PRO TIP
The nitty gritty
- What's a microbiome? Your skin is full of billions of microbes called a "microbiome." They work hard to maintain your skin's immunity and aid in preventing dermatitis (eczema) and psoriasis. When the natural bacteria in the microbiome are disturbed, your skin becomes vulnerable to increased inflammation and altered pH. This can cause uncomfortable rashes and skin conditions. Your microbiome feeds your body good bacteria to keep your skin's pH balanced. Read more about how deodorant affects your skin's microbiome.
- Why do we use Prebiotics in our unscented deodorant? If your skin isn't feeling healthy or fresh, it's likely that your microbiome is off. Prebiotics help keep your microbiome balanced with healthy bacteria rather than odor-causing bacteria. Just like your gut loves healthy bacteria, so does your skin!
- Our non-sticky formula dries quickly and absorbs moisture while reducing friction from hair and inflammation that comes from movement.
- This vegan deodorant formula is aluminum-free, which means sweat stains are a thing of the past. Read about the top benefits of switching to aluminum-free deodorant.
