Is your deodorant secretly bad for you? Or is the low-tox movement sending us down another beauty rabbit hole?

This week on glossy*, we're unpacking one of the most debated products in our beauty routines: deodorant. From antiperspirants and aluminium salts to crystal deodorants, fragrance sensitivities, eczema, and the rise of low-tox beauty, we're diving into the facts, the myths, and everything in between.

Hannah shares her search for a deodorant that actually works after developing sensitivities to her long-time favourite, while Jaz questions whether we're being informed consumers or falling victim to clever marketing.

As always, we're not doctors — just two beauty professionals trying to make sense of the endless beauty information overload.

Show Notes - In this episode we chat about:
Hannah's deodorant journey after developing eczema and sensitivities
The Dermal Therapy Crystal Deodorant that's currently winning her over
Deodorant vs antiperspirant: what's the actual difference?
Why sweat doesn't smell (but bacteria does)
The history of deodorant and how marketing changed our views on body odour
The controversial debate around aluminium and breast cancer
What the current research actually says
The rise of the low-tox beauty movement
Fragrance allergies and ingredient sensitivities
Why Jaz can never pronounce aluminium

Why "clean beauty" isn't as straightforward as it sounds
