Do you question the safety of some of the products we have put on our bodies for decades? Are you looking for an honest line of Canadian products, made transparently with only natural ingredients? Consider go rogue.

Beach natural

We begin our journey away from harsh body products by introducing a line of 100% natural deodorant, made without any chemicals or toxins.

 

First off, we too have been led to believe that as soon as we hit puberty, lather on antiperspirant for good hygiene. Eeeeeekkkk!! As go rogue trailblazers, we are spilling the beans on this craziness! The truth is sweating is okay! It’s how our body regulates heat and eliminates toxins. Clogging our sweat glands with commercial antiperspirants/deodorants is NOT good for our bodies.

 

Let’s get real. Shouldn’t we be reading and knowing what we are putting on our bodies? We get the heebie jeebies when the ingredient list is crazy long and full of words we don’t even recognize at all!

 

Here’s our ingredients: Organic Cold-pressed Virgin Coconut Oil , Pure Unrefined Aluminum-Free Baking Soda, Sulfite free Arrowroot Powder , Nova Scotia Beeswax (for the deodorant sticks), Organic Shea butter (for the deodorant creams) and Therapeutic Grade Essential Oils.

 

We all hear about aluminum in deodorant. What’s the deal? Aluminum is the active ingredient used in antiperspirants to keep our underarms smelling and feeling fresh. Here’s how it works: Aluminum salt, in the form of aluminum chloride, aluminum zirconium, aluminum chlorohydrate and aluminum hydroxybromid, prevent our pits from naturally sweating. Aluminum ions are sucked into our pit cells that coat the sweat ducts. The result: Our pit cells swell, causing the sweat ducts to close so sweat cannot be released.

 

The scary part: Aluminum is a known neurotoxin that has been linked to breast cancer and neurological disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease. We’re not medical professionals but we’re also not personally prepared to risk or gamble our health.

 

Go rogue deodorant is free of aluminum and will not clog our precious sweat glands. Instead, go rogue will kill the bacteria that actually causes us to be stinky!

 

How you ask? Go rogue adds un-refined baking soda to neutralize bacteria that causes odor. Arrowroot powder is used to help us stay dry. These powders are mixed in a base of organic coconut oil to nourish the skin and make the magic happen.

 

We are the creators of change. We ought to be above the systems and structures rather than blindly bow and obey them. Do something today that you future self will thank you for! Join the go rogue tribe and together we can redefine normal.
