In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Many people prefer to use natural deodorant. For some it is about avoiding artificial ingredients that they can't pronounce; for others it is a desire not to interfere with the body's natural sweating process. Whatever your reason, there are many natural choices on the market. As with all products, people find natural deodorant to be of varying levels of efficacy. You'll have to experiment to find what works for you. However, many people find that roll-ons and sprays work better than sticks. You will not find natural antiperspirant. Plant oils and extracts have been proven to have antimicrobial effects. These oils can be combined with other readily accessible ingredients. Try combining solids like beeswax, cocoa butter, or shea butter with oils including thyme, rosemary, or lavender. Baking soda is also a common ingredient in homemade deodorant. While wanting to smell nice is not a new phenomenon, it was not easy to convince American consumers to buy deodorant. Keep in mind that companies' business depends on convincing you that you stink! There is actually a single gene that controls whether or not you have the chemical that bacteria like to feed on, causing smelly sweat. If you don't have this gene, you don't need deodorant. Short of coding your DNA, you can get an idea of whether you have this gene or not by looking at your earwax, which is controlled by the same gene. If it's dry and flaky, you likely do not produce stinky sweat. Of course, no one needs deodorant for health reasons. It's not something you need to spend money on just because everyone else does.
Summary: Explore natural brands. Make your own. Experiment to see if you really need deodorant.

If you find that idealistic representations in the media are having a negative effect on your self-esteem, it may be a good idea to decrease your exposure to media and social media outlets. Limit your time spent on social media websites, or eliminate it altogether. Delete or disable your social media pages. If you don't want to completely disable or delete your Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram account, then limit the time you spend each day, or each week, checking up on your accounts. For example, keep it to 10 minutes a day or 30 minutes a week, but use caution since even small amounts of exposure can lead to negative comparative thinking. Limit your exposure by avoiding fashion magazines, reality television shows, certain movies, and music, etc. If you found yourself frequently comparing you to a certain model or athlete, avoid magazines, shows, or games that feature them. Even temporary exposure to media depicting ideal images has been shown to impact self-esteem and self-image negatively. This can even put you at risk for rumination and depression symptoms. Idealistic images in the media cannot always be avoided, so be aware if you're comparing yourself to them. Think about the realities of those seemingly perfect people or things. For example, if you envy the perfect relationship that a friend has with her spouse, remember how difficult it was for her to find that partner and the challenges she may have faced. Empathy will replace jealousy. If you see someone with the body, car, or life you want, try to think of actions you can take to get yourself closer to these goals and write them down. Find ways to use them that will enrich your life. Follow educational, informative, or inspirational pages. If you want success, follow entrepreneurial accounts. If you want to achieve a better physical condition, follow fitness and healthy eating pages. If you want to improve your mind and personality, try following brain and psychology-related accounts.

One-sentence summary -- Decrease your exposure to media and social media outlets. Avoid media that show ideal images. Start thinking realistically. Use social media in a positive way.

Problem: Article: The artwork or objects that you plan to place inside of the shadow box frame needs to fit inside of it. Use a ruler or a tape measure to find the length and width of the item so you can make a shadow box frame that fits it. Write down your measurements so you can easily remember them. For example, you could have a painting that measures 18 by 24 inches (46 by 61cm) that you want to install inside of a shadow box frame. If you're giving the shadow box as a gift, or you don't know the dimensions of the artwork, choose a common shadow box measurement such as 10 by 10 inches (25 by 25cm), 11 by 14 inches (28 by 36cm), or 12 by 12 inches (30 by 30cm). Purchase a sheet of plywood in good condition that is as close to your measurements as you can. Look for pre-cut sheets of plywood that fit the dimensions, or purchase a larger sheet that you can cut to size. You can find 14 inch (6.4mm) thick plywood at your local hardware store or online. Use a ruler and trace the dimensions of the shadow box frame onto the thinner sheet of plywood that will serve as the backing. Then, use a circular saw to cut along the lines and cut out the plywood so it matches the measurements. Use a pencil or marker to mark the dimensions on the board. Use the ruler to draw a straight line so you can cut along it with the saw. Buy a length of thicker plywood that you can measure and cut to size to build your shadow box frame. The thicker board will form the top, sides, and bottom of your frame, so cutting them from the same piece of plywood will ensure that they're uniform and consistent. You can purchase plywood boards at hardware stores, at home improvement stores, and online. Measure the top or bottom of the plywood backing that you cut and then mark the measurements onto the 1 by 4in (2.5 by 10.2cm) plywood board. Use the circular saw to cut 2 segments from the board to form the top and bottom pieces of the frame. You can also use a table saw or a hand saw to cut the board. You will end up with 1 sheet of thinner plywood and 2 lengths of the thicker plywood. Subtract the thickness of the top and bottom boards from the total length of the backing to find the length of your side boards. Then, cut them out of the 1 by 4in (2.5 by 10.2cm) plywood. The 2 top pieces will be the same length as the width of the plywood backing of the frame. The 2 sides will be slightly shorter than the length of the backing because of the top and bottom pieces. Use gentle, circular motions to lightly sand all of the pieces of wood to remove splinters and rough patches. Pay extra attention to the edges and the sides that were cut so the boards are even and consistent. Wipe or blow off any sawdust from the surface of the wood when you're done sanding. You can use an electric sander as well. Look for sandpaper at hardware stores and online.
Summary:
Measure the item that you plan to place in the frame. Buy a piece of 14 inch (6.4mm) thick plywood for the backing. Cut the plywood to size, if necessary. Get an 8ft (2.4m) board measuring 1 by 4 inches (2.5 by 10.2cm). Cut the top and bottom pieces from the 1 by 4in (2.5 by 10.2cm) board. Subtract 1.5 inches (38mm) from the length and cut the side pieces. Sand all of the pieces of wood with 180-grit sandpaper.
