In recent years, more and more people are looking for a paraben-free shampoo as part of a healthier hair care routine. Consumers are becoming more aware of the effects of certain ingredients on hair and scalp, which has led to the rise of products free of harsh chemicals.
Propylene glycol (1,2-propanediol) is an ingredient widely used in the cosmetics and personal care industry. It is used as a humectant, solvent, and antimicrobial agent, making it a versatile component in formulas such as creams, gels, shampoos, serums, and deodorants.
Underarm skin is among the most sensitive on the body. Factors such as hair removal, sweat, clothing friction, or even the use of harsh deodorants with alcohol, baking soda, or synthetic fragrances can cause redness, dryness, and discomfort. In these cases, petroleum jelly for irritated underarms becomes a practical and effective solution.
When puberty arrives, it's normal for girls to start needing deodorant. However, not all products are suitable for their skin, which is more sensitive and still developing. That's why more and more families are looking for a natural deodorant for girls, free of harsh ingredients and with safe formulas.
In Mesoamerica, copal was considered a sacred symbol. Its smoke was part of purification ceremonies and rituals, where it was offered to the gods as a bridge between the earthly and spiritual worlds. Inspired by this ancient tradition, at Maxalli we created Copalli deodorant, a fragrance that connects the ancient with the contemporary.
