Description

Sometimes you need a little acid to shift your perspective. Welcome to your pH reboot! Our exterior bod, i.e. our skin and mucous membranes, run a tad acidic. The use of alkaline products like soaps, along with other internal imbalances, can throw off our pH. Our Acid/Base gently adjusts pH for a healthier epidermal ecosystem.
2 fl oz Ritual For scalp, skin, armpits, or yoni: use a few pumps to cover the ecosystem that needs adjusting. Apply at least twice a day, after cleansing, for optimal results. Won’t mess with your other hair styling products. Shelf Life Lasts 6 months. Store in a cool and dry place. Our products are organic and freshly made-to-order skin food. We do not use toxins that make things last forever. Multi-Use Use on scalp and hair for rejuvenating!

Ingredients

Aloe hydrosol (Aloe barbadensis miller), lavender hydrosol (Lavandula spp.)*, witch hazel extract (Hamamelis virginiana)*, Lactobacillus and Cocos Nucifera (Coconut) Fruit Extract, xanthan gum (Xanthomonas campestris), citric acid

*Organic
^Ethically & Safely Wildcrafted

Just the best.
Review by Ryder I. on 23 Apr 2024 review stating Just the best.
Can't live without it. Excellent on an itchy scalp, on sensitive skin after shaving, and, of course, slapped on my face twice daily. Love, love, love. Notice it when it's gone, which I try to never let happen.

Perfect neutralizer. It's the base I put on before deodorant.

Fresh Face, Fresh Pits
Review by Becki T. on 30 Jul 2023 review stating Fresh Face, Fresh Pits
I love this potion for both my face and my armpits. It has worked wonders in gently encouraging my early-pregnancy facial skin to find its balance, by cleansing, hydrating and calming. I like to massage this one on when I feel like my skin needs a lil extra TLC as it discovers its new normal.

Additionally - we all know the shame in reapplying deodorant over an already stinky pit. It just doesn't work, and it feels almost more embarrassing than just letting your stench ride. But that's not my problem anymore. In the extra-sweaty heat of summer, when more gentle and natural deodorants struggle to stay put, a dropper rubbed into each pit helps neutralize the stank-inducing bacteria before I slather on another layer of deo. No shame in this game, just fresh pits 💪

Calms my skin and scalp
Review by Rebecca B. on 15 Dec 2022 review stating Calms my skin and scalp
I'm just putting this everywhere to see where I can improve things. So far I'm seeing some good results. The label sort of melted off while in my medicine cabinet, but the product is fine.

Love it
Review by Ryder I. on 4 Nov 2022 review stating Love it
I love the Acid Base. I was hesitant to try it (as I am all new products), because I have incredibly sensitive, reactive skin. But, this has blown me away.

I don't know quite what it's doing to my face, but in combo with the Aloe Lotion my face is way less reactive, smoother, and totally moisturized. Dare I say, it's healing and becoming more balanced?! I truly am seeing major calming results and it's only been a few weeks.

I've also used it on my scalp and on my bikini line - both have worked well!

The smell is lovely. Smells like the best, cleanest, freshest lavender. It's a treat to use. Highly recommend!

Itchy pits be gone!
Review by Lilia M. on 6 Oct 2022 review stating Itchy pits be gone!
I’ve been struggling with itchy, irritated pits for months. Based on other reviews I changed my routine from conventional antiperspirant to acid base followed by sensitive pit cream and topped off with bod powder. It’s working so well! My skin finally feels back in balance. Now I want to figure out other parts of my body this potion will benefit.

Review by Alexandra E. on 23 Jul 2022 review stating Perfect for tweens
I got this for my young witch as part of her pit kit. My husband and I both use it and are totally in love. We really like the dropper vs using the pump and we'll switch to this once ours runs out.

Smoother skin
Review by Jessica L. on 18 Mar 2022 review stating Smoother skin
I have recently become very interested in my body’s assorted microbiomes and when I discovered Acid Base for my skin I was like let me try it! I have some stubborn dry skin on my upper arms. I’ve been using this on those trouble spots after ever shower and on my face after every shower, too, and slowly I have begun noticing a difference! Like a for real difference. My skin is smoother and those little irritating dry patches are nearly gone! Super excited to keep using this and see how healed and renewed my skin can be.

Review by Kristen S. on 2 Feb 2022 review stating I am shook!
I am utterly shook by this. I have completely stopped using traditional deodorant and I smell fresh as a daisy. It is gentle and a little goes a long way. I added this one on a whim, and I see this becoming a mainstay.

I had no idea I needed this but I knew my skin was out of whack. I didn't know what to do, so I turned to my favorite skincare friends to point me in the right direction. My skin is happily on its way to balance and I'll never be without this potion.

Pair with Sensitive Pit Cream!
Review by Julia S. on 1 Jan 2021 review stating Pair with Sensitive Pit Cream!
I got the Acid Base because I've always had issues with underarm rashes. My underarm health definitely improved when I started using FATM's Sensitive Pit Cream, and the Acid Base is now an added bonus to that routine. I put on the Acid Base first, then let it dry and then use the Sensitive Pit Cream. To be honest, I'm still not entirely sure how Acid Base works, but I know that it helps so I dig it!

A must but in addition to the deodorant and body powder. I use the acid base on my armpit skin first, then apply sensitive put cream, followed by artemis at dawn to seal it all in. I apply every day to my pits only. I haven't tried my scalp yet but I'm sure it works wonders.

Review by Juniper B. on 15 Dec 2020 review stating Smells lovely
Smells lovely. It didn't seem to be super helpful for my scalp/dandruff when I used it in a hair rinse, but that particular problem has thus far been semi unsolvable for me. Enjoying it for pits and haven't had any adverse reactions to it.
