Intuitive & Easy to Use Packaging

Combat Body Odor: Bacteria, not sweat, cause odor. Deodorants have limitations, so we developed Oxters.
Prepare your underarms for deodorant and whatever comes next.
The underarm
A high-performing, misunderstood part of your body. Warm and moist, it houses sweat glands, hair follicles, and lymph nodes, creating an environment for bacteria growth. Body odor arises from sweat interacting with skin bacteria. Factors like warmth, moisture, and apocrine sweat glands contribute to armpit odor.
Armpit Sweat
Odorless from eccrine glands. When mixed with bacteria, it produces an unpleasant smell. Composed of water, electrolytes, proteins, lipids, and nutrients for bacteria.
Oder Causing Bacteria
Skin hosts a diverse microbiota. When sweat mixes, bacteria break down proteins and lipids, producing volatile organic compounds (VOCs) with a distinct odor.
Apocrine Sweat
Armpits house lipid-rich sweat from apocrine glands. It contains proteins and lipids as nutrients for bacteria, causing odor production.
Hormones & Diet
Puberty affects apocrine glands, increasing sweat and altering odor. Food choices matter too. Spicy, garlic, onions, and some meds can release compounds detectable in sweat.
Note from the Founders
At Oxters, we understand the fast-paced lifestyle and the never-ending battle against sweat and body odor. Deodorants have limitations, which is why we created Oxters.
