Natural Deodorant
We make Natural Deodorant and Perfumes for ourselves and customers. We have been doing so for 4 years. We started making Natural Integrity Deodorant because nothing ever worked for me personally and I become passionate about natural products our environment and using essential oils hence the start-up of natural Integrity. I would always smell and sweat heavily. It was not until I used the natural version in our first early stage development of products the odour stopped and the excessive sweating (incredible). Sweat does not actually smell it is what happens after it comes out that cause the unpleasant odour. The Essential oils stop the bacteria because certain oils are Anti-microbial and Antiseptic. As for the perspiration while I have been using Natural deodorant my perspiration has decreased. I make the hypothesis this has happened because anit-perspirants were not allowing my body to regulate the temperature because body sweats main function is to control body temperature. Therefore, the anti-perspirants were blocking my sweat gland and causing me to overheat bringing me more sweat. I would definitely try other natural deodorant brands to read on to find out about the fine print.
Natural Perfumes
We make Natural perfumes with natural ingredients and essential oils for ourselves and our customers. We highly recommend Natural perfumes! As manufacturer’s we feel there is a ethical responsibility of what is going in end user products. I was explaining to a very close friend yesterday there is more behind just producing products. I explained how I am always searching for new natural fragrances and scents we can add to the perfumes and how I came across A Material Safety Data Sheet for a particular Fragrance (which we found out was synthetic) I was researching and in a Hazard Statements it said Combustible liquid, Harmful if swallowed Causes serious eye irritation “Suspected of damaging fertility or the unborn child” Causes skin irritation May cause an allergic skin reaction. This is the fine print not everyone sees. Therefore, natural perfumes and fragrances get my vote.
To finish this post up lets look at the skin and absorption from Wikipedia
Skin absorption is a route by which substances can enter the body through the skin. Along with inhalation, ingestion and injection, dermal absorption is a route of exposure for toxic substances and route of administration for medication. Absorption of substances through the skin depends on a number of factors, the most important of which are concentration, duration of contact, solubility of medication, and physical condition of the skin and part of the body exposed.
Skin (percutaneous, dermal) absorption is the transport of chemicals from the outer surface of the skin both into the skin and into circulation. Skin absorption relates to the degree of exposure to and possible effect of a substance which may enter the body through the skin. Human skin comes into contact with many agents intentionally and unintentionally. Skin absorption can occur from occupational, environmental, or consumer skin exposure to chemicals, cosmetics, or pharmaceutical products. Some chemicals can be absorbed in enough quantity to cause detrimental systemic effects.
Therefore, its important for you to be careful what your putting on your skin.
Lighten up though the chances of anything serious happening to you through the above are very low. Just take care and be careful. I use products that are not natural and organic and they do not harm me, because I use them sparingly. i just prefer natural and organic.
Take Care all and have a Lovely Christmas.
