Ingredients
Oh™ deodorants are made with ethically sourced botanicals and mineral salts that are naturally derived, effective, and safe for all skin types.
Base formula
Organic Alcohol
Organic can alcohol (ethanol) is used as a base to perfectly suspend all the deodorizing ingredients, ensuring you get equal amounts of awesome with every spray. It is cane alcohol, which means it’s based on sugarcane rather than corn, making it more environmentally friendly. An acre of sugarcane-based ethyl alcohol produces double the amount of ethanol than an acre of the corn-based version.
Because it is certified organic, it's grown without the use of any products that contain pesticides or fertilizers, making it safer for the environment. It's fast evaporation allows the spray deodorants to "quick dry", leaving all the anti-microbial ingredients to work immediately on your skin.
Witch Hazel Water
Witch hazel is a type of plant found in North America. Sometimes called winterbloom, the leaves and bark from the plant are used to make a skin-healing astringent that’s capable of naturally reducing acne, blisters, insect bites, poison ivy, inflammation and much more.
Witch hazel is a strong antioxidant and astringent, perfect for killing bacteria that lives within skin’s pores, stopping cellular damage and preventing signs of aging.
Water
Ah, good ol' H2O! Water is the source of life, keeping us hydrated and nourished. Water is used in the Oh™ blends to help suspend all the odor-fighting ingredients, making for a homogenous mixture.
Sodium Cocoyl Glutamate
Sodium cocoyl glutamate is a mild vegetable-based surfactant derived from from coconut or palm kernel oil and glucose from corn. It is recognized as a natural ingredient by the Natural Product Association and certified by Ecocert, the first certification body to develop standards for natural and organic products. Oh™ blends use this as an emulsifier, helping oil based and water based ingredients to stay mixed
Organic Saccharomyces Ferment
This yeast enzyme eliminates ammonia (the bad, smelly stuff in sweat) to make odorless amino acids. It's quite a magical process! To keep fungi from growing under the arm, the potassium sorbate and sodium benzoate are preservatives in this ingredient that inhibit bacterial growth but don’t alter the enzyme function.
Zinc Ricinoleate
Zinc Ricinoleate is a salt of ricinoleic acid, a major fatty acid found in castor seed oil. It deodorizes by trapping and absorbing odor molecules.
Sodium Citrate
Sodium Citrate is the sodium salt of citric acid, a naturally occurring compoind found in animals and plants, such as lemons. It's used primarily to control the pH levels of the deodorant sprays, as well as provide antioxidant and preservative properties.
Tetrasodium Glutamate Diacetate

Organic Vegetable Glycerine
This pure, certified organic vegetable glycerine is derived from soy and is used to assist in retaining moisture and is helpful in pulling oxygen into the skin. Vegetable glycerine is a clear, colorless, and odorless liquid with an incredibly sweet taste having the consistency of a thick syrup.

It has massive anti-viral, anti-bacterial, and anti-fungal properties. Oregano also helps to reduce inflammation and neutralize free radicals while repairing the damage already done.
Organic Rosemary CO2
