Sensitive cavities can be, well, a melodramatic.
An incorrect movement – a hard deodorant, excessive shaving product or a fragrance that is more chemical than charm – and suddenly, your armpits are organizing a complete protest.
But why some pits are more idiosyncratic than others? And how do you find a natural deodorant that keeps peace without turning your skin into a battlefield? Questions in all these answers below 😉
Why are armpits so sensitive?
Let’s get nerdy for a second. Your armpits host you to sweat glands, hair follicles and some of the most sensitive skin in your body. It is also the headquarters of your germ – a bustling bacteria community that maintains Odour germs while protecting your skin.
When everything is balanced, your pitches are happy little vegemites. But throw this balance? Chaos follows.
While some armpits are relaxed and miserable, others act like divas, flaring on the smallest trigger. It is a blend of biology, environment and, honestly, a little bad luck.
Thin skin, packaged nerve endings, constant humidity and friction make your armpits a high maintenance zone. Add hard products or synthetic aromas to the mixture and look at Central Central.
But everyone’s skin reacts differently. The pits of some people are cold no matter what, while others hear the alarm in the first sign of the problem.
Then there is the pH problem. Your skin thrives in a slightly acidic pH of about 5.5, but many deodorants, especially those with sodium bicarbonate as bicarb soda (which is particularly alkaline with about 9), upset this balance. The result? Redness, itching and these annoying blows.
Woohoo’s sensitive skin solutions
At Woohoo, we know the pits better than most (we have obsessed for 14 years, after all). That is why we designed deodorants to cover every type of residues, including super-sensitive.
For those who fight with bicarb soda, us formulas They are changing in the game. Packed with magnesium salts, they are designed to be soft but effective so you can stay fresh all day without the fiery results.
Magnesium It is a natural mineral that functions as a powerful but mild alternative to Bicarb soda. Unlike Bicarb soda, magnesium salts are smoother and less soluble in water. This allows magnesium to react slowly with your sweat.
Smooth application and slower reaction allow magnesium to control bacteria without sudden shift to your skin pH. This significantly reduces the chance of irritation and may also mean that your deodorant lasts longer.
