Unless you’re as cool and likable as Matthew McConaughey or Bradley Cooper, who admittedly go sans deodorant, you’re likely going to need something under your armpits to keep a few friends around. And if the list of ingredients on the back of your current pit stick has you on the fence, Aesop’s botanical based Déodorant Spray might be the best option to help stave off your odor.
Most deodorants are full of colorants, mineral oils, silicones, parabens, and other compounds like aluminum which is specifically meant to clog your pores to prevent sweating. In contrast, the Australian born company’s botanical Déodorant Spray has a list of ingredients that sound more like a classy Starbucks tea than something you put under your arm. It gets its woody, herbaceous and earthy notes from a laundry list of essential oils and natural ingredients including Vetiver Root, Zinc Ricinoleate and Coriander Seed among others.
While the ill effects of chemicals used in traditional deodorants and antiperspirants is a controversial topic, we tend to lean towards being overly cautious when it comes to caring for the largest organ we have (our skin). Aesop’s products are considered vegan and do not include animal-derived or animal-produced ingredients (such as beeswax or honey) and are never tested on animals. Good on ya’ Aesop.
