What to Keep in Mind When Switching to a Natural Deodorant!
Our everdrop Deo Stick provides reliable protection against body odor, nourishes your skin with natural, vegan ingredients, and is also good for the environment. Completely free from aluminum, microplastics, parabens, or silicones. And the best part: The deodorant comes in a sustainable paper tube that you can easily recycle after use. This way, you're doing something good not only for yourself but also for the planet.
However, as with any transition, it may take a few days for your body to adjust to the new deodorant. Don’t worry, this is completely normal! We’ll explain what happens during this phase and how to make the transition as smooth as possible.
Why Does the Body Need Time to Adjust?
Fresh Start – How Your Sweat Glands Regenerate
Many conventional deodorants, especially antiperspirants, actively block sweat glands. This means that during the use of aluminum-based deodorants, your body’s natural sweat production has been restricted for a long time. Once you switch to a natural deodorant, your sweat glands return to their natural rhythm. You might sweat more in the first few days as your body gets used to its original function again.
Natural Care – How Your Skin Adjusts
Conventional deodorants often contain synthetic chemicals like parabens or phthalates that mask sweat and odor. Natural deodorants, like our everdrop Deo Stick, use plant-based ingredients that work gently but may require some time to adjust. Your skin needs to get used to the new ingredients, which might lead to a slight odor or increased sweating at the beginning.
4 Tips for a Smooth Transition
Tip #1: Skip Deodorant for a Day Even though it may feel unusual, taking a deodorant-free day can help give your body a chance to detox. This is especially helpful if you’ve been using aluminum-based deodorants for a long time, as it allows your pores to open and your skin to recover. This way, your sweat glands can better adjust to the new deodorant.
Tip #2: Be Patient Give your body the time it needs – this might take a few days. During this period, your body will bring sweat production back into balance. This means that you might sweat a bit more at first. But don’t panic – this is completely normal!
Tip #3: Wash Your Armpits in Between Especially during the transition, it can be helpful to wash your armpits regularly. This will remove excess sweat and bacteria that cause odor. To get the best results, make sure to apply the deodorant directly after showering.
Tip #4: Dry Your Armpits and Reapply Deodorant If you notice you’re sweating more than usual, it can help to dry your armpits with a tissue in between. This way, you can remove the sweat immediately and reapply deodorant if needed. After a few days, you’ll find that you only need to apply the deodorant once a day – less is truly more!
