Woohoo Body Armpit Detox Mask

For some lucky people (about 50%), ditching aluminium-based antiperspirants and switching to natural deodorant is a breeze. Their natural deodorant starts working right away and they get right back to being amazing without giving their deodorant a 2nd thought.

However, for the rest of us (the *other* 50%), it doesn’t work immediately, and we’ve got to go through an armpit detox cleanse before our natural deodorant will control body odour. 

This is because antiperspirants block, or “plug”, your pores with aluminium salts, which stops the natural sweating process. 

They often also disrupt the balance of good and bad bacteria in your armpits because they have antibacterial agents in them and kill all bacteria - good and bad. This makes it hard for natural deodorants to work effectively because bad bacteria = more smell, good bacteria = less smell!

If your natural deodorant hasn't been working, don't give up! It just takes some patience and know-how (HINT: this clever little Armpit Detox Mask will get you over the line). 

And once your natural deodorant is working for you, you’ll be able to rely on it all day long, and then some. So it’s worth being a little persistent. Your body just needs some time to get back into the swing of things and to lose your reliance on the aluminium “plugs” to stop body odour and allow your good bacteria to regenerate. This is what we call your ‘detox period’. 

How long is the detox cleanse period?

Luckily your body is pretty smart so it only takes a few days (about 4 days is most common).

It can take longer though – we’ve heard from one dedicated soul that took 8 weeks. That person needs a medal because I don’t think many of us would have stuck it out that long, especially as it can get worse before it gets better (but that person didn’t have our Armpit Detox Mask to help speed things up).

There are a couple of things you can do to help speed up the process of cleansing and clearing your pores of aluminium, and the most effective is by using an Armpit Detox Mask like this one. 

We have formulated this mask using a blend of clays and silver to deeply cleanse your armpits. It's very powerful without being harsh or drying to your skin.

It acts almost like a magnet, unblocking your pores and helping your microbiome readjust so you can start rocking your new natural deodorant.

• Kaolin Clay - cleans and removes impurities from your pores. It absorbs excess oil, calms redness and helps the natural functioning of your skin.
• Zeolite Clay - is rich in silica, potassium and iron. Its negative charged ions attract positive charged ions which neutralizes toxins and rebalances your skin. 
• Colloidal Silver - has healing, anti inflammatory and special anti bacterial properties which makes it an exciting inclusion in the detox mask. The silver helps to restore your skin’s optimal microflora balance for overall great skin health by removing the bad bacteria and allowing the good bacteria to regenerate (different to other anti-bacterials!).
• Bentonite Clay - another super absorber. It works in combination with kaolin and zeolite to absorb and remove unwanted impurities from your skin which keeps your skin healthy and fresh.
