Looking for Natural Deodorant in Singapore? Here’s Where to Go!

Skip the antiperspirant and stay fresh with a natural deodorant in Singapore instead!

Living in the tropics is an absolute perk, but the sunny days can also make you perspire profusely. But that doesn’t mean you have to worry about body odour because there are plenty of options for non-toxic and natural deodorants in Singapore. And if you’re looking to make the switch from chemical-filled antiperspirants to non-toxic, all-natural options, then we’ve got all the reasons why you should do that ASAP (plus suggestions for great natural deodorant brands)!

What antiperspirants actually do to your body

Conventional antiperspirants work by attempting to plug your sweat glands; a bad idea, since sweating is a healthy, natural way for your body to detox. Conventional deodorants – which typically contain harmful ingredients like aluminium, parabens, chemical-laden fragrances, and triclosan – work by masking body odour and killing the bacteria present on your skin. If you’re not sure, a good rule of thumb is to always run your personal care products and their ingredients through EWG’s Skin Deep Cosmetic’s Database to determine their safety.

Why natural deodorant is a better option

The clean beauty movement has fortunately provided us with a variety of natural and organic options. But first, a hint: Even before you make the switch to a natural deodorant, cleaning up your diet and lifestyle can also contribute to healthier (and better smelling) perspiration. Some even suggest that the need for deodorant wanes the more you increase your water, vegetable and fruit intake while minimising processed foods at the same time.

2. All Good

All Good is organic, aluminium-free, and contains no parabens or phthalates. It’s also vegan and cruelty-free but the best part about this natural deodorant in Singapore?

3. Biokind Fem-Tox

When making the switch to organic or natural deodorants, you may experience a mild detox reaction if you’ve been using conventional products. Increased odour initially, while your body is readjusting, might just mean you could benefit from an armpit detox. BioKind’s Fem-Tox is designed to be used overnight under your arms and near sensitive breast tissue to improve circulation and lymphatic drainage. Not meant to be used indefinitely, this is a great option as you make the transition to natural products.

Price: US$64
Available at: BioPure

Lush is the king of all things natural, and they carry three kinds of natural deodorant in Singapore. Powder-based The Greeench is filled with natural ingredients like thyme, rosemary, tea tree and sage to keep odours at bay.

These come in bar form and use sodium bicarbonate, witch hazel and antibacterial fresh makers like patchouli, juniper berry, tea tree and lemon oil to limit bacterial growth and keep you smelling fresh.
