Life Support (FAQs)

First of all, let's talk about sweat. In our experience as lymphatic wellness specialists, hyperhidrosis is a phony diagnosis. While antiperspirant marketing campaigns are selling you products to stop wetness, the chemicals in their products are actually making you wet. 

Their aluminum-laced products are designed block your sweat glands. But your amazing lymph nodes are fighting back, pumping extra water to the area in an attempt to flush out the invading chemical toxins.  So many folks who think of themselves as super sweaty, actually have an immune system fighting to protect them from chemical products! Wow.

Enter lifestinks.  It ...

Yes! All of our deodorants are unscented. Our lavender, cedarwood and tea tree essential oils aren't fragrances.  They are active ingredients with a job to do: keeping you odor free.  

Keep in mind that "scent" or "perfume" is a term from the chemical industry.  It allows chemically-based brands to hide up to 3,000 chemicals behind the term "perfume".  To create unscented products, they put in chemicals to make other smells go away.  It doesn't necessarily mean purity.   

For the dry deodorant: Sprinkle on tips. Pat on pits.

For the stinkstick: roll on fingertip and then massage into pits.  Never use the roll-on directly in your armpit. 

We love lifestinks and other life-changing products we make and think you will, too. In fact, as Sisters who ran a healing center for years, we're normally able to help you solve the bump in the road before giving up on you and your successful transition to a healthy deodorant. If you are having any "issues" making the switch, contact us. If we can't figure it out together, you can of course return or exchange your products within 30 days of receipt for a full refund. But we always try to help you first! We prefer to help you be happy and to reduce the waste of returns. 

In fact, we’re so confident that you’ll love lifestinks that we’ll even cover the cost of return shipping.
