Clean Ingredients. Full Transparency.
Every ingredient serves a purpose. Here are the highlights — with the complete list just below.
Nourishing Base
Shea Butter · Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride · Beeswax
Shea butter and a lightweight plant-derived oil delicate underarm skin, while beeswax gives the stick its smooth, solid form.
Odor Neutralizers
Sodium Bicarbonate (Baking Soda) · Zinc Ricinoleate · Magnesium Hydroxide
Baking soda neutralizes odor on contact and zinc ricinoleate traps odor molecules. Magnesium hydroxide is the gentler, baking soda-free option.
Texture & Moisture
Sunflower Seed Wax · Arrowroot Powder
Sunflower seed wax adds a smooth glide, while arrowroot powder absorbs moisture to keep you dry and comfortable all day.
Skin Protection
Non-Nano Zinc Oxide · Tocopherol (Vitamin E)
Non-nano zinc oxide stays on the skin's surface to protect, and vitamin E nourishes with natural antioxidants.
⚠️ Sensitive to baking soda? We offer a baking soda-free version that's just as effective.
Loved by Our Community
"I am absolutely in love with my lavender and lemon deodorant! It's clean, smells great, and I find that I don't have to wear it day after day because it works so well. I have been letting my friends know."
"True friend came up on Instagram feed and I immediately went to the website and I saw that the ingredients were natural so I ordered it. I have been looking for a all-natural deodorant and this is it. I absolutely love this stuff I love the scent. Even if it's not in your budget it's worth it. I was having issues with regular deodorant that I now no longer have. And since using it I don't have to use it ALL the time. I'm hooked!"
"I was in the hospital with a family member for over 24 hours and I didn't stink at all when we got home. I really love this deodorant and so glad I finally have one that lasts! Definitely going to keep buying!"
Zesty Lemon Meets
Calm Lavender.
Lavender has been used for thousands of years for its calming, skin-soothing properties. It's naturally anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and one of the most universally loved scents in the world. We pair it with a lift of bright lemon to keep it fresh and energizing rather than heavy.
The result is a scent that feels like a deep breath — clean, calming, and uplifting all at once. Our most popular pick for sensitive skin and anyone who loves a fresh, clean scent.

Lavender + Lemon FAQs
Yes — Lavender + Lemon is our most recommended scent for sensitive skin. Lavender is naturally anti-inflammatory and antibacterial, making it especially soothing for underarm skin. If you're prone to irritation from deodorants, this is the scent to start with. We also offer a baking soda-free version for extra sensitivity.
It's beautifully balanced — not a heavy floral, and not an overpowering spa-steam-room lavender. The lemon brightens and lightens it so it feels fresh and clean rather than heavy or perfumey. It settles into a very soft background scent throughout the day that most people describe as calming and clean.
One stick typically lasts 2–3 months with daily use. Apply a thin, even layer — a little goes a long way with our formula. Overapplying doesn't increase effectiveness and will use the product faster.
The standard version contains baking soda, a powerful natural odor neutralizer. Some people experience irritation from baking soda on sensitive underarm skin. Our baking soda-free version uses magnesium hydroxide instead — equally effective but gentler. If you've had reactions to natural deodorants before, try the baking soda-free version first.
When applied correctly — thin layer, wait 1–2 minutes before dressing — it should not leave marks. Unlike aluminum antiperspirants, our formula won't cause yellow staining on fabric over time. Apply sparingly and let it absorb before getting dressed.
Completely normal — and actually a great sign! Conventional antiperspirants physically block sweat glands with aluminum. When you stop using them, your body goes through a 1–2 week detox as your pores clear. The sweating normalizes after this, and most customers find they actually sweat less than they did on conventional antiperspirant once fully adjusted.
