Why You Should Always Use an Organic Deodorant but Not an Antiperspirant

Updated: Oct 8, 2023

With Hong Kong’s hot and humid climate, a deodorant or an antiperspirant is understandably a must-have. But first thing first, there is a conceptual difference between a deodorant and an antiperspirant. A deodorant won't stop you from sweating while an antiperspirant will. And sweating is good! This natural bodily function regulates our body temperature and helps us detox.


Fun fact: sweat itself doesn’t smell. It is the bacteria on our skin that generate chemical compounds with sweat, which causes odour, and this is when an organic deodorant does its magic.


WHY ORGANIC DEODORANT IS A HEALTHY ALTERNATIVE

Antiperspirants, because of the presence of controversial aluminium salts, stop the perspiration by clogging your sweat glands. However, a good organic deodorant acts by neutralising odour associated with perspiration, without the presence of aluminium salts or other irritating chemicals. This is why an organic underarm deodorant is a healthy alternative.


LE MOLY, THE NATURAL CREAM DEODORANT SPECIALIST

At Maison Evelyn, we have been looking for an artisanal brand that makes natural deodorant to effectively get rid of body odour ... and we’ve found one! Le Moly specialise in handcrafting hygienic and cosmetic products. The founder, Jennifer Bayemi, has always been fascinated by the transformation of scents, colours, and textures, so she dedicated her time to creating natural soaps and cream deodorants that are gentle to our delicate skin.


ORGANIC COCONUT DEODORANT CREAM

Her passion has led her to the opening of Le Moly, where this Organic Coconut Deodorant Cream is handcrafted. As it is a cream, it is smoothly pleasing and easy to apply. Its natural ingredients guarantee a real care for all skin types, suitable for both sexes. While preventing unpleasant smells, it also nourishes and softens the armpits, so this deodorant for both men and women can be used right after waxing or shaving without any burning sensation.


GO FOR ORGANIC DEODORANT

Really, there is nothing harmful and everything beneficial. Once you stop using conventional antiperspirants, you will feel you sweat slightly more than usual. This is because pores are finally open again, but your body will regulate itself to normal. Remember, you are making the right choice for your health by using organic and natural deodorant.
