NATURAL DEODORANT FORMULA
The base of this formula is the potassium alum, a mineral salt used since centuries as a natural deodorant, which has been shown to have antimicrobial properties. It doesn’t block the sweat glands, allowing you to sweat naturally, but it is very efficient in combating bacterias so you don’t get that ‘sweaty’ odour. It is important to not confuse this ingredient with simple aluminium which has smaller particles that get released and absorbed by our skin, being very toxic. Potassium alum, on the contrary is completely safe for our skin being certified for natural cosmetic.
Combined with citric acid gives this formula a low pH, more close to the skin pH making it perfect for normal or sensitive skin. White clay absorbs the armpit humidity and the vegetable gycerin moisturises the skin. The lavender essential oil soothes the skin.
HOW TO USE
1.Put one drop on the finger without touching the bottle.
2.Apply the drop under the armpit and spread it.
3.Store away from direct sun and preferable more fresh and dark.
It is quite common that in the first few days the deodorant does’t work so well because the bacteria in our sweat need some time to adapt to the new product. Continue to use for a few days straight.
Its very important to not touch the opening of the bottle to avoid introducing bacterias in the liquid inside the bottle which could cause the deodorant to go bad quickly, since the product only has a very mild preservative.
TRANSITION TO A NATURAL DEODORANT
The transition to a natural deodorant can be a very different experience for everyone. Most people don’t notice any difference, but some can have an initial period of increased sweat or even an itchy feeling or a small rash. This reaction can happen because since the natural deodorant doesn’t block the sweat, the armpit tends to be more moist and the friction of the skin produces an irritation called chafing. This is a normal process and if it occurs it’s only in the first days. If this feeling remains after a few days then you might have a allergic reaction and you should stop using it. You can also feel a stronger odor in the beginning since the bacterias that inhabit the armpit (and are ultimately responsible for the odor) are also adapting. Your body needs some time to find a balance. Allow it.

Decidi entrar a matar e usar pela primeira vez num dia de treino (intenso). Não quero acreditar. Não só não tenho qualquer odor, como fiquei com a pele extremamente macia! É muito poupado, realmente uma gota por axila chega. Usei roupa branca e não manchou nada. Só me arrependo de não ter encontrado mais cedo. Impecável!

Olá boa tarde comprei um desodorizante vosso, mas contém alumínio que é altamente cancerígeno. Logo não se pode chamar natural a este desodorizante.Seria interessante mudarem a formula.

Olá boa tarde, antes de mais muito obrigada pelo comentário dando-me assim oportunidade de esclarecer este mal entendido.
O nosso desodorizante nao tem alumínio em si mas sim pó de alúmen, nome cientifico Potassium Alum, composto por sais de potássio e por sulfato de alumínio que nao é absorvido pela pele porque as particulas sao de uma dimensao elevada e nao solta aluminio. Ou seja nao tem nada a ver com os desodorizantes convencionais que utilizam aluminio que sim é absorvido pela pele e que bloqueia o nosso suor natural, sendo altamente tóxico.
O pó de alumen é completamente aceite na cosmética natural exactamente porque nao coloca nenhum risco para a nossa saúde. Talvez já tenha visto a pedra de alumen á venda em lojas organicas como o Celeiro, é exactamente o mesmo ingrediente simplesmente em forma de pó.

Além disso como qualquer ingrediente a concentracao influencia bastante o nivel de risco para a saúde, por isso se tal fosse um porblema também podemos garantir que o nosso desodorizante apenas tem 2,5% de potassio alum.
Pode ler um pouco mais sobre este ingrediente na base de dados independente EWG que avalia o risco para a saúde de ingredientes cosméticos https://www.ewg.org/skindeep/ingredients/705178-POTASSIUM_ALUM/
Espero que fique mais esclarecida e de uma nova chance ao nosso desodorizante desenvolvido com muito carinho! Obrigada

I tried this deodorant and in the beginning my body had to adapt to a more ‘natural’ product but after this my experience has been great. I recommend it .
