmmm I'm intrigued. But so many essential oils. I'm scared they'll irritate my sensitive pits. The best looking one is probably ylang ylang + calendula or the fragrance free. How long can you go before smelling?

ooooh I've seen that brand before but they only deliver to European countries and I'm in the US. The tea tree one would probably work best. Bummer!

The non-aluminum deodorants don't even need to be "natural" to make me happy. Just don't have aluminum! Throw some heavy duty anti-bacterials in there!

I appreciate what Tom's is trying to do but they need to quit because all the products I've tried by them have been not very good.

Oh no :(. It's so bad because the smell transfers to my shirts and I don't wash my clothes after every use so it's an endless cycle of crappy smells

OMG you're in Iceland! I'll come back to this.
