When it comes to personal care products, it's not just about what's in them—it's also about what's not in them. We believe in complete transparency and thoughtfully select every ingredient we include (and exclude) in our deodorant. While most deodorants are packed with aluminum, parabens, and other harmful ingredients, our Natural Deodorants are free of harsh chemicals - just a clean, safe formula that actually works. Let's explore the differences between conventional deodorants and ours, and why these choices matter for your health.
Aluminum vs. Tapioca Powder
Their Deodorant: Aluminum
Aluminum compounds are commonly used in antiperspirants to clog sweat glands, effectively reducing perspiration. While this might sound beneficial, blocking your body's natural sweating process can interfere with toxin elimination and temperature regulation.
Our Deodorant: Tapioca Powder
We use tapioca powder, derived from the cassava plant, to naturally absorb moisture without hindering your body's ability to sweat. This gentle ingredient keeps you feeling fresh while allowing your skin to breathe and function naturally.
Why It Matters
Sweating is a natural and essential bodily function that helps detoxify and cool your body. By avoiding aluminum, we're supporting your body's innate processes rather than suppressing them.
Parabens vs. Glycerin and Beeswax
Their Deodorant: Parabens
Parabens are synthetic preservatives used to extend a product's shelf life. However, they can mimic estrogen in the body, potentially disrupting your endocrine system, which regulates hormones.
Our Deodorant: Glycerin and Beeswax
We preserve our deodorant naturally using vegetable glycerin and beeswax. These ingredients not only maintain freshness but also provide moisturizing benefits without interfering with your hormonal balance.
Why It Matters
Your hormones play a crucial role in overall health, affecting everything from mood to metabolism. Choosing products without endocrine disruptors like parabens helps maintain your body's natural harmony.
Phthalates vs. Essential Oils
Their Deodorant: Phthalates
Phthalates are chemicals used to enhance and prolong synthetic fragrances. Some studies have raised concerns about phthalates potentially impacting hormonal function and reproductive health.
Our Deodorant: Essential Oils
We scent our deodorant with pure essential oils, offering natural, delightful aromas without synthetic additives. Essential oils also provide aromatherapeutic benefits that can uplift your mood.
Why It Matters
By avoiding synthetic fragrances and phthalates, we're reducing your exposure to unnecessary chemicals. Our use of essential oils ensures a pleasant scent derived straight from nature.
Propylene Glycol vs. Jojoba Seed Oil
Their Deodorant: Propylene Glycol
Propylene glycol is a synthetic ingredient used to improve texture and absorption. It can sometimes cause skin irritation or allergic reactions, particularly for those with sensitive skin.
Our Deodorant: Jojoba Seed Oil
We utilize jojoba seed oil, a natural moisturizer that closely resembles the skin's own sebum. It enhances absorption and hydrates the skin without the risk of irritation associated with synthetic compounds.
Why It Matters
Gentle, nourishing ingredients like jojoba oil support skin health, ensuring that even those with sensitive skin can use our deodorant comfortably.
Cyclopentasiloxane vs. Caprylic/Capric Triglycerides
Their Deodorant: Cyclopentasiloxane
Cyclopentasiloxane is a type of silicone used to create a smooth, silky feel. However, it can form a barrier on the skin that traps sweat and bacteria, potentially clogging pores and leading to irritation.
Our Deodorant: Caprylic/Capric Triglycerides
Derived from coconut oil, caprylic/capric triglycerides are natural emollients that moisturize and soften the skin. They are lightweight and non-greasy, allowing your skin to breathe freely.
Why It Matters
Using natural emollients keeps your skin soft and hydrated without blocking pores. This promotes healthy skin and reduces the likelihood of irritation or breakouts.
We believe you have the right to know exactly what's in your products. That's why we're transparent about our ingredients, sourcing practices, and manufacturing processes.
You deserve a deodorant that's not only effective but also safe and nourishing for your body. You're not just purchasing a product; you're making a conscious decision that benefits your overall health. By reducing your exposure to potentially harmful chemicals, you're supporting your body's natural processes and embracing a product that's aligned with your values.
