WHAT TO EXPECT WHEN


SWITCHING TO NATURAL DEODORANT

THE STAGES
OF DETOX

Antiperspirant contains aluminum which blocks sweat glands preventing you from sweating. This also traps toxins in your body. With natural deodorant your underarms are free to breathe

A 2 to 4 week transition period can be expected when transitioning from antiperspirant to natural deodorant. Studies show that antiperspirant users experience a transient increase in odorous bacteria in the underarm area when they stop using antiperspirant. This is also referred to as detoxing armpits.

STAGES OF DETOX

WEEK 1: Everything will seem normal, begin to use the takesumi detox® 2 step system.

WEEK 2: Studies show when you stop using antiperspirant, your body will temporarily produce more odor-causing bacteria. Use the underarm bar and charcoal deodorant to manage the odor during this period

WEEK 3: Moisture and odor levels start to normalize but some odor may remain. Stick with the system.

WEEK 4: Your body should begin to adjust to natural deodorant – continue using the takesumi detox® system daily for maximum odor protection.

NOTE: Each stage of the detoxing armpits process may vary depending on your body chemistry.
