MAGSOL Deodorant was founded in 2009 by John Miranda in Houston, Texas. MAGSOL’s claim to fame is that it is the world’s first natural deodorant to use magnesium oxide to control odor. As a MAGSOL user myself, I can attest to the odor-fighting qualities. The magnesium oxide serves as a less abrasive alternative to baking soda.
In addition to magnesium oxide, MAGSOL only contains three additional ingredients – beeswax, almond oil, and essential oils. These food-grade ingredients were selected carefully for their ability to glide onto skin smoothly and compatibility with sensitive skin. This deodorant is also aluminum-free, paraben-free, phthalate-free, free of synthetic fragrances, sulfate-free, and BPA-free.
The first milk + honey salon was established in 2006 in Austin, Texas. After opening 3 salons, in 2014 the milk + honey product line was created. milk + honey products have no animal testing, artificial dyes, silicones, and sulfates.
For those who are looking for aluminum-free deodorant, milk + honey has one made with coconut oil, baking soda, arrowroot powder, and fruit oils. In addition to being aluminum-free, this extra-strength deodorant is also gluten-free, paraben-free, and free of propylene alcohol.
“Pretty Frank started as “”Primal Pit Paste”” in 2012 in Austin, Texas. The company rebranded in January 2020 to reflect the straightforward nature of founder Amy Perez’s vision for the company. In a sea of products falsely labeled as “”all natural,”” Pretty Frank prides itself on being the real deal.
The natural deodorants made by Pretty Frank are both safe and effective, using only essential oils for fragrance. If you’re still wary of any fragrance, Pretty Frank even has an unscented option. Because of the all-natural nature of the deodorants, their shelf life is two years, but hopefully you use deodorant a little more often than that.”
Natural Deodorant Made for Pre-Teens in Austin, Texas
Started in 2017 by the mom of two pre-teen boys in Austin, Texas, Prep U is a play on “piu” (pronounced pee-yew), an expression used by some to describe a foul odor. The brand is designed for boys ages 8 – 15 who have outgrown baby bath products. Prep U is an environmentally conscious company. Their products are not tested on animals and the packaging is 100% recyclable and BPA-free, so you can feel good while smelling good.
Prep U’s all-natural deodorant is made without parabens, phthalates nano-particles, dyes, sulfates, gluten, GMO, and aluminum. The deodorant is also free of synthetic fragrances and harsh chemicals – the citrus mint scent comes from essential oils instead.
