ALAFFIA Coconut Reishi DEODORANT

alaffia deodorant

BLACK-OWNED BRAND

The Alaffia Coconut Reishi deodorant with activated charcoal and lavender is one I discovered in 2018. What I love is the texture, it’s very creamy but without the sticky residue, and it’s much easier to move smoothly over your skin than the Ben & Anna deodorant (although that remains a favourite due to the scent). The only downside with the Alaffia deodorant is that I found it doesn’t last the whole day if I’m exercising or it’s a very hot day, but it’s perfect if I’m staying home or just going to work then going home.

It’s also important to remember that when switching from normal deodorant to a natural deodorant, it takes 2-3 weeks for your body to detox all of the build-up of aluminium and chemicals that have collected in the pores of your underarms. So you might experience 2-3 weeks of a body odour smell before the natural deodorant fully starts to work and make a difference.

Alaffia deodorant does not contain: Synthetic Fragrance, Parabens, Sulfates, Propanediol, Phthalates, Aluminum, Mineral Oil, Propylene Glycol, Triclosan or Silicone. It’s also cruelty free with no testing on animals.
