High Exposure Risk — Why This Product Category Matters

Personal care products are applied directly to skin — the body's largest organ — and many ingredients are absorbed into the bloodstream. The average American uses 9-15 personal care products daily, with women using more. Phthalates, parabens, synthetic fragrances, and PFAS are commonly found in conventional personal care products.

Why We Rated It This Way

Native is one of the most popular aluminum-free deodorants in the US. The unscented version is the safest choice — scented versions may contain synthetic fragrance with undisclosed phthalates. Choose unscented for maximum chemical safety.
