You have definitely heard of solid deodorant.

Have you embraced the zero-waste concept and are you looking for ways to reduce your waste and be kinder to the planet? After discovering the bioplastic toothbrush with interchangeable heads from the French brand Caliquo, now's the time to discover solid deodorant, which is healthier and more environmentally friendly, but just as effective.

Why use a solid deodorant?

Solid deodorant is 100% natural, making it perfect for zero-waste goals. To achieve its solid texture, it uses a blend of butters, vegetable oils, and essential oils. It can also be enriched with kaolin clay, baking soda, or beeswax. These are natural ingredients that help control and absorb perspiration and eliminate unpleasant odors. Unlike traditional deodorant and alum stone, it has several advantages and is more effective. It leaves the skin drier and cleaner, and is even suitable for the most sensitive skin. It is also able to regulate perspiration; it doesn't block it, while effectively keeping unpleasant odors away. It nibbles away at the bacteria in perspiration before they release an unpleasant odor. It's important to know that this natural alternative is different from an antiperspirant deodorant, which prevents perspiration from being released. For antiperspirant deodorant to be effective, it uses aluminum salt, which closes the pores of the skin. The solid deodorant, without preservatives or aluminum salts, is a hygiene product that truly contributes to the protection of our planet, as its cardboard packaging is 100% recyclable or comes in a reusable glass jar. In addition to being economical and practical, it is also environmentally friendly and sustainable; one solid deodorant is equivalent to two sticks of conventional deodorant.

How to use solid deodorant?

To use the solid deodorant , it's very simple. You just have to wet it with tap water (cold or hot). Then, pass it over your armpits. If you're just out of the shower, you can rub it right away on your armpits. Don't worry, there will be a thin layer of cream that will settle on your skin, this is completely normal. It offers a non-greasy feel. However, its use is not recommended for pregnant and breastfeeding women due to the presence of essential oils. After use, you just have to put it on a soap dish or on a saucer near your toothbrush with a bioplastic handle made by the French company Caliquo. If you want to protect your solid deodorant from dust, place it in a small jam jar or an old cream jar. However, since it is antibacterial, meaning it cannot get dirty, you won't have to worry about its preservation. For those of you who are increasingly interested in natural alternatives in cosmetics, you might want to complement your Caliquo brand toothbrush with a solid deodorant .
