Choose All Natural Aluminum Free Deodorants That Heal and Nourish The Skin
Not everyone knows that natural skincare products usually include deodorants as part of their skincare line. Also, not everyone is aware that the active ingredient in most store bought deodorants is aluminum. Natural deodorant should be aluminum free and still work to keep unwanted body odor away.
Why is Aluminum in Deodorant Unhealthy?
Aluminum is used in store-bought deodorants and antiperspirants to stop sweating. However, aluminum typically achieves this goal by clogging the pores in the underarms, which can lead to ingrown hairs and rashes. Also, aluminum absorption in the body is not healthy because it’s been a factor in causing breast cancer, Alzheimer’s disease and brain disorders in toxicity studies!
However, there’s good news: natural skincare products that offer a deodorant won’t contain harmful ingredients like aluminum, but will fight body odor and perspiration the natural way. Natural skincare products, like natural deodorants, work with nature to prevent body odor, but don’t fully stop nature’s physiological response like most store bought deodorant with aluminum.
Why Do We Experience Perspiration and Body Odor?
Underarm perspiration is the body’s natural response designed to cool down the body and regulate salt levels. When pores are clogged with aluminum from regular deodorants, this process is often inhibited. Sweat itself is odorless, but when it’s excreted, bacteria often forms to break up the sweat, and it’s actually that bacteria that causes body odor.
Body odor is also linked to diet, meaning that certain foods promote increased body odor, like meat, but also an unstable metabolism and hormones can lead to unwanted body odor.
Yogurt helps increase healthy bacteria in the body and can help naturally fight the occurrence of body odor-causing bacteria. Deodorants from natural skincare product lines are ideal for fighting these unwanted occurrences.
Benefits of Natural Deodorant
If you suffer from a skin problem like acne and use natural acne skincare, you’ll likely discover that a natural deodorant is part of that product line as well, as underarms have skincare needs too. Natural deodorants work to block bacterial growth without clogging pores and use organic ingredients like lemon oil, lavender oil, rosemary oil, arrowroot extract and coconut oil to fight body odor and perspiration the natural way.
Natural deodorants, unless you have a specific allergy to one of the natural ingredients, won’t cause skin irritation or allergic reactions. Also, natural deodorants soothe and moisturize the skin, instead of just drying it out to prevent perspiration.
Skin of Life is a natural acne skincare company with natural skincare products, including deodorant options for both men and women. All their products are free of chemicals, pesticides, herbicides and artificial fragrances, including their roll-on and solid natural deodorants.
If you take your health and skincare seriously or just weren’t aware of the main active ingredient in your favorite deodorant, consider switching to a natural deodorant that is part of a natural acne skincare line. Natural skincare products that are truly organic and natural, with no harsh ingredients, is important for your skin’s and body’s overall health.
