The benefits of living a more natural, minimalist lifestyle is overwhelming and sometimes we just don’t know where to begin, because literally everything we use could be improved. But for not we can start with our armpits.
It’s difficult to stray away from our beloved Secret or Degree go-to scents, but what you’re putting under your underarms could be crucial to your skin’s health. The average antiperspirant contains the active ingredient, aluminum. This is the ingredient that clogs your pores to prevent sweating, but may also interfere with estrogen levels, which your body needs to properly produce and process. We always hear about parabens, but what the heck are they? They’re ultimately chemicals, which isn’t a word we want to hear in beauty products that we put on our bodies. Parabens are present in countless products to act as a preservative, but some may disrupt hormonal estrogen functions as well, an effect that is linked to increased risk of breast cancer.Â
Don’t sweat it, Kopari is the solution to the armpit war. The coconut oil based stick deodorant is aluminum free and works with your body’s natural functions to aid as an antiperspirant. It is an invisible formula and who doesn’t want to smell like a tropical getaway?
The Kopari deodorant is 100% plant based active, so not only does it ward off odors, but it will protect the pits from bacteria that causes the odor. Their other key ingredients include coconut oil and coconut milk. The oil nourishes, hydrates and protects sensitive skin while the water provides vitamins and minerals such as Vitamin C and amino acids.
The 2oz. stick is only $14 for a one-time purchase, or you can subscribe to their auto replenishment service every few months that you choose. If you love this, you’ll go coconuts for Kopari’s other products including: coconut face creams, coconut lip scrubby, coconut body glow and so much more.
This deodorant isn’t just layering on top of odors like other brands do, but it’s an entirely new system of naturally relieving the fear of sweat, leaving you confident and refreshed. Give your armpits what they deserve.
