The Armpit Detox started as a viral trend on TikTok. It became popular as people began to understand the harm that traditional aluminum based deodorants can have on your health.

Detox masks are not a new thing but they have grown in popularity as a way to cleanse pores and make your skin look and feel amazing.

What is an armpit detox?

An armpit detox involves using simple ingredients mixed together to create a clay that is rubbed onto your armpit area to help transition from traditional deodorants that contain aluminum to aluminum-free (natural) deodorants.

Is it good to detox armpits?

While there is no medical evidence that says detoxing armpits is good, it does offer a way to cleanse armpit pores as it has antibacterial properties that can help remove odor causing bacteria.

How to Make An Armpit Detox Mask

Mix a 1:1 ratio of the apple cider vinegar and Aztec Secret Indian Healing Clay in a non-metal bowl with a non-metal spoon. I used 1/4 cup of each and used a ceramic bowl with a popsicle wooden stick.

As you are mixing, you may notice it fizzing, this is totally normal.

Once mixed, apply the detox mask to your underarms and let sit for 5-10 minutes. No longer than 10 minutes.

Rinse with warm water and pat dry.

Things to Note:

  • DO NOT mix this mixture in a metal bowl or use metal spoons. There is a warning on the clay package. Use wooden spoons or plastic.
  • Watch for skin sensitivity. If you begin feeling a burning sensation or other signs of skin irritation, wash and rinse the armpit detox mask off immediately.
  • Do not use for more than 5-10 minutes as the package on the clay states.
  • You can switch the Apple Cider Vinegar for water if you’d rather.
  • As stated on the clay container, some redness is normal but if you begin to see a rash or more redness, remove immediately.
  • If you are using apple cider vinegar, that is the smell you’ll smell while using this.
  • You can apply this mask to other areas of your body including your face, neck, arms, legs, etc.
  • To remove, wash with a mild soap and warm water.
  • Use this at your own risk.
