Deo that works!

I want to apologize to my friends, family, + colleagues for years of smelling me while I played the natural deodorant dating game.

I'm sorry.I know there were some "intense" moments in there, but you hung with me + I finally figured it out. 

Clean Deodorant-

I have found my ride or die deodorant + I am super excited to share it with you {right here}. And this deo is refillable + recyclable, cutting its water, fossil fuel, + greenhouse gas emissions by an estimated 47%—all big perks.It can take several weeks for your underarms to detox from the toxins that have been trapped in sweat ducts by antiperspirants, + you might experience a {temporary} odor.

Antiperspirant vs. Deodorant-

Antiperspirants are typically made with aluminum, which stops odor by plugging sweat glands and preventing sweating.Deodorants don't prevent sweating but work to neutralize body odor and absorb sweat.

Toxic Ingredients -

Aluminum can potentially clog pores + hinder the body's natural detoxification process.

There is currently no scientific evidence linking aluminum in antiperspirants to the development of breast cancer.

Fragrance is a big no-no in my book. 5,000k molecules are used to make fragrance, + many of those are classified as allergens, hormone disruptors, asthma triggers, neurotoxins, and carcinogens.

Phthalates are chemicals frequently used to help the scents last longer + can damage the liver, kidney, + reproductive system.•Triclosan is an anti-bacterial chemical that eliminates the bacteria that causes odor. It mimics hormones and interferes with hormone signaling.•Parabens are a preservative that are absorbed through the skin and acts as a hormone mimicker

It's time to Taylor Swift this crap!

 

If a company needs to hide their ingredients to protect themselves from competitors, they are not putting consumer health first. Boy-bye.

 

Welcome, Clean Deo!

The Clean Deo comes in three safer scents: Clean Rose, Fresh Coconut, and Soft Lavender. As with all the fragrances Beautycounter uses, they rigorously screened The Clean Deo fragrances for trace contaminants {which are often present in raw materials} to ensure they meet their strict safety standards. All fragrance ingredients are also disclosed on the ingredient list, so you know exactly what is in each one. This is why I LOVE Beautycounter. They have nothing to hide!

•Clean Rose: A modern bouquet of freshly cut roses, with notes of geranium and pepper tree berry. 

•Fresh Coconut: A refreshing blend of tropical coconut, sandalwood, and sweet vanilla.

•Soft Lavender: Soothing notes of lavender.

 

 

Have issues with baking soda in the past?

Based on their consumer perception testing, 100% of users said the product is non-irritating. If you have had previous reactions to baking soda, this may not be the product for you. If you have sensitive skin, I recommend a patch test on the inside of your wrist prior to full underarm application.  There is a 60-day no-hassle promise. 

Refill it, baby!

Yes, you can purchase refills with different scents, and they will fit into your existing Deo case.
