Odor, neutralized
Magnesium hydroxide and zinc — not aluminum, not baking soda. It quiets odor instead of plugging your pores, and it won't leave your skin raw.

Why “reef-safe” actually means something here
Most “ocean” deodorants only borrow the scent. Ours earns the name: aluminum-free, free of the synthetic musks and antibacterials that build up in marine life, and shipped in a bamboo tube made with ocean-bound plastic — recovered from the coastline before it reached the reef.
