We worked on our unisex Naturally Sourced Deodorant formula for a long time before we finally developed one that not only felt great on your skin but also worked!
Contains Coconut Oil, Beeswax, Shea Butter, Cetyl Alcohol (thickener), Zinc Ricinoleate, Bentonite, Zinc Oxide, Essential Oils (bergamot, lime) and Vitamin E.
What doesn't it contain? Baking soda (can leave your pits feeling dry and irritated) or aluminum.
What is Zinc Ricinoleate? Zinc ricinoleate is the zinc salt of ricinoleic acid, a major fatty acid found in castor seed oil obtained from the seeds of the Ricinus communis plant. Zinc ricinoleate works in that it chemically fixes (traps & absorbs) odor molecules formed during bacterial decomposition of perspiration. It does not inhibit transpiration and is not an antiperspirant. Zinc ricinoleate has no bactericidal or fungicidal properties so does not interfere with the natural flora of the skin.
Apply a small amount to clean, dry underarms. Rub gently with your hand to distribute evenly. Using excess amounts can result in transfer onto clothing.
