Meet Your Favorite New Clean Deodorant

Have you made the switch from antiperspirant to deodorant yet?

If you haven’t because you’ve been too worried, I get it, but let me reassure you that you can do this and your body wants you to! Sure, antiperspirants control and prevent sweat but they’re usually made from ingredients like aluminum that can plug sweat ducts and prevent your body’s natural detox process.

So, why is sweating so good for you? Because it is natural and necessary – and I promise you will get used to it! Sweating helps your body detox, removing heavy metals, BPAs and other toxins, and also regulates your temperature. Sure, a deodorant won’t stop you from sweating but it will absorb sweat and neutralize odor – and yes, you may experience a temporary odor as you switch to deodorant, but it won’t last long and follow this tip for an easy and safer armpit detox!

Now, like many things, switching to a new product can take some significant trial and error and that’s definitely been my case in my search over the years for a safer, clean deodorant.

Trying out many different brands has been key and quickly made me realize how important it is to do some test runs – yup, I remember trying one out during a hot day in Disney World and let’s just say that it did not fare well, ha!

So, when I had the chance to try out new Beautycounter’s Clean Deo, which has been years in the making, I was so excited – not only because its made from safer ingredients without aluminum (hell yes to non-GMO cornstarch and baking soda to absorb wetness and control body odor, coconut oil and shea butter to nourish and smooth and candelilla wax and beeswax to condition and hydrate skin), but because it’s sustainable, too! Yup, after buying the whole component, you can reorder just refills, which reduces water use, fossil fuel use and greenhouse gas emissions by an estimated 47%!!

And I was extra excited because it actually works, YES! I’ve been using the Clean Deo for months – through summer heat and humidity, intense work outs, homeschooling, pandemic stress, you name it – and it has been amazing. It’s available in three scents, Clean Rose, Soft Lavender and Coconut (no synthetic fragrances here), and is non-irritating, glides on smooths and vegan, too!
