Product Testers

When you become a member of our Walkactive Club, you get the exclusive opportunity to tell the world what they really think of the latest exciting wellbeing products on the market.

Personally selected by me and my Walkactive Team these products have been chosen as we feel they can assist you to get the most from your body, health and wellbeing. With each product test, different Club members get to test and rate a different range of branded products. I have most recently linked up with NATIO as their Brand Ambassador. Natio is the natural leading Australian beauty care brand and is exclusively available to buy on line here at Joanna Hall. This month we decided to ask our Tester Panel to put their amazing natural Aluminum-Free Roll-On deodorant and their Moisturising Lip Balm SPF 30+ to the test. We certainly love all the Natio, so we were eager to hear your thoughts too!

At Natio, it’s believed that no one should compromise when it comes to skin care and cosmetics, the purity and therapeutic benefits of essential oils are far superior to the syn-thetic fragrances common to most beauty care ranges. The gentle, plant based formula¬tions work across a broad range of skin types. The Natio range is continually developing to deliver plant based beauty products that are flexible, affordable and fit comfortably within today’s diverse lifestyles. We think they are a must for your total body wellbeing kit - so NOW you will find the range available in my online SHOP.

Smell I thought that the manufacturers used a mix of aromatherapy ingredients to create a pleasant smell. The product is advertised for use by men or women and I thought the rosemary and clary-sage created a smell that would not be perceived as too feminine - the men in my life said that they would not be deterred from using the product because of the smell! Personally I couldn't smell the lavender in the product and could only faintly detect lemon. Overall I thought the smell had a stimulating effect - just what I needed after a shower to wake me up in the morning! Application The product has quite a large roll-on ball and was easy to apply. It has a screwon cap to protect the rollon ball. Effectiveness The deodorant worked very well for me. The smell is not overpowering yet I could still smell the deodorant at the end of the day rather than my armpits! Comfort I thought that the deodorant dried quickly after application and it didn't cause any skin irritation. I also wore it a few times shortly after shaving underarms and didn't feel any stinging, which is not the case with my usual deodorant.

Smell Quite fresh. Application Easy. Effectiveness Average. Comfort Dried quite quickly with no stickiness.

Marie says ...

Smell Excellent, very refreshing in the morning. Application Very easy to apply and very quickly absorbed. Bottle remained very clean and the rollerball didn't get dry or clogged as can happen with other products. Effectiveness Didn't feel it deodorised as well as other products I've used, by the late afternoon I felt I needed to apply it again. Comfort Didn't notice I was wearing the deodorant, it wasn't sticky or uncomfortable.

Alida says ...

Smell The best thing about it, almost. Smells lovely! Very delicate but effective. Application I don't usually use roll on deodorants but I was very pleasantly surprised by this one. It was very pleasant to the touch and application was easy. Effectiveness It probably worked for about half of the day. Comfort Very comfortable to wear but if I have a very active day, by the end of it, it's gone - not something I tend to carry with me so don't tend to re-apply.
