Product Description

Spiced Patchouli Woody Natural Deodorant - A handcrafted natural deodorant formulated with odour neutralising oils.

An all natural deodorant

This all-natural deodorant has been formulated with a selection of soothing butters and oils, absorbing clay and essential oils that naturally neutralise odours.

Housed in a cardboard push-up tube, this deodorant not only has the advantage of being toxin and aluminium free but is sustainable and plastic-free packaging too! Unlike most non-natural products on the market, a natural deodorant does not block your sweat glands and allows you to sweat naturally but stops the unpleasant smells.

Made with High Quality Natural Ingredients

An exotic blend of eastern inspired scents, this deodorant is both sweet and spicy; a delightful woody smell. Using patchouli, coriander seed and vanilla, the scent is spiced and woody and would suit as both a masculine or unisex fragrance. Patchouli is naturally deodorising with odour removing and anti bacteria properties making it a perfect ingredient for a deodorant.

Toxins and Aluminium Salt Free

Aluminium salts are what you’ll find in all anti-perspirants, and it works by plugging the sweat glands stopping any perspiration whatsoever. Effective, however aluminium has been linked to various nasty diseases. It is for this reason many of us have been looking to alternatives and embracing our natural sweating but minimising the odour that comes with it.

Before we start telling you all about the fabulous ingredients included in this formulation, let us first talk about why we think you ought to ditch the big brand mainstream deodorants and switch to a natural option.

First and foremost – there is a difference between a deodorant and an anti-perspirant. A deodorant does exactly what the name suggests. It ‘deodorises’ the bad smells associated with sweat whereas an anti-perspirant stops the sweat altogether. And the only ingredient known to stop perspiration altogether is aluminium.

Aluminium salts are what you’ll find in all anti-perspirants, and it works by plugging the sweat glands stopping any perspiration whatsoever. Effective, however aluminium has been linked to various nasty diseases. It is for this reason many of us have been looking to alternatives and embracing our natural sweating but minimising the odour that comes with it.

So let us take a look at what’s in this deodorant that can help keep you smelling sweet without blocking those glands!

Sodium Bicarbonate: A natural anti bacteria salt that acts as the active ingredient here to neutralise and stop bad smells. The PH of sodium bicarbonate is alkali which helps counterbalance the acidic sweat. On its own, sodium bicarbonate can be an irritation to skin however we have carefully paired it with moisturising oils and butters to allow the bicarb to do its job without irritating your skin.

Essential Oils: An exotic blend of eastern inspired scents, this deodorant is both sweet and spicy; a delightful woody smell. Using patchouli, coriander seed and vanilla, the scent is spiced and woody and would suit as both a masculine or unisex fragrance. Patchouli is naturally deodorising with odour removing and anti bacteria properties making it a perfect ingredient for a deodorant.

Moisture absorbers: To help soak up some of that sweat the deodorant contains natural kaolin clay and arrowroot powder. Both these elements take on the moisture and help to absorb excess sweat. Kaolin clay helps draw out toxins and unblocks pores so is great for detoxifying your armpits after years of anti-perspirant use.

The deodorant comes as a solid in a push-up tube. Unlike a spray which can burn this product can be applied with ease. There is no roller-ball applicator either to trap hairs.

Handcrafted in Northamptonshire, using only natural ingredients, The Ilex Wood offers clean, simple and effective skin care for those looking for a kind non-toxic green beauty routine.

Nothing unnatural. Nothing complicated. Nothing toxic.
