Making the switch to a non-toxic deodorant is a big and exciting step in your self-care and daily routines. All good things take time, so expect a 4-week transition period when you begin using a non-toxic deodorant. Embrace your body’s unique body chemistry as the detox stages may vary from person to person. Remember: it is normal for the ingredients to work differently on everyone.
 


Week 1: Throughout the first week, you may not notice a very big change in your underarms. This area is beginning to adjust to new ingredients that are not superficially covering up your underarm’s natural functions. Toward the end of the week, you may notice your underarms working hard, producing more sweat than usual.


Week 2: Your body is now getting used to the absence of certain ingredients and chemicals that used to cover up odor and sweat. Because of this, you may experience an increase in the growth of odor-causing bacteria for a short period of time. But don’t worry it won’t last long! The green tea leaf extract in Skylar’s Refreshing deodorant is an anti-bacterial ingredient that helps to fight against odor.


Optional: Use a clay mask to help deep clean and remove any leftover residue.
- If you want to fully clear out those pores and give your underarms a fresh start, try using a simple bentonite clay mask to pull out any remaining impurities. 


Week 3: Odor that you may have noticed from week 2 will start to decrease this week. The pores in your armpits are getting cleared out and re-balanced, thanks sage leaf extract!


 Week 4: This week you will notice your body beginning to fully adjust to your new deodorant. Your underarms are getting used to these new beneficial, effective and non-toxic ingredients so that you can feel refreshed throughout your day. 


If you have any questions or feedback for our team regarding the detox and the #SkylarCleanChallenge, please let us know. We'd love to get your honest feedback!

In a word, YES. 

Ever wondered why a scent smells different on you than it does on your friend? The answer is in the chemistry. Don't worry, this isn't the chemistry you took in high school, this has to do with body chemistry.

When purchasing a perfume because it smells amazing on your mother-in-law, you should first consider body chemistry, the final ingredient in any fragrance. 

There are many things that play into why a scent doesn't smell the same on everyone – race, skin type, medications, pregnancy, and yes, diet. The food you eat can have a huge impact on your body scent, which of course is what is interacting with your perfume. A person who eats a balanced diet – composed of meat, veggies, fruits, nuts, and dairy in recommended portions – smells differently from a person with a rigid diet of just one or two of the main food groups. Vegans and vegetarians smell different from people who consume meat or fish. People who frequently eat spicy food might create a spicy undertone in fragrances they wear. 

This is why it is so important to try before you buy a fragrance. Sampling is the best way to get a feel of how the scent will work on you, because it may smell completely different on your best friend (sister, mother…) who was wearing it when you fell in love with it. Check out our Discovery Set and try five of our crisp, clean, nature-inspired scents before deciding on a full-size fragrance. Our scents are made for layering so you can explore new combinations to find your signature scent.

Plus, you'll receive a $25 credit towards a future full size fragrance purchase on your first Discovery Set purchase.

At Skylar, we believe in empowering our customers through education and knowledge about the clean beauty industry. There are so many brands like us are meeting the demand for safe products that actually work. 

After taking a closer look at the Federal Fair Packaging and Labeling Act of 1973, we’ve learned that there are a lot of ingredients that brands have unfortunately chosen to hide under the word “fragrance” that can be harmful to the consumer. A study by the Environmental Working Group (EWG) found that the average perfume contains 14 secret ingredients - and not all of them are safe. It’s understandable that consumers would expect more from companies who use “fragrance”, and have since started to ask for natural, organic, and non-toxic solutions for their favorite personal care products, including perfume. 

Knowledge is power, and at Skylar, we believe that education for ourselves and our customers is crucial. Recent research shows that “natural” doesn’t always mean safer. Though an ingredient, mineral, or chemical can be 100% natural- these can also be the biggest culprits of allergies, irritations and negative reactions that don’t mix well with our bodies.

You might be wondering, what does “natural” really mean? In the personal care and beauty world, “natural” is a word with many different meanings. Contrary to popular belief, when it comes to ingredients in personal care products, severe reactions can occur from the use of natural, raw substances. We have heard it said before that not all “chemicals” are bad. This concept applies to certain synthetics, we refer to them as safe synthetics. In order to provide clean formulas, Skylar uses safe synthetics. A safe synthetic can be described as an ingredient that is altered or created in a lab to stabilize, enhance, or preserve. 

We love to pull inspiration from nature for our favorite scents. But we only include the safest forms of these ingredients to keep our products safe for you and those around you. 

The Truth About Synthetics

We all want to smell better, longer. But how do we do it? The secret is in the application. 

Applying fragrance to your body's pulse points will help the scent rise throughout the day. Your pulse points include your chest (your heart is your largest pulse point!), your arms, your neck, and if you want to really make it last, behind your knees.

The best time to apply perfume is after the shower once your skin is moisturized. To get the most out of your favorite Skylar scent, we recommend using an unscented or complementary lotion for moisturizing. The warmth of the shower will open your pores and allow the scent to really anchor onto your moisturized skin. 

After spritzing, don't forget to tap and not rub. By rubbing you will dissolve the top notes faster, making your scent disappear sooner than desired. For an all-day scent, bring a Skylar rollerball with you. Tuck one in your purse, the car, anywhere!
