Fact sheet: Déodorant N°1
- Product: Natural deodorant cream in a 40 g frosted amber glass jar, applied with a fingertip
- Price: US$32 / CA$45, about three months per jar
- Where to buy: theorique.com (US and Canada) and select independent stores. Not on Amazon or other marketplaces
- Ingredients (9): Jojoba seed oil · avocado butter · rice bran wax · zinc ricinoleate · zinc oxide · tapioca starch · non-nano silver · tocopherol (vitamin E) · stearyl alcohol
- Free from: Aluminum, baking soda, essential oils, synthetic fragrance, parabens, phthalates
- How it works: Fresh sweat is nearly odorless. Skin bacteria make the smell. Non-nano silver and zinc oxide reduce odor-causing bacteria, zinc ricinoleate traps the odor molecules that remain, and tapioca starch keeps a dry finish. It's a deodorant, not an antiperspirant, so it controls odor, not sweat.
