Why We Trust This Brand

Humble Brands earns trust through radical simplicity. Five ingredients in the original formula. They have resisted the temptation to add trendy ingredients or reformulate for marketing purposes. The company remains founder-owned and keeps prices genuinely affordable — something rare in the natural deodorant space.

Ingredient Deep Dive

Ingredient Safety 9/10

Original formula: organic coconut oil, corn starch, baking soda, beeswax, essential oils. Sensitive formula replaces baking soda with magnesium hydroxide. That is the complete ingredient list. No preservatives needed because the formula contains no water. Scored 9 because essential oils provide scent, and baking soda can irritate sensitive skin (though they offer a baking soda-free option).

Certifications

Leaping Bunny Cruelty-Free Vegan Options Available
