The Perks of Switching to a Natural Deodorant

The Perks of Switching to a Natural Deodorant

Its not secret, we all need a little something extra to help keep us feeling our freshest. Especially when it comes to our underarm area, between shaving, waxing, going to the gym, and just always being on the go, this area takes on a lot. Deodorant is part of most of our daily rituals and its that little saviour that helps us feel clean before we head out the door in the morning. But have you ever wondered what goes into typical store bought deodorants? Do we really know what all of these ingredients on these labels mean and what are they really doing for our bodies? Don't sweat it, lets clear it up.

 What’s is your deodorant

We have enough to worry about, we really don't need to be worrying about what's going on our armpits, so lets break it down. Typical store bought deodorants contain ingredients like Aluminum, Triclosan, Parabens and Synthetic Fragrances. Don't worry if you've barely heard of any of these things you're not alone. Most of these ingredients serve the purposes of keeping your armpits clean, smelling nice, and preserving the overall product. Which sound great, in theory, but do they really sound the safest for our skin? Aluminum is supposed to help you sweat less and paragons as well as Triclosan get rid of harmful bacteria, which sound like the perfect combination from a deodorant. However both of these ingredients have been found to cause defects in estrogen levels, contribute to chances of getting breast cancer, and causing overall damage to the surrounding tissue of the underarm. Synthetic fragrances give you all of those amazing scents that these commercial products can offer, but is it really that amazing? It makes you wonder what actually goes into making these wonderful-ish scents. According to the FDA there is enough chemicals in these synthetic ingredients to cause severe allergic reactions of the skin and respiratory system.

 

WHY GO O-NATURAL

Making the switch to natural deodorant is a great way to ensure that you have the odour protection you want without sacrificing your overall health. These products are filled with ingredients that naturally provide a soothing layer to the skin, instead of drying it out. But do they really keep you dry and smelling pretty? YES From shea butters, to tea tree oil, you will have not only have the cleanest pits in town but you will also have the softest. As for the smell, naturally scented ingredients from essential oils and extracts are used to create the perfect combination of smells, you'll want to try them all. As for the environment which is a huge part of these products, these products come in compostable eco friendly packaging and use ingredients that wont harm our planet what so ever.
