What Is The Difference Between The Deodorant And The Deodorant Gel?

The Deodorant and The Deodorant Gel both contain Mandelic Acid as the active ingredient for clean odor control. The Deodorant is a soft solid stick ideal for normal-to-heavy odor control. The Deodorant Gel is a clear, quick-dry and no residue liquid gel ideal for light-to-normal odor control.

Answer


Why Is pH Level Mentioned On The Package?

During the formulation process we optimize the pH of the formula. We believe it directly impacts the safety and efficacy of the formula. The pH objective will vary based on product purpose. On the secondary packaging (carton) we provide a pH range. The reason a pH range is indicated is that pH may vary during the manufacturing process and/or slightly change over time. Formula that does not contain enough water, will not have a pH listed.

Answer


Is This Product Certified Eczema-Safe?

Yes. This product does hold The Seal of Approval by the National Eczema Association.

Answer


Can I Use The Product If I Am Pregnant?

We formulate without ingredients on the EU's prohibited substances list (Regulation No.1223/2009, Annex II). This formula is Dermatologist-Tested and Hypoallergenic. If you have any specific concerns, we recommend consulting your doctor prior to use.

Answer


Is This Product Certified Gluten-Free, Soy-Free And Nut-Free?

This product is not certified gluten-free, soy-free or nut-free. This product is manufactured in a facility where gluten, soy and nuts may be used. If you have an allergy to gluten, soy or nuts, we recommend that you do not use this product. If you still wish to try, please consider a patch test.

Answer



Customers say this deodorant effectively controls odor and works throughout the day, even for heavy sweaters. Many praise the smooth application, pleasant scents, and lack of irritation compared to alternatives. Users with sensitive skin appreciate that it doesn't cause rashes or itching. Common feedback highlights the thicker texture, lightweight feel, and long-lasting formula—a single container lasts several months. Some report staining on dark clothing and packaging issues where product gets trapped. A few experience diminished effectiveness over time or find certain scents overpowering. Overall, most find this a reliable option for odor control.

    The search is over

    It’s been a long search, but it’s finally over. This is the best deodorant on the market, for my needs. In my late 40s my brand stopped working consistently, suddenly no arms and no hammer. Found 2 great scents from a trusted brand based in Maine, but they mainly gave me a rash. Tried a slew of others with no success, “Hi Gene,” UM, BS, and another named after the Sopranos lead character. None stood up to my unique rank and vile aroma. Until this one, Eucalyptus solid. Ordered the gel recently just for comparison. Will try one or two other scents and am using the Eucalyptus lotion and body wash too. Burn my bags, baby, I am home.

    It lasts!

    I have been using the shower gel and body lotion in this scent and love the beautiful combination of cypress and citron. So, I decided to try the deodorant and am impressed by how effective it is as a deodorant. Bonus: while the body lotion fades after a few hours, the luscious, woodsy scent lasts all day!
