Q&A
How do I apply it?
Start with a pea size amount on your fingers. Rub it onto each clean armpit until it disappears. If wearing dark tops, either apply the deodorant after you are dressed, or wait 5 minutes after applying to get changed.
Will it leave white marks?
White marks can appear on tight or fitted clothing. Wipe the surface area with a wet cloth which should remove marking.
How long does it last?
Use within 9 months of opening the jar. As there are no preservatives in this product, it’s best kept away from moisture, water and dirty fingers.
Why am I sweating more?
It could be a few reasons:
• Most deodorants are ‘antiperspirants’ which suppress your body’s natural ability to perspire. Sweating is normal, and Simple Chemistry’s deodorant allows the body to breathe and naturally release toxins without the odour – so you can stay smelling fresh.
• For some people, perspiring can feel uncomfortable as they associate deodorant with dryness.
• Extra sweating or the feeling of wetness can pass in a few days or a week as your body gets used to the natural process again.
Why do I have a rash/itch or redness?
Some people, including myself, can experience mild discomfort. For some – it only lasts a couple of days. Sodium Bicarbonate (Bicarb Soda) can cause irritation, especially in warmer months because you perspire more.
This can cause red armpits with a rash or dry, cracked skin. To help soothe skin, you can rub apple cider vinegar mixed with water, coconut oil or calendula cream to affected areas.
DO NOT APPLY HEALTHY ARMPITS STRAIGHT AFTER SHAVING YOUR ARMPITS! We recommend you shave at night and apply the deodorant in the morning.
*In any circumstance of discomfort, discontinue use and seek medical attention
Why is my deodorant hard?
Healthy Armpits Deodorant may change its texture according to the climate. If it’s very cold – the cream can become hard. Just grab a little amount with the back of your nails, and it will warm up once it contacts your skin. It’s best kept inside a cupboard to keep warm.
Deodorant Cream
Healthy Armpit Deodorant is our featured product and best seller. It is a long-lasting deodorant made from simple household items:
Ingredients
Coconut oil
Bicarbonate of soda
Shea butter
Tapioca Starch
Sweet Orange Essential Oil
And can safely be absorbed by the skin. Unlike antiperspirants, it allows the body to breathe and naturally release toxins while keeping you fresh and smelling great.
Deodorant Stick
Healthy Armpit Deodorant also comes in a stick applicator for your convenience.
How to apply: Roll up the stick to reveal a small portion of deodorant – be careful as it’s very delicate and can crumble. It will warm up with your body heat once applied to the armpit and become softer and easier to apply. Slide it on once or twice and remember less is more.

Lip Balm
Simple Chemistry’s Lip Balm is a gentle way to moisturise and nourish your lips.
Carefully roll up the applicator to expose a small portion of lip balm. The product will warm up with your body heat once in contact with your lips and become easier to apply. If you notice a grainy texture in the lip balm, don’t worry – that’s the Shea butter. Your lips will love it, so apply liberally or as needed.
