Outback Essence Deodorant

Clean and Pure Outback Essence Deodorant is a fresh, earthy natural deodorant in a 60 g push-up stick, housed in a biodegradable paper and cardboard tube. Its scent opens with bright lemon myrtle and eucalyptus leaf over warm cedarwood and vanilla essential oils. Sodium bicarbonate, tapioca starch and kaolin sit in a smooth coconut oil, shea butter and candelilla wax base. Smooth a thin layer under each arm after a shower; it is a deodorant rather than an antiperspirant, so it works on odour, not perspiration.

Warnings

For external use only.

Sodium bicarbonate is the odour control agent in this stick and it irritates some underarm skin. Apply a small amount to one arm and leave it a day before using it regularly.

Do not apply to broken, irritated or freshly shaved skin.

Essential oils can sensitise the skin. Stop use if redness, itching or soreness develops.

Avoid contact with the eyes.

Storage

Keep the lid on and stand the tube upright in a cool, dry place, out of direct sun. The paper and cardboard tube is not built to get wet, so keep it out of the shower.
