What is the difference between The Deodorant and The Deodorant Gel?
The Deodorant and The Deodorant Gel both contain Mandelic Acid, Vitamin B3 and Vitamin B5 for clean odor control and less shaving bumps. The Deodorant is a no-residue solid stick ideal for normal-to-heavy odor control. The Deodorant Gel is a clear quick-dry serum-in-gel ideal for light-to-normal odor control.

Answer


Why is The Deodorant formulated with Mandelic Acid?
The Deodorant and The Deodorant Gel are both formulated with Mandelic Acid to provide a low pH environment that inhibits the growth of odor-causing bacteria. While Mandelic Acid's primary role is to help provide clean odor control, the gentle exfoliation also helps to minimize shaving bumps.

Answer


Why is The Deodorant formulated without Ozokerite?
Nécessaire adheres to EU ingredient standards and EU ingredient listing. All ingredients inclusive of all incidentals are captured on our ingredient labels. During our development process of The Deodorant our clinical team and vendor partners were not able to find a clean Ozokerite as base for our formula. The available sources of Ozokerite that we found had incidental traces of BHT or Paraffin. We therefore used Sunflower Wax as our base. A Sunflower Wax base is softer which means that there can be slight dome imperfections, but we welcome those imperfections in exchange for better ingredients.

Answer


Does The Deodorant contain Aluminum?
The Deodorant is Aluminum-Free, Baking Soda-Free, Ozokerite-Free, Paraben-Free, PEG-Free and Silicone-Free. The Deodorant adheres to EU formulation standard and EU ingredient listing. All ingredients inclusive of all incidentals are captured on the ingredient labeling across website and on pack. The Deodorant is dermatologist-tested, hypoallergenic and non-comedogenic.

Answer


Can I use The Deodorant after I shave?
The Deodorant is formulated with Mandelic Acid. Do not apply directly after shave. If you wish to try, we suggest a patch test.

    The most effective clean deodorant I have ever tried! Buy it now!

    This is the only natural deodorant that has worked and I’ve literally tried dozens of natural deodorant brands. I’m never, ever smelly ( even after a long stressful workday). And when they say 72-Hour Protection, they mean it! In addition to its effectiveness, the three scents Necessaire offers are all amazing (Olibanum is my absolute favorite scent with Santal as a close second). With the addition of mandelic acid, I have noticed the hyperpigmentation on my armpits is lightening up which is welcomed! There is not one thing that I don’t love about this deodorant. I will continue to purchase this deodorant for myself and my family.

    Oh by the way, this deodorant is rated EXCELLENT on the Yuka App.
