• No aluminium: Aluminium is a common anti-perspirant additive that prevents perspiration. However, it is a skin irritant, clogs pores and has been linked to an increased risk of Alzheimer’s disease.

• No alcohol: Used extensively in perfumes and other cosmetics, but over time can cause dryness and irritation.

• No parabens. Used as preservatives in almost all cosmetics. Parabens can cause skin irritation, contact dermatitis, skin allergies and are surrounded by breast cancer controversy.

• No petrochemicals: Used in almost all cosmetics as cheap and effective fragrances, colourants and other ingredients; they can provoke skin allergies and destroy the natural oily barrier on the skin, leaving it dry and flaky.

• No propylene glycol: Often used in deodorants and cosmetics, it can be a skin irritant and alters skin structure, allowing potentially harmful chemicals to penetrate deeply into the skin.

Anti-perspirants inhibit natural body perspiration with pore clogging chemicals while deodorants allow perspiration, but prevent odour.
