Ditch the stink, embrace the peace! This natural deodorant keeps you smelling fresh while restoring the skin’s natural balance. Infused with odor-fighting botanicals and soothing plant extracts, Corum Peaceful Pits Deodorant neutralizes odor for long-lasting freshness. This Malassezia-safe deodorant won’t disrupt your skin’s microbiome or feed the yeast growth that can irritate sensitive areas!
NITA’S NOTE: It took a few weeks for my pits to adjust to using a natural deodorant, but I’m so glad I switched from using antiperspirant. My skin is calmer and healthier.
Plant-powered Protection: Our botanical blend featuring New Zealand Totarol and Zinc neutralizes odor naturally, keeping you feeling fresh all day long. 100% derived from natural, vegan sources
Sensitive Skin Friendly: NO aluminum, baking soda, alcohol, artificial colors, essential oils, or fragrance, and nothing that will trigger Malassezia
Long-lasting Confidence: Strong against odors but gentle on skin
Waterless: NO microbiome-disrupting preservatives required
Damp areas on our bodies that do not get much airflow are sensitive to changes in our skin microbiome. Many products that control odor can disrupt that microbiome.
If you’ve ever had an armpit rash or itchy bumps on other folds in your skin, you know how hard it is to find a deodorant that doesn’t make the condition worse. That’s why we created a Malassezia-safe deodorant that avoids microbiome-disrupting ingredients such as oils with fatty acids, preservatives, baking soda, alcohol, or fragrances. Instead, we use gentle, hard-working ingredients to keep you smelling fresh by neutralizing odor.
When switching from an antiperspirant with aluminum to a natural deodorant, there are some things to keep in mind. Using aluminum antiperspirants can cause toxins and bacteria to build up in and under the skin due to the clogging nature of those products. Antiperspirants also alter the armpit microbiome by increasing odor-causing bacteria in the armpits.(1)
So, when you allow the clogged pores to breathe, your pits begin to unload all the gunk they’ve been holding onto, and sometimes that’s stinky business. You might have smellier pits than ever for a short time until your microbiome returns to normal. The length of time this process takes will vary because each person’s microbiome is different. You may need to apply a bit more often when you first switch to a natural deodorant.
