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.
