What Is The Difference Between The Deodorant And The Deodorant Gel?

The Deodorant and The Deodorant Gel both contain Mandelic Acid as the active ingredient for odor protection. The Deodorant is a soft solid stick ideal for normal-to-heavy odor protection. The Deodorant Gel is a clear, quick-dry and no residue liquid gel ideal for light-to-normal odor protection.

Answer

Why Is pH Level Mentioned On The Package?

During the formulation process we optimize the pH of the formula. We believe it directly impacts the safety and efficacy of the formula. The pH objective will vary based on product purpose. On the secondary packaging (carton) we provide a pH range. The reason a pH range is indicated is that pH may vary during the manufacturing process and/or slightly change over time. Formula that does not contain enough water, will not have a pH listed.

Answer

Is This Product Certified Eczema-Safe?

No. This product does not hold The Seal of Approval by the National Eczema Association.

Answer

Can I Use The Product If I Am Pregnant?

We formulate without ingredients on the EU's prohibited substances list (Regulation No.1223/2009, Annex II). This formula is Dermatologist-Tested and Hypoallergenic. If you have any specific concerns, we recommend consulting your doctor prior to use.

Answer

    Best Deo

    I’ve tried every stick and paste under the sun, but they either gave me a rash or just... didn't work. Enter The Deodorant with Mandelic Acid. Honestly, the science makes so much sense—instead of just covering up the smell, the acid actually keeps the odor-causing bacteria from showing up in the first place.

    Why I’m obsessed:

    • No baking soda (aka no itchy red rashes!)

    • It’s a clear gel, so no white marks on my black tees.

    • It actually makes my skin smoother? (The AHA is basically a mini-facial for your pits).

    If you’ve been burned by natural deodorants before, this is the one to try. 10/10.

    This is the best!

    This is just the best deodorant out there. I tried the gel when this was discontinued and it made me stink! So glad that this is back and it's the best! Promise!

    My favorite new deodorant

    I used to love Mando, but I always broke out in a rash with the few scents I liked. Their unscented version worked great, but smelled sour. So I found this as a hopeful mandelic acid scented replacement, and it’s been working great for me! I love the smell, and best of all no reaction.

    This is my first time using a mandelic acid deodorant and I am so happy with the results. Necessaire is my favorite brand!
