Safe, Natural Deodorant for 10 Year Old Boy
If your 10 year old boy has recently developed a musty stink otherwise known as BO, your search for a safe, natural deodorant should begin. The answer to this perfectly normal rite of passage is Prep U. Our products are natural, safe, and effective.
Deodorant vs. Antiperspirant
Deodorant and antiperspirant are distinct products. Antiperspirants prevent sweating through the use of aluminum salts while deodorants overcome the odor caused by sweat and bacteria without stopping the body from sweating. Both may contain hazardous ingredients, but antiperspirants, because of the presence of aluminum salts, should be avoided at all costs.
Additional ingredients that ought to be avoided include parabens, triclosan, artificial dyes, and synthetic fragrances.
