From Toxic Stick To Whole-Body Cream:
Have you noticed the shift? The shift in preferences towards natural and organic (or more importantly, non toxic) products? There's a reason... It's driven by the growing awareness & awakening of the harm being caused by unnatural, man-made ingredients. Somewhere along the line, man thought they could out-do what God already perfected. Isn't that just... strange?
In addition to natural toothpaste, one of the products that's gained some of the most attention is natural deodorant.
- But why is switching from big pharmaceutical-based retail corporations to smaller artisanal alternatives, so important?
- And what makes natural deodorants better than their chemical-laden junk?
Well... understanding the risks of using conventional deodorants, & the benefits of switching to natural alternatives should answer that perfectly ~ and simply.
The Hidden Dangers of Mainstream Deodorants
Mainstream deodorants and antiperspirants contain a nasty cocktail of toxic, synthetic chemicals. One of the most concerning ingredients found in many conventional deodorants is aluminum compounds, which are used to block sweat glands and reduce perspiration. But NUMEROUS studies have raised concerns about the health risks associated with the use of aluminum-based products, linking them to breast cancer, hormonal disruption, Alzheimer's, neurological issues, skin problems, allergic (rejection) reactions, and more. Not to mention the fact that mainstream deodorants contain a host of other harmful ingredients such as parabens, phthalates, triclosan, dimethicone, and artificial fragrances too.
Taking The Reigns
That means you. And us!
In response to growing frustrations about the toxicity of conventional deodorants, handcrafting with safe, clean, and sustainably sourced ingredients has become a MUST. So as we began this company, we knew we wanted to offer a... “safe & effective” (oh how we’ve grown to hate that term, but we’re serious right now) alternative to the mass-produced global industry grossness.
Instead of relying on aluminum to block sweat glands, our aluminum free deodorant contains truly natural ingredients such as arrowroot powder, beeswax, magnesium, & zinc to neutralize odor and absorb moisture. This not only eliminates the health risks associated with aluminum & the other nasty ingredients, but it also allows the body to regulate its natural detoxification (cleansing) process through perspiration.
Yes, you need to sweat!
Why OUR Natural Deodorant?
- Aluminum-Free: No cancer causing neurotoxins here. Our aluminum free deodorant removes the risk of aluminum based deodorant related health issues once & for all.
- Non Toxic Formulation: With a focus on using truly natural and organic ingredients, our deodorants are free from synthetic & toxic chemicals (no aluminum!), parabens, phthalates, and other harmful additives, making them safe for both your body and our world.
- Baking Soda-Free: While baking soda is a common ingredient in many natural deodorants for its odor-neutralizing properties, some individuals may experience skin irritation or sensitivity to it. We DO NOT use baking soda, which means your skin will not break out in the oh-so-common burning "baking soda rash."
- Chemical Free: Or should we say, "Toxic" Chemical Free. ALL substances naturally contain chemicals, but we make sure we only use unadulterated ingredients from nature. And if there is any refining or processing, it's minimal & done naturally. This way you're not exposing yourself to harmful chemicals... and neither are we.
- Deodorant for Sensitive Skin: Our deodorants are crafted with gentle, skin-nourishing ingredients that are ideal for individuals with sensitive skin prone to irritation or "allergic" reactions.

Making the Switch: Tips For Transitioning To Natural Deodorant
- Detoxify: Dry brushing or charcoal/clay masks can help accelerate the detox process and reduce odor during any transition phase (which you may or may not need, depending on where you are in your health journey). NOTE: We're working on a new pit detoxing kit that we're hoping to release in 2024!
- Start Slow: Transitioning to a natural deodorant may involve an adjustment period as your body detoxifies from the chemicals that were in your previous mainstream products. Start by using it sparingly if you need to, and gradually increase usage as your body acclimates. NOTE: Don't use too much! More is not always better... We recommend a pea-size or less, unless you have overly large pits.
- Keep Going: Consistency here. Stick with it, and you'll most likely find that your body adjusts fairly quickly, if you even need to adjust at all. If you're struggling with it, please reach out for help!
