Switching to natural deodorant - simply to deodorant without aluminum

Natural cosmetics are in vogue. More and more people are doing without care products with chemical ingredients. But what has long been accepted and accepted in skincare does not yet fully apply to deodorants.

Many of us still find it difficult to switch from our usual products to natural cosmetics. Many do not dare to make the switch to natural deodorants for the time being.

There are many reasons for this, but two concerns stand out in particular: worries about a lack of hygiene and fear of body odor.

In a natural deodorant, manufacturers do not use aluminum, which is almost always present in large quantities in conventional deodorants.

The aluminum prevents perspiration and thus also the associated unpleasant odor, but can be harmful to health.

Here we reveal how the switch to natural deodorant works without any problems, what you need to bear in mind and the best tips and tricks for switching to natural products.

 Why deodorant without aluminum?

Aluminum in deodorant prevents perspiration. But this comes at a price. The aluminum causes the pores to contract, closing off the sweat glands. This naturally reduces the amount of sweat that comes out, but there is a risk of the pores becoming permanently blocked.

In addition, the skin absorbs the aluminum without being able to excrete it afterwards.

Aluminum, which is a toxic substance for us humans, remains in the body. Although in small quantities, even small amounts of aluminum can cause damage in the long term.

Other toxins are also no longer easily removed by the blocked sweat glands. This also damages your health in the long term.

Sweating is a natural form of regulation and self-cleansing of the body. Clogged sweat glands hinder this important process.

Natural deodorants do not prevent the natural formation of perspiration, but rather start with the formation of odors.

Natural active ingredients prevent unpleasant sweat odors without supplying the body with toxins or preventing the sweat glands from doing their work.

Another advantage of natural deodorants: Natural deodorants are environmentally friendly, which cannot be said of products containing aluminum.

Most producers of natural deodorants already pay attention to sustainability and environmental protection during production. This starts with the packaging - many also do without plastic.

The deodorant often comesin a glass bottle or alternative packaging.  

How does deodorant without aluminum work and is it effective?

Instead of closing the sweat glands, natural deodorants focus on preventing unpleasant odors.

But how exactly does aluminum-free deodorant work?

There are two ways to do this with a natural deodorant.

On the one hand, the smell of sweat is masked by the natural and fresh scent of the natural deodorant, while on the other aluminium-free deodorants contain antibacterial ingredients that fight bacteria and neutralize the smell.

Sweat only smells unpleasant because numerous bacteria form during sweating. If bacteria do not form, sweat no longer smells.

In many deodorants, which do not require aluminum, a combination of both works. Antibacterial active ingredients that prevent the formation of odours work together with natural ingredients that neutralize any remaining odours and mask them with a fresh scent.

Citrus fruit ingredients are popular, as they have an antibacterial effect and a pleasant, fresh smell, just as we want for our personal hygiene.

Natural deodorant is applied in the same way as conventional deodorant. The deodorant is applied to the armpits after washing or showering. Depending on the product, the effect lasts for around 12 to 48 hours.

Both deodorant sticks and sprays are available. Unlike chemical deodorants with aluminum, however, the natural deodorant sprays usually come in high-quality and environmentally friendly packaging such as glass bottles.

How easy is it toswitch to natural deodorant at ?

Switching to natural deodorant from a deodorant with aluminum works for most people without much preparation or adjustment, as most natural deodorants are on a par with classic deodorants in terms of protection and odor prevention.

In general, the following also applies: The higher the quality of the natural deodorant and its ingredients, the more successful the transition will be.

For beginners, we have a natural deodorant on offer that works completely without a transition phase.

Even after the first application, users feel protected against odors, just like with their conventional deodorant. One customer reports:

"The previous skepticism disappeared after the first application. A pleasant fragrance and the fine spray gave me peace of mind all day long. And all without aluminum.... top product."

A good deodorant without animal testing - and without aluminum, zinc and parabens.

This is made possible by a composition of antibacterial herbal ingredients and the essential oil of lemon verbena.

Natural deodorant - Good deodorant without animal testing 

Unfortunately, animal testing of chemical cosmetic products is still widespread. Those who refrain from using products that have been tested on animals are not only doing something good for themselves, but are also protecting other living creatures at the same time.

In the vast majority of cases, manufacturers of natural deodorants do not test on animals.

As the products are less aggressive and contain little to no chemical ingredients, safety can be guaranteed without harming animals in advance.

Turning away from the outdated practices of the cosmetics industry is also a holistic philosophy. Nature, animals and people should be protected and not burdened.

Feuerstein Essentials embodies this philosophy: only local ingredients are used for Feuerstein Essentials products, e.g. Swiss Alpine herbs.

The result: a good deodorant without animal testing. 

Further tips for better hygiene and a safe feeling of hygiene:

1. Try toban aggressive soaps and shower gels from your hygiene routine. While the effect may seem positive at first, chemical products attack the skin's protective acid mantle. In the long term, this promotes the formation of odors, not only in the armpit area.
2. Drink a glass of warm water or tea with a dash of lemonevery day. This cleanses the body from the inside and provides a vitamin C boost. However, use the lemon sparingly to avoid acidifying your stomach.
3. You should not give up Sport even after switching to natural deodorant, on the contrary. If the body cansweat out pollutants unhindered (unlike with aluminum deodorant) , this has a cleansing effect and is good for you.

Not as difficult as you might think: the simple switch to natural deodorant without aluminum.

Try it now.
