As a society we over deoderise our bodies. We mask our natural odour with synthetic perfumes and chemicals in fancy looking bottles because the marketing industry tells us to! I learnt from a young age to wear spray on deodorants, to layer my skin with perfumed moisturisers and to surrender to consumerism because this was considered ‘normal’! Over the last 20 odd years, I have bought countless amounts of chemically filled products without thinking twice about what was actually in them. It took becoming hapu (pregnant) to really consider and care for what I was putting on and into my body.
