Frequently Asked Questions

Is this truly Halal processed?
Yes. Our tallow is sourced from cattle processed by certified Halal facilities in North Carolina. We hand-deliver our grass-fed beef to certified Halal processors and collect the premium suet fat that becomes the foundation of this deodorant.

Will I go through a detox period switching from conventional deodorant?
Some people do experience a 1–2 week adjustment period as your body recalibrates after years of aluminum-based products. This is normal and temporary. Staying hydrated and applying more frequently during this period helps.

Does it actually work all day?
Yes — for most people. Our formula uses magnesium hydroxide, goldenseal, zinc oxide, and moisture-absorbing powders to neutralize odor at the source. Results vary by body chemistry, but the vast majority of our customers find it effective for a full day.

What is the shelf life?
We suggest using within 6 months of opening. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
