FAQs | Bare’s Natural Deodorants
The latest addition to our zero waste personal care products is our refreshing deodorants. Here’s a quick round up of all the questions we have received from our Bare Fam.
Yes, they are!
Our deodorants are made with natural, earth friendly ingredients. A blend of Arrowroot Extract, Coconut Oil, Cacao Seed Butter, Apricot Oil, among others making for a safe, gentle on your skin. It is completely free of chemicals such as aluminiums, baking soda, parabens and phthalates
2. Do they effectively control odour?
Did you know that sweat itself doesn’t stink, but the bacteria that thrive on it do? These bacteria love warm, moist areas, which is exactly what sweat creates. As they chomp away, they produce nasty odours.
To tackle this, we have used Magnesium hydroxide as a key ingredient in our deodorant to neutralise odour. Magnesium hydroxide creates an alkaline environment on the skin’s surface, making it less conducive for the growth of bacteria.
Our deodorants are designed to keep you feeling fresh and confident throughout the day.
