I'm trying to catch up on my water intake for today. I tend to slack on the days I work from work. Maybe I just need a bigger water bottle. But then again, I have been to buying water bottles lately in all different colors for no real reason at all. Not the Stanley Cups though, I don't like anything that's harder to clean. But back to the deodorant.
Megababe claims:
Looking for your dream Deo? Meet The Cream Deo!
Made with 5% AHAs, The Cream Deo is your 100% natural defense against odor, ingrowns and uneven skin tone.
Mandelic and lactic acids do double duty, creating an acidic pH level that helps block odor-causing bacteria while also penetrating clogged pores to gently prevent and treat ingrowns.
Niacinamide, squalane and vitamin E join to help improve skin tone and encourage smoother, softer skin with daily use.
The light scent combines mint and tea tree for long-lasting freshness that won’t overpower your pits (or nostrils). And best of all, there’s an applicator tip for direct application - no messy fingers!
Like all Megababe products, The Cream Deo is vegan, cruelty-free and made without aluminum, parabens, phthalates or sulfates.
Dermatologist approved, clinically tested & safe for sensitive skin!*
Tested on Megababes, never on animals!
*In a test panel with 54 participants after 3 weeks of use.
Made in USA
I ordered this off Nordstrom. I don't remember why...I think it was a late night purchase. I really should not shop late at night.
I think I bought it because I thought it was more natural. And I do always like to try natural deoderants- even though they usually don't work out for me.
This one has very unique packaging. It's a tube- like a tube of lotion, with a squeeze top you can use to apply the deodorant. Very unique packaging. And seems to contain a lot more than drugstore deodorants because the tube is pretty full. There is a full 3 ounces in it.
The first thing I noticed was the scent. I really dislike the scent. It's tea tree. Smells very medical. Kinda reminiscent of the The Body Shop tea tree skincare line. I think I usually like the tea tree scent but not in something I am using everyday and not in this.
I could probably be more accepting of the scent if it worked. It does not work. It doesn't work at all. I use it on days I don't leave the house...but will still play my dancing games/workout and it's not good.
It is supposed to have skincare in it, like niacinamide, lactic acid, and mandelic acid. That wasn't a selling point for me because I don't care what my armpits look like. I think they do look a little better though when I went to go look. Just smoother and a bit more even in color.
I have noticed this does sting every one in awhile.
I do like the ingredients though...just wished they were an actual deodorant instead of mostly skincare.
