CUSTOMER FEEDBACK:

I just want to say how much I love your products! I started buying the Bergamot Bliss body cream years ago and it is the only one I use now. I purchased the mint lip balm today and I love it equally! Your soaps are also amazing. Thank you so much for being there and continuing your business. I will continue to support you as long as you exist ; )

Unfortunately I didn't purchase this deodorant from your website but I did from a naturopathy. Hence the email vs being able to leave feedback on the site. Regardless, I just wanted to say; absolutely spot on with the gentlemen's blend deodorant, it's a revelation really. It's my first experience with your products and I'll happily search them out in the future!

Switching to natural deodorant

 

Conventional deodorant and especially antiperspirants are known to block pores, in the case of antiperspirants aluminum is typically used to block the sweat ducts.
Initially when moving to a natural deodorant, you can find for the first few days that you seem to sweat more, this is due to the pores slowly unclogging from the commercial antiperspirants.

 

Once the detox period is completed you should find that your body adjusts and our natural deodorant keeps your underarm dry and fresh. The great news is that in our experience our natural deodorant works better the longer you use it.

 

Using the natural deodorant

 

Ensure that your under arm is clean and dry.
The deodorant applys best when warm, apply the stick to your under arm, allow to warm for a few seconds then apply a small amount with a single glide, repeat just once more if needed.
Applying too much will reduce effectiveness, and possibly result in staining on clothing. Trying to apply without warming can causing irritation due to the drag.

Reed Diffuser Usage

If scent needs increasing remember to flip the reeds, and swirl the liquid around.
Usage Option A:
  1. Pour 80ml of fractionated coconut into your container.
  2. Add 15 to 20 ml of your choice of essential oils (Check scent strength and increase as needed at this stage).
  3. Stir until the carrier oil and the essential oils are completely mixed.
  4. If you notice any separation, periodically swill around liquid.
  5. You can add 1 to 2 table spoons of everclear or vodka to increase diffusion.

Cautions:

Keep away from children and pets it goes without saying neither essential oils or grain alcohol mix well with children or pets especially in this concentration. When the scent drops, clean out and start again. Reeds can be used for around 6 months.  Ensure surfaces are protected.

 

Usage Option B:
  1. Pour 50ml of Everclear grain alcohol into your container.
  2. Add in a minimum total of 30 drops of your choice of essential oils (Check scent strength and increase as needed at this stage).
  3. Stir until the alcohol and the essential oils are completely mixed.
  4. Add in 50ml of hot water (around 40°C).
  5. If you notice any separation, periodically swirl around liquid.

Cautions:

Keep away from children and pets it goes without saying neither essential oils or grain alcohol mix well with children or pets especially in this concentration. When the scent drops, clean out and start again. Reeds can be used for around 6 months.  Mixing additional essential oils after the water has been added can lead to separation. Ensure surfaces are protected.
