ALPHA HYDROXY ACIDS (AHA'S) FOR OPTIMAL ODOUR CONTROL

At Frank + Bare we are big believers in fruit acids, which is why you’ll find Orange, Lemon, Bilberry, Sugar Cane and Sugar Maple in our Award Winning AHA Deodorant Collection. The only deodorant on the market with these 5 awesome extracts.  These botanical extracts deliver five natural AHAs to the skin — Lactic (from Bilberry), Glycolic (from Sugar Cane), Citric (from Orange and Lemon), Malic and Tartaric (from Sugar Maple). 

Though the word “acid” may seem scary, especially when your delicate skin is involved, there’s no need for alarm. In science class you probably learned all about the pH scale, which ranges from zero (acidic) to 14 (alkaline). The middle ground is seven and our skin falls right around 5.5, making it slightly acidic in its normal state. Fruit Acids, like our skin, also fall on the acidic end of the scale, typically ranging from three to four, and are very mild in over-the-counter products. In other words, don’t let the word “acid” make you run from this game-changing group of ingredients.   Glycolic acid in particular has been scientifically proven to prevent the bacteria causing odour from growing.

Our AHA deodorant is very mild, PH balanced and kind to your skin, it can be used everyday, we consider it a micropeel for your pits, delivering optimal odour control along with the added benefit of skin smoothing and brightening. You will have the freshest, cleanest smoothest pits to be proud of.

THE PLASTIC CRISIS

Every year, 8 million metric tons of plastic enters our oceans. This equates to a garbage truck full of plastic being dumped into our oceans every minute.  Much of this comes from land, of which most is plastic bags, bottles and various other consumer products. The consequences from the mass production, consumption and discarding of plastics continues to get worse and worse, and the health of our environment -- especially the world's oceans -- is deteriorating.  

The mass production of plastic emerged in the 1950s and has continued to expand exponentially ever since, and almost all of the plastic that has ever been made, is still with us here today. The materials never completely disintegrate, but rather break down into microplastics, particles less than 5 millimeters in diameter, that continue to be distributed throughout our earth. 

There's so much plastic in the environment at this point, it's in the water we drink, much of the food we eat and even the air we all breathe.

Rethinking the way we use, reuse and discard plastic will make a seismic difference in the amount of plastic that ends up in our oceans.  

Every piece matters, and every piece makes a difference!
