Many consumers are making changes to the deodorant they use, especially when it comes to choosing a cleaner formula but Surface Deep offers a unique alternative to deodorant with individually wrapped, biodegradable pads. The Anti-Odorant Pads were developed by dermatologist Dr. Alicia Zalka, who forgot to pack deodorant on vacation and made do with a product containing glycolic acid. After finding that the ingredient was effective for offering long-lasting, protection that kept odors at bay, Zalka created single-use pads for on-the-go swiping.
The non-irritating pads rely on fruit-based glycolic acid to remove bacteria from the skin's surface, all the while helping to create a site with a lower pH so that odor-causing bacteria can't thrive.
