Is my deodorant a health risk?

Did you know that a lot of high street anti perspirants contain toxins that are dangerous to our health? The most common chemical ingredients found are parabens, triclosan, phthalates, propylene glycol and aluminium. Research has linked these ingredients to several medical conditions including types of cancer and reproductive development issues.  You wouldn’t swallow these toxic ingredients so why are we putting them on our skin?

If this worries you then let me introduce you to Ku.tis Skincare who believe that the natural world provides all we need for our skin and have created natural skincare and deodorants, that contain ethically sourced organic ingredients.

 

As with all their products, these plastic-free deodorants are made in the heart of Wales and come in a 100% biodegradable paperboard push-up tube.

These eco-friendly replacements for commercial deodorants contain key ingredients such as bicarbonate of soda, arrowroot powder and coconut oil that give you the lasting freshness without all the nasty stuff that can be found in commercial deodorants. They have carefully selected blends of essential oil to ensure each scent contains anti-bacterial and odour fighting properties.  

We stock 3 of the fragrances; Lavendar & Bergamot, Lemongrass & TeaTree and the vegan deodorant stick Grapefruit & Mandarin.  Full ingredients can be found on the website here- Kutis Natural Deodorant – TheEcoFriendlyLivingCo

These gift sets include Face Serum, Shea Body Butter, Lip Balm and Face Washing Grains and again all of the ingredients for these products have been organically sourced.
