It’s the bacteria in your underarms that cause body odor. They feed on your sweat and release the smells we all know too well.
Most mainstream antiperspirants use aluminum to reduce sweating by clogging your sweat glands. Over time, those clogged pores can trap sweat, dead skin, deodorant residue, and both living and dead bacteria, creating buildup.
Using an aluminum free deodorant and exfoliating regularly can help clear out that buildup and keep your underarms feeling cleaner, fresher, and more balanced naturally.
