Aurelia's Citrus Botanical Cream Deodorant is an aluminium-free deodorant that really works. The cream-to-powder consistency contains superfine, powdered botanicals. Antimicrobial arrowroot and pure kaolin sit invisibly on the skin ready to absorb perspiration and keep you dry throughout the day, while citrus fragrances energise your senses.Unlike Aluminium-based antiperspirants that work by using Aluminium Salts to block and alter sweat ducts, the super-fine powdered plant botanicals in Aurelia’s Citrus Botanical Cream Deodorant include anti-microbial Arrowroot and pure Kaolin, to absorb perspiration while remaining invisible throughout the day. Rich shea butter in this deodorant helps to keep underarms feeling nourished. It's also infused with a light touch of distilled citrus fragrances to help deodorise for a scent you can enjoy throughout the day.Why did Aurelia create an aluminium free deodorant? This Citrus Botanical Cream Deodorant offers a highly effective yet gentle alternative for anyone looking to avoid the ingredient. Aluminium-based antiperspirants work by using aluminium salts to block and alter sweat ducts, which is thought to interfere with our body’s natural response.Aurelia's Citrus Botanical Cream Deodorant Key Benefits:Suitable for all skin types, including sensitiveSuitable for those seeking an alternative to aluminium-based anti-perspirantsFor daily use, effective use on clean skinKeeps you dry, fresh and confident with every useSoftens skin with rich shea butterHelps to reduce ingrown hairs with antibacterial tea treeSuitable for anyone seeking vegan body careSuitable for those who love a light, fresh citrus fragrancesMade without a long list of questionable ingredients, including sulphates, parabens, mineral oils and MI to name only a fewCitrus Botanical Deodorant Key Ingredients:Eucalyptus -  Eucalyptus globulus: The cooling essential oil produced from the leaves and twigs has decongestant properties and smells wonderfully freshLavender - Lavandula angustifolia: This comforting, calming oil has been widely used since the late 16th century.

PEPPERMINT. TEA TREEIs the Aurelia Botanical Cream Deodorant cruelty free?Aurelia is a Cruelty-Free International certified company supporting the end to animal testing in cosmetics. The Leaping Bunny mark is placed on their labels and outer boxes, offering peace of mind. This stipulates that no animal testing is conducted or commissioned for finished cosmetic products or ingredients by the company, its laboratories or its suppliers after a fixed cut-off date.  This accreditation required total transparency by Aurelia Probiotic Skincare, enabling Cruelty-Free International to independently audit us throughout our supply chains, ensuring that they adhere to its animal testing policy and the Standard's strict criteria.  If you are shopping for beauty in the EU, you can be confident that your products have not been tested on animals as a total ban has been in place since 2013. The challenges arise when some brands knowingly retail their products in China where they are still tested on animals. You can ship across the border to China and be exempt to this rule but the minute they retail within the country (in a department store, pharmacy or independent shop) the government insist animal testing takes place unless the product is manufactured in China. Many brands turn a blind eye to this. Aurelia doesn’t!Is the Aurelia Botanical Cream Deodorant organic?Aurelia are 'BioOrganic', a term that encompasses the ethically sourced natural, organic and wild harvested plant and flower botanicals used where possible throughout the Aurelia Probiotic Skincare range. Claire, Aurelia’s founder, made the decision from the beginning to choose to support communities who supply us unique botanicals from around the world. Often these are wildly harvested but these communities can’t always afford to get their land certified or accredited by independent bodies due to the costs involved. Accreditation would restrict Aurelia’s sourcing abilities, the choice of ingredients they want to work with and who they buy them from. Additionally, Aurelia uses select, unique botanicals whose popularity are now growing as their benefits are being more widely discovered. These are often currently only available through our community sourcing network, and are not organically certified. To choose only organically certified ingredients would mean they would have to compromise on the variety of these rich, magical ingredients they use.  There are limitations in beauty. The term ‘organic’ refers to the growing method of the natural ingredients used, not the whole product. The term organic can only ever be applied to ingredients within products that are ‘grown’, so many natural products included such as clays, salts, minerals or even water that have many benefits can never claim to be organic.Is the Aurelia Botanical Cream Deodorant suitable for pregnancy?All products within the Aurelia brand are suitable for use during pregnancy and breastfeeding. They are proud to be a safe, natural brand that can be used at all stages of pregnancy and postpartum care.Is the Aurelia Botanical Cream Deodorant​​​​​​ suitable for vegetarians?All products within the Aurelia brand are suitable for vegetarians and many of their products are also registered with the Vegan Society. With a natural ingredients promise they are careful with the botanical ingredients they include, choosing only the every best in exquisite, BioOrganic ingredients to nourish, support and firm the skin.Is the Aurelia Botanical Cream Deodorant suitable for vegans?Yes, it is.  Aurelia use probiotics which are derived from a cruelty-free milk protein in most of the range, meaning that as a brand they are not vegan. However, they do carry a swathe of products that are vegan friendly, as they don’t contain probiotics or any other by-products.Aurelia Products Registered with the Vegan Society:Cell Repair Night Oil, Firm & Revitalise Dry Body Oil, Restorative Cream Body Cleanser,Firm & Replenish Body Serum, Botanical Cream DeodorantHow does Aurelia fragrance the products?Aurelia only ever use pure, natural essential oils or flower waters to fragrance the products. You will never find synthetic fragrances within the range, which means the range is suitable for those with sensitivity to perfumes. They use low levels of essential oils in bespoke blends to fragrance the products, allowing for a sense of luxury and mindfulness with every application.Where is the Aurelia Botanical Cream Deodorant made?All Aurelia Probiotic Skincare are made in England, United Kingdom.Is the Aurelia Botanical Cream Deodorant packaging recyclable?All of the Aurelia cartons, glass jars and bottles are recyclable. They are working towards ensuring that all lids, caps and pumps are recyclable in the future.For external use only. Keep out of reach of young children. Avoid contact with eyes.

That's great to hear! Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review. – VH
Smells lovely. Haven't used it yet as I am still using the original version. I keep a cotton wool disc in the jar otherwise it's a bit messy to apply with fingers at the same time as doing a morning facial routine! However, it's not that messy and stays a good texture in the jar even through warm weather. It is non irritating, doesn't contain nasties and has a smooth dry texture once applied and the deodorant really works - armpits stayed gently fragranced even through perspiration and a sweltering day.
