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 light swipe to refresh your protection. After the detox period, the deodorant should last 8 hours without need to reapply.
How long it lasts
A cube typically lasts 6-8 months with proper use.
Warnings
If you shave, wax or epilate, or for sensitive skin: As with any deodorant, we do not recommend applying directly after shaving or hair removal, and we recommend using an extra layer of cream or moisturizer (a small bit of shea butter works great) first if the skin is particularly sensitive and prone to irritation. Apply the moisturizer or oil or butter first then apply the deodorant.
High heat: Keep your deodorant out of direct heat or sun (for example your car in the summer) because your deodorant could melt at very high temperatures.
Storage and Care
Store in airtight container: For the unpackaged deodorants, keep it in an airtight container to prevent it from getting dry. This is especially a factor in dry climates.
What to do if it dries out: It may evaporate over time and the stick will become drier, and glide less. This doesn't mean it's no longer working - it still will work and be effective. You can re-hydrate it by spritzing with water or using a wet finger to get the “slippery” feeling again.
How to use it
This was my first time using this product, and I will definitely be repurchasing. Even after spending several hours outdoors in the heat, my underarms remained fresh. I’ve tried numerous non-toxic deodorants in the past, but they often fell short by the end of the day. I’m genuinely impressed by the effectiveness of this one
I love this product- I love the healthy protection it provides, love the scent and love that it’s just a refill and I don’t have to keep buying the plastic container!
Wonderful
I have tried so many aluminum free deodorants and this is absolutely the very best!! I have super sensitive underarms that are easily irritated. I have had zero irritation with this and it really works! I will definitely continue to purchase this deodorant. I love everything that I have tried from this company so far!!
I've been using the Desert Rose deodorant from NO TOX LIFE for many years. I appreciate the natural ingredients to care for my body in the long run - and the easy refills to cut down on plastic. Day-to-day, I always feel refreshed and smelling good. If things are hectic, I give myself an extra ZHUZH of the desert rose. I can't remember the last time I thought I smelled badly, other than perhaps a few heavy workouts. Thanks for this wonderful product!
I've been using this deodorant for about 3 years. It is effective for me, doesn't stain my clothes and doesn't irritate skin.
I am a sweaty girl. I workout and sweat, I wake up and sweat just moving around my house (due to some medications). I share this to say, I don't know how, I don't know why but this no-tox deodorant is the best thing I have ever used for having zero scent. I am undetectable. I am able to do harder workouts (orange theory, lagree) and still have no scent present. Works so good I gave my backup (new) deodorant to my cousin in law because I couldn't believe something so safe was also so effective. She reports back it works for her too! In my crunchy-low tox era and this is a staple for me from now on.
Have switched deodorant once or twice - will always come back to this, and will only stick to the SolidSilk moving forward. The only truly effective deodorant for me!
After years of searching for a deodorant that worked and contained ingredients that I felt comfortable with, No Tox Life is my forever choice. It works better than anything I tried!
I found the desert rose and citrus deodorant at a farmers market in San Francisco in 2018. I have never bought a different type since. This stuff WORKS and it smells amazing. I’m so glad I found this and plan to use it for the rest of my life <3
