5 Dangerous Ingredients in conventional deodorants you should avoid

5 Dangerous Ingredients in conventional deodorants you should avoid

Not gonna lie, we like to brag on our clean products especially The Best Deodorant! 


​Our deodorant is our #1 selling product year round, no fail, reaching new customers every single day. Why? Because clean deodorant is a must do for all of us. Yes, it is still a choice, but once you know the dangers of conventional deodorants you just can't "un know" it😱.

We wouldn't swallow a spoonful of toxic ingredients, but for some reason we are ok smearing them all over our bodies with skincare and our underarms with deodorant, which actually may be worse!

​Here's the truth👉 - when we eat something our bodies break it down through our digestive system, but when we place something on our skin it enters our bloodstream directly...NO FILTER!

Conventional deodorants are filled with endocrine disruptors, these are chemicals that mess with your body's reproductive and developmental hormones. Some of these chemicals are absorbed through your skin and stored in your fat cells. Kind of a big deal right?!? We think so!

☠️ 5 Dangerous ingredients conventional deodorants + skincare contain:


+parabens - preservative linked to estrogen interference


+aluminum - metal linked to tumor growth


​+triclosan - disrupts your skins bacteria balance + thyroid function


​+phthalates - compounds that makes fragrance "stick" around and is linked to testosterone disruption


​+fragrance - it's impossible to know what chemicals are concealed under this word because scents are protected under the law and do not have to be disclosed

Even natural deodorants can cause irritation! from widely used baking soda
​which can itch, stain your clothes and clog your pores, as well as butters and oils that can do the same. Most include heavy use of essential oils to "cover up" smell, and some even contain animal products😢

NOW you know🙏

READING LABELS matters, even when it comes to our skincare. We are our own best advocate when it comes to our health. We get to decide what goes in our bodies!

​Just say no to toxic chemicals☠️

Creating delicious recipes to feed the belly is one thing, creating delicious recipes to feed the skin is another. Or is it......

Applying the same principals I studied and applied to reverse my multiple sclerosis with real whole food, I applied to my skincare and it has proven to be pure magic. Leaving behind the chemical laden conventional beauty products that once lined my bathroom shelves, now replaced with clean, organic, food grade skincare products that have my skin healthier than it has ever been.

I designed be well skincare products by creating recipes to feed the skin and work synergistically together becoming force multipliers when combined. My recipes keep you and your health first with every recipe I create, bypassing all fillers, emulsifiers, preservatives and every other nasty that fills most beauty products today.

How does the beauty industry get away with loading their products with known toxins you ask? Because our beauty industry is basically the wild wild west with zero regulations. Companies can say and do as they wish, and yes, even lie to us.

Once I discovered this simple yet shocking reality we live in, I set out to create safe clean skin food I could trust while delivering even better results.

be well skincare aims to have every ingredient listed on our labels recognizable to our customers, zero googling required. If you recognize an ingredient as food, so will your body, it's that simple. When we consume food our body actually has several filters; however, with skincare there are no filters because once it's applied to our skin it goes directly into our bloodstream. 

What can I make for you today?

 

Love & be well,
