Buy Refill: Unscented Deodorant Refill Capsule How to use: This concentrated deodorant is strong and effective. Use only one light swipe per armpit. Not recommended for sensitive skin. Transition period from aluminum deodorant: Aluminum based antiperspirants include big brand products, as well as alternative products like crystal sticks, alum sticks and mineral salt sticks. When switching away from these, you might experience a detox effect for a few days to a couple weeks. What we mean by detoxing is: you may be more stinky and sweaty at first while your body is ridding itself of the buildup that has accumulated with antiperspirant use. Antiperspirants block the pores so sweat can’t get out. Your body needs to sweat to remove waste. Re-apply as needed: You may want to reapply during the first few weeks until the detoxing is finished. To reapply, first wipe the area dry, then just use one or two light swipes to refresh your protection. After the detox period, the deodorant should last all day without need to reapply. Each deodorant tube lasts one person around 4-6 months with proper application of 1 light swipe per armpit. Keep closed when not using to retain moisture and avoid any drying out.
