Being beautiful is not just about the looks. Sure you’ve got the pretty, long flowing hair and flawless, glowing skin, but have you stopped to smell the flowers lately? …Or yourself even? There’s no bigger turn-off than body odor, so girl, read on because Human Nature has just the thing to keep you smelling fresh without the risk of cancer.

Sweating is inevitable. Everyone sweats. As long as you’re human, you will sweat. The interesting thing about sweat is that it’s generally odorless. It is only when bacteria on the skin start to break down the sweat and mix with it that it starts to produce an offensive body odor. A natural reaction would be to reach for the nearest anti-perspirant to stop all the sweating but before you reach that arm out any further, stop and think, is it normal to stop sweating? The answer is no. Sweating is our body’s way of cooling down and emitting toxins from our body so using an anti-perspirant that contains aluminum chloride which plugs the pores and stops your underarms from sweating is neither healthy nor natural. Not only does it go against how your body normally functions, but it can also increase the risk of breast cancer because of the skin absorption of aluminum chloride. Alarming, isn’t it? After all, 60% of what you put ON the skin goes INTO the skin.

With Human Nature’s All Natural Deodorant though, you don’t need to worry. Au naturel is always the best way to go and with their tagline “Only the Good”, you can be assured that their deodorant does not contain any harmful chemicals. What it does contain in its new and improved formula besides its new, mild, fresh-powdery scent and sunflower oil to keep your underarms from darkening, is a double dosage of a powerful natural anti-bacterial ingredient called chitosan to help combat body odor and keep you smelling fresh all day. It is 100% naturally derived from the shells of sea crustaceans and it’s an anti-bacterial active that is biocompatible, non-toxic and biodegradable. Chitosan has also been clinically proven to promote wound healing while also being anti-itching, anti-microbial and an excellent skin moisturizer. What’s not to love about this product?

There you have it girls. Remember, Human Nature’s All Natural deodorant is not an anti-perspirant but it will deodorize and will not give you cancer. So think about it, is it worth the risk?
