What is the difference between The Deodorant and The Deodorant Gel?

The Deodorant and The Deodorant Gel both contain Mandelic Acid, Vitamin B3 and Vitamin B5 for clean odor control and less shaving bumps. The Deodorant is a no-residue solid stick ideal for normal-to-heavy odor control. The Deodorant Gel is a clear quick-dry serum-in-gel ideal for light-to-normal odor control.

Answer


Why is The Deodorant formulated with Mandelic Acid?

The Deodorant and The Deodorant Gel are both formulated with Mandelic Acid to provide a low pH environment that inhibits the growth of odor-causing bacteria. While Mandelic Acid's primary role is to help provide clean odor control, the gentle exfoliation also helps to minimize shaving bumps.

Answer


Why is The Deodorant formulated without Ozokerite?

Nécessaire adheres to EU ingredient standards and EU ingredient listing. All ingredients inclusive of all incidentals are captured on our ingredient labels. During our development process of The Deodorant our clinical team and vendor partners were not able to find a clean Ozokerite as base for our formula. The available sources of Ozokerite that we found had incidental traces of BHT or Paraffin. We therefore used Sunflower Wax as our base. A Sunflower Wax base is softer which means that there can be slight dome imperfections, but we welcome those imperfections in exchange for better ingredients.

Answer


Does The Deodorant contain Aluminum?

The Deodorant is Aluminum-Free, Baking Soda-Free, Ozokerite-Free, Paraben-Free, PEG-Free and Silicone-Free. The Deodorant adheres to EU formulation standard and EU ingredient listing. All ingredients inclusive of all incidentals are captured on the ingredient labeling across website and on pack. The Deodorant is dermatologist-tested, hypoallergenic and non-comedogenic.

Answer


Can I use The Deodorant after I shave?

The Deodorant is formulated with Mandelic Acid. Do not apply directly after shave. If you wish to try, we suggest a patch test.

    Obsessed

    I need more products in this scent! I was leery to try a natural deodorant, but I'm hooked now because this one actually worked.

    New Holy Grail

    Amazing. I know some folks aren't in love with the smell, but it's so soft and comforting and sensual, and my husband commented on how much he likes it. Better odor control than any antiperspirant I've ever tried. Doesn't transfer to clothes or get them greasy (although I am still cautious), doesn't irritate my sensitive skin, doesn't give me synthetic fragrance headaches. Honestly, don't sleep on this. It's amazing.

    Best deodorant ever

    I have been searching for an aluminum free deodorant for a very long time and I am happy to say that I have finally found it! There's nothing about The Deodorant I don't love-the texture, the performance, and this scent-just amazing!

    The best

    This is the best natural deodorant I’ve ever used- and I’ve tried SOO many. Perfect for sensitive skin, and the scent lasts into the next day (seriously). This is my new holy grail I’ll never go back to any other natural deodorant brand.
