Choose your scent:
Unscented*
Lemongrass and Tea Tree
Grapefruit and Mandarin
Lavender and Bergamot
50g sticks – lasted over 2 months in our tests. How long it will last for you depends on how liberal you are with your daily application.
*The unscented version is suitable for pregnant women and for those with extremely sensitive skin as it contains no fragrances or essential oils or bicarbonate of soda.
To use:
Push gently from underneath the tube to make the deodorant pop up out of the top, then rub on your armpits as much as you feel is required. If the deodorant is a bit cold, hold it against your skin for a few seconds before applying to warm it up to skin temperature, so that it can be applied smoothly. Any excess product on your skin that hasn’t fully melted can be rubbed in with your fingers. Keep out of direct sunlight and away from heat sources (so that it doesn’t melt), if it is a bit too melty, stick it in the fridge for a short time to help it reset. Be aware - Wait until your pits are fully dry/absorbed before putting clothes on as this deodorant can leave white marks.
Kutis Bicarb-Free Deodorant Stick
If you’ve tried other plastic-free deodorants only to be left with a stinging sensation in your armpits*, then you are probably sensitive to the ingredient bicarbonate of soda. This isn’t an allergy normally, but a sensitivity, as it can develop over time through repeated use. …Not ideal when you are desperate to use a plastic-free deodorant, but find that all you try leave you sore or smelly.
After extensive testing, and, believe me, you wouldn’t have wanted to come close to us for some of that testing period, we have found a plastic-free and bicarb-free deodorant that will keep your pits fresh and should suit your sensitive souls! The magic ingredient in this deodorant is Magnesium Hydroxide. It works as an antiperspirant and can be found as an ingredient in plenty of deodorant brands. (The runner up used the same ingredient as this brand, but smelt like vegetable peelings… not exactly most people’s preferred scent.)
It can even be used after shaving – something that was a definite no-no for some when using the bicarb deodorants.
*No, that’s not the devil possessing your armpit – Believe it or not, we received an email from a customer saying this after they had tried our other deodorant… that is not even the half of what they said. Strangest email we’ve ever had hands down! So, just to put any demons to rest, we can confirm that all our products are devil-free. Here at ABP, we encourage a daily exorcise regime to keep our team happy, healthy and unpossessed.
