    my little girl is 6 years old. The other day, she saw me using deoderant and a spoilt little princess that she is, she asked me to buy her one. Are there any deoderants for little girls or can i just buy her those mini impulse ones? Any other recommendations?

    tell her no?

    deodorant has been linked to breast cancer. it is full of chemicals and other yuckie stuff. why expose her to those chemicals needlessly? I say until the girl starts emitting pheromones (ie, starts stinking) tell her she doesn't get one.

    if you don't say no, then at least get deodorants without aluminum because this is linked to breast cancer.

    I am half inspired to search this up, but I will just get pissed. I really hope there isn't... but I'm thinking there probably is.

    Get her one of the natural crystal stones or sprays. They are just mineral salts. I actually use them myself.

    Last time I saw "Impulse" body spray it was in an aerosol container. If it still comes in an aerosol container, and if you give your child an aerosol container... well... you would be endangering your child (contents under pressure) and helping to kill the planet.

    If its just for her to play with, give her your empty deoderant. Take the piece that actually held the deoderant out first.

    Personally, I would just say no. Many children don't hear "no" enough in today's society. Kids seem to get everything they want these days, which doesn't give me much confidence in tomorrow's society.

    Its not a good idea to give your child deoderants AKA chemicals to 'play with'

    Tell her no, she doesnt need them so why use them?

    Just tell her no. There's really no reason for her to be playing around with chemicals.
