FAQ
How does Ancestral Cosmetics Tallow Deodorant work?
Our deodorant works by neutralising bacteria that are the main cause of body odour. Gentle ingredients like magnesium hydroxide and non-nano zinc oxide neutralise bacteria that are causing body odour and ingredients like arrowroot powder help to absorb the sweat instead of stopping the body from sweating.
Does Tallow Deodorant contain aluminium?
No, tallow deodorant doesn’t contain aluminium. It also doesn’t contain any toxic chemicals, parabens, toxic preservatives, triclosan, artificial fragrances, refined seed oils or petroleum-based ingredients.
Is Tallow Deodorant an antiperspirant?
No, Tallow Deodorant is NOT an antiperspirant. Antiperspirants usually contain aluminium that completely prevents the sweat, blocking the pores and trapping the sweat (and toxins) in your body.
This prevents the natural detoxification process and can cause health issues. Tallow deodorant neutralises odour-causing bacteria and helps to absorb sweat, keeping you smelling good while not disrupting the body's natural detoxification processes.
I am still sweating while using deodorant, is this normal?
Yes, sweating is a normal and healthy way for our body to detoxify itself and it shouldn’t be prevented. Our deodorant won’t stop you from sweating but active ingredients inside will help to absorb the sweat keeping you dry most of the time.
However, everybody sweats differently and some people sweat more than others so they may need a different approach or more regular application. If you struggle to stay dry or if you just prefer drier pits, we recommend applying 2-3 swipes every 3-4 hours.
How often can I apply my deodorant?
We recommend 2-3 gentle swipes 1-2 times per day but if you want drier pits, you can reapply it every 3-4 hours.
Does tallow deodorant contain baking soda?
No, our tallow deodorant doesn’t contain baking soda.
Do you use perfume (fragrance) in your formula?
No, we don’t use perfume or fragrance oils in our deodorant.
Our scented deodorants are made with a blend of 100% pure essential oils and our unscented deodorant is essential oil free.
I am sensitive to essential oils, what deodorant should I choose?
Our Unscented Deodorant has been created for people sensitive to essential oils or looking for a neutral scent in their deodorant. It is formulated without any essential oils and has a natural scent.
How to apply tallow deodorant?
- Hold to pit to soften for 5-10 seconds with your hand (or hold the deodorant on your armpit).
- Swipe down 2-3 times
- Smell great
For external use only. Skin sensitivities may occur. Do not apply directly after shaving. Do not over-apply or use on broken skin. Keep out of reach of children.
How long will one deodorant last?
One deodorant tube should last between 2-3 months depending on the use.
My deodorant is too hard, what do I do?
Our deodorant is made from only natural ingredients and as such can be more susceptible to temperature changes. It is normal for tallow deodorant to be slightly harder during colder months. To soften it, hold it on the pits for 5 seconds or longer if needed and then give it a swipe.
Is this deodorant going to stain my clothes?
Our deodorant won’t stain clothes if applied correctly. We recommend applying the deodorant after putting on your clothes. 2-3 swipes is all it takes so don't overdo it.
Store it at room temperature, away from sunlight to make sure your deodorant has the right structure to use.
Why are you using plastic packaging instead of cardboard for your deodorant?
While cardboard deodorant tubes are being touted as a sustainable alternative they come with some significant drawbacks.
The cardboard is not waterproof nor oilproof which means the product would leak out unless the tube is lined from the inside with a water/oilproof liner. So cardboard tubes come with a thin plastic (or soy paper) liner on the inside, similar to paper coffee cups.
This hair-thin liner has a much higher potential to melt and leak into the product when a hot deodorant is poured in than hard plastic containers do.
Manufacturers of these cardboard tubes often try to hide the contents of the liner itself, which often contains questionable chemicals like BPA or BPS, even though they are promoted with nice sounding names such as "soy paper liner".
At the same time, those cardboard containers are just a pain to use as deodorant needs to be pushed up with a finger, leading to overusing or wasting deodorant, and messy containers that get banged up when travelling or taking your deodorant to the gym.
So our conclusion was that cardboard tubes are neither healthier nor more sustainable in the long run compared to virgin plastic tubes we use.
