It may sound extreme, but blocking sweat with aluminum every day could be affecting more than just your body odor. Recent research suggests that aluminum—an active ingredient in most antiperspirants—acts as a metalloestrogen, meaning it mimics the effect of estrogens in the male body. The result? A potential hormonal imbalance that could affect your virility.
In recent years, aluminum-free deodorants have gained momentum in Mexico. More and more people are looking for more natural and safer options for their personal care, especially when it comes to something as routine as deodorant. But do you really know what an aluminum-free deodorant is and why so many people are making the switch?
If you've ever bought a natural deodorant and thought "what is that smell?" when you opened it, you're not alone. Many people are surprised to find that some natural deodorants have a strange, rancid, or simply unpleasant smell. But why does this happen? And is it inevitable? Spoiler: not all natural deodorants smell bad, and at Maxalli, we make sure of it.
Adolescence comes with many changes, including increased sweating and body odor. This is completely normal but can be uncomfortable and affect confidence. The good news? You don't need to resort to harsh products full of alcohol, aluminum, or artificial fragrances. A well-formulated natural deodorant can be just as effective, without the side effects.
Maxalli Romero Encino Deodorant is born from a very specific place: the dry, aromatic forests of the Sierra Madre Oriental, particularly the slopes of Chipinque. There, among oak trees, wild rosemary, and wood warmed by the sun, the inspiration for this herbal, earthy, and deeply Mexican blend emerges.
