Neutrant Women — Original Essence Cream Deodorant, 2.87 fl oz

2.87 fl oz of mineral cream deodorant. About 2.5 months of daily use.

Neutrant Women neutralizes the bacteria that turn perspiration into odor. It does not plug your sweat ducts the way an antiperspirant does.

Dries in about 15 seconds

Apply a thin layer — a pea-sized amount per underarm is enough. It absorbs in roughly 15 seconds, so you can get dressed right away. More product doesn't work better; it only takes longer to dry and is what leaves a white mark on a black dress.

About the yellow stain on white blouses

That set-in yellow underarm stain comes from aluminium chlorohydrate bonding with the proteins in sweat, and dryer heat locking it into the fibre. Neutrant contains no aluminium chlorohydrate, so it cannot start that reaction.

Results vary with fabric, laundry habits, and what was used on the garment before.

What's not in it

• No aluminium chlorohydrate — the compound antiperspirants use to block sweat ducts
• No parabens
• No alcohol
• No propylene glycol
• No baking soda, so no burning or rash on sensitive skin
• Vegan and cruelty free

Straight talk about aluminum

Potassium alum is a mineral salt, and yes — it contains aluminum. We say so, because plenty of brands claim "aluminum-free" on the same ingredient and that isn't true.

What matters is the form. Aluminium chlorohydrate is a small, absorbable molecule that plugs pores to stop sweat. Potassium alum is a large mineral crystal that stays on the skin's surface and stops odor bacteria. Different molecule, different job.

How to use

Apply a thin layer to clean, dry skin with a circular motion. Give your skin a week to adjust if you're coming off an antiperspirant. Avoid applying right after shaving.

Do not apply to broken skin. Discontinue use if irritation occurs. Store away from heat and light. External use only.
