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.

No. This product does not hold The Seal of Approval by the National Eczema Association.

    The best natural deodorant, hands down

    Love, love, love this deodorant. Keeps me smelling fresh all day without irritation or staining. (I can't say this for other natural deodorants I've tried. ) Olibanum, Eucalyptus, and Hinoki all smell amazing! I look forward to putting them on every day. I will forever be loyal so long as the formulation stays the same. This product (the solid) works much better for me than the Necessaire liquid roll on, which I needed to reapply mid-way through the day. Side note: I think the Santal smells gross.

    Best Deo

    I’ve tried every stick and paste under the sun, but they either gave me a rash or just... didn't work. Enter The Deodorant with Mandelic Acid. Honestly, the science makes so much sense—instead of just covering up the smell, the acid actually keeps the odor-causing bacteria from showing up in the first place.

    Why I’m obsessed:

    • No baking soda (aka no itchy red rashes!)

    • It’s a clear gel, so no white marks on my black tees.

    • It actually makes my skin smoother? (The AHA is basically a mini-facial for your pits).

    If you’ve been burned by natural deodorants before, this is the one to try. 10/10.

    This is the best!

    This is just the best deodorant out there. I tried the gel when this was discontinued and it made me stink! So glad that this is back and it's the best! Promise!

    My favorite new deodorant

    I used to love Mando, but I always broke out in a rash with the few scents I liked. Their unscented version worked great, but smelled sour. So I found this as a hopeful mandelic acid scented replacement, and it’s been working great for me! I love the smell, and best of all no reaction.
