Why You Should Make the Switch to Natural Deodorant

Unfortunately, most deodorants on the market are jam-packed with harmful chemicals. When you use any type of skin care product, including deodorant, your body absorbs the ingredients. That’s why you should consider switching to high-quality natural deodorant to combat body odor throughout the day. 

 

Harmful Deodorant Ingredients

If you are trying to be more conscious about your beauty and personal care products, you have come to the right place.

Many popular deodorants contain harsh substances that can have long-term effects on your health. Unless you know what you are looking for, it can be hard to find these chemicals on the label.

Triclosan

Triclosan is included in many mainstream deodorants to kill odor-causing bacteria in your sweat. 

While this may seem like a good idea, many health concerns are linked to triclosan. It is a known endocrine disruptor, which means that this ingredient can interfere with your hormones. Hormonal issues can lead to serious health concerns. The FDA has banned triclosan in products like hand soaps, but it is still permitted in deodorants. 

Phthalates 

Phthalates are found in mainstream beauty and personal care products. This ingredient is designed to make fragrances last longer and smell stronger. The use of phthalates is linked to hormonal problems in men and women. These chemicals are also linked to early puberty in girls, which can have lifelong health consequences. 

Parabens

Parabens are another common family of ingredients used in cosmetics. They are used to preserve personal care and beauty products on the shelf. Parabens can disrupt your hormones by mimicking the effects of estrogen in your body. Since you apply deodorant to your skin, parabens can easily absorb into your system and cause problems. 

Aluminum

Many companies use aluminum in beauty products, especially in deodorant. This ingredient is used to block sweat glands from releasing perspiration. While this can have a desirable effect on your body odor, it causes problems in the long run. 

Some studies have suggested that aluminum can cause cell abnormalities and increase your risk for serious health problems in the future. It is a good idea to use aluminum-free deodorants at all times.

 

The Benefits of Aluminum-Free Deodorant

Many people are switching to deodorants that do not contain aluminum. What makes aluminum-free deodorant so special? And what are the potentially harmful effects of aluminum in beauty and skin care products? 

Aluminum salts are used in many mainstream deodorant products to block sweat from escaping the surface of your skin. This helps control moisture and odor in areas like your underarms. 

Unfortunately, blocking your body’s natural perspiration process can be harmful. Those who have made the switch recognize the many positives of using a deodorant free of aluminum. 

Allows Natural Sweating

Your body produces sweat to cool you off and release toxins from your pores. This allows your body to detoxify naturally. When this process is blocked with aluminum-based deodorant ingredients, you don’t get the full benefits of natural sweating. 

Perspiration is not a bad thing, and aluminum-free deodorants allow your skin to breathe. 

Keeps Pores Unclogged

When aluminum-based deodorants block your pores, they can become clogged with sweat, oils, and debris. This can lead to painful bumps, rashes, and body acne. 

Aluminum-free deodorants keep your pores free of harmful chemicals while still controlling unpleasant body odors. You no longer have to deal with clogged pores in your underarms and other body areas. 

Does Not Cause Skin Irritation

Aluminum-based deodorants can be irritating to your skin. If you have sensitive skin or often react to aluminum in beauty products, it’s time to switch to aluminum-free deodorant. 

Skin irritation can easily occur in your underarms, as this is a sensitive and sweat-prone area. Lessen the itching and burning on your skin by using a natural aluminum-free deodorant instead. 

Reduces Unpleasant Odors

Natural deodorants are often underestimated in the beauty world. Aluminum-free deodorant is effective at preventing and reducing unpleasant body odors. 

Plant extracts and other organic ingredients are carefully formulated to mask the scent of sweat. You still get the full benefits of using deodorant without the harmful effects of aluminum and other harsh ingredients. 

 

Underarm Hair Growth

You are probably familiar with pesky underarm hairs. If you are someone who shaves your underarms, you might be frustrated with fast hair regrowth. Shaving can cause razor burn, bumps, itching, and irritation in this sensitive area. 

Controlling your underarm hair growth doesn’t have to be complicated. With the right natural deodorant, you can combat odor and hair growth at the same time. 

Our Aluminum Free Deodorant Stick with Hair Inhibitor helps moderate hair regrowth so you can enjoy smooth, soft underarms longer. This deodorant contains aloe, chamomile, and other plant extracts to moderate your underarm hair regrowth, and even potato starch to help absorb moisture without harmful aluminum. We also have Deodorant Swipes with Hair Inhibitor for when you are on the go and need a quick underarm refresh. 

Most deodorants with artificial ingredients and strong chemicals do not help inhibit hair regrowth. This is one of the unique benefits of Whish Beauty deodorants — you can slow the growth of unwanted body hair while also controlling your scent.

And if you prefer to go au naturel, Whish also has an aluminum free deodorant without the hair inhibitor...the choice is yours.
