To everyone who has ever used the paste:
Since we announced the retirement of our original paste deodorant, we have received messages filled with frustration, disappointment, gratitude, and deep care. Every message, whether critical or kind, matters to us.
Today, we want to share openly why we made this decision, how we have reflected on it, and where we are headed next.
Why we are letting go of the paste?
The paste works exceptionally well. It stops bacterial body odour at the source without stabilizers, fragrances, or gimmicks and helps thousands who thought nothing else ever would.
But the same qualities that make it effective also make it challenging to support at scale:
- Its texture and viscosity vary naturally because we refuse to use unnecessary additives.
- It needs careful storage due to its stabilizer-free composition.
- It is frequently misunderstood, which necessitates constant explanation and defense.
Despite our efforts to communicate transparently, we are met with recurring accusations:
- That the formula has changed. No, it hasn’t.
- That batches are defective or underfilled. No, they aren’t: we fill by weight, not volume.
- That we are misleading customers. We never do. Our work is grounded in science and science is built to inform, not mislead.
As a small team, this ongoing cycle became emotionally and logistically unsustainable. We realized that the product was no longer being held up publicly by the community that once embraced it and we couldn’t carry it alone.
Behind the scenes, our team faces persistent hostility, much of it from individuals unwilling to read, or unwilling to accept even our clearest explanations. We witnessed speculation evolve into online discussions, and honest scientific responses were dismissed as mere excuses. The emotional toll has been significant.
We understand that disappointment can lead to criticism but much of what we experience crosses the line into abuse. This makes it more challenging to serve those who genuinely depend on us and forced us to make a choice: continue defending ourselves, or begin rebuilding with peace, purpose, and focus.
The paste remains available for now and will stay in stock until the stick deodorant launches or the remaining jars sell out.
What we are building now?
This decision wasn’t made due to a failure of the paste; rather, it was made because defending it was distracting us from our true mission: to innovate in odour care and skin health.
We haven’t sacrificed performance; instead, we have elevated it.
Introducing The SPECTRUM Series
The Spectrum series is our most advanced product line yet. Every product under development remains fragrance-free and excludes common allergens including coconut derivatives, making them a perfect fit for extremely sensitive skin, including conditions like eczema, HS, and post-inflammatory irritation.
SPECTRUM Stick: Under Development
A full-body deodorant stick engineered specifically for sensitive skin and to outperform everything, including our original paste:
- Targets all odours that can be controlled topically: bacterial, stress-induced, hormonal, nonenal (aging), metabolic, and medical-related odours.
SPECTRUM SERUM: Under Development
An advanced serum engineered for whole-body odour control and sensitive-skin support. Designed for areas where the stick isn’t ideal.
Our Commitment
Since day one, every decision at Super Deodorant Labs has followed a simple scientific standard:
- No added fragrance
- No unnecessary excipients
- No functional compromises
If it doesn’t outperform everything, protect more effectively, and remain safe for sensitive skin, it doesn’t leave our lab.

We are opening early access to both the Spectrum 72 Stick and Serum for those who want to be part of the rollout.

Thank You
The paste is the beginning.
It continues to helps thousands reclaim their confidence and gives us the foundation to build what comes next.
To everyone who stands by it, thank you.
To everyone stepping into this next chapter with us: we are building for you.
We are building with more knowledge, more resolve, and the same belief we have held since day one:
You deserve a deodorant that doesn’t just stop odour, it transforms your skin.
We are just getting started.
And what’s coming is worth it.
With deep respect,
The Super Deodorant Labs Team

I am so sorry for all the ugly people of the world. I pray their hearts soften and they control their tongue better in the future. I pray for your entire team that every heart and soul be healed of any frustrations or wounds and that you all be refreshed in your mission to make the world healthier and less stinky.
The paste has been the single most incredible product I have ever discovered. I love that I will go a day or two without applying and completely forget about deodorant altogether. It is the only clean product that doesn’t cause grey stains on the pits of all my shirts! I also believe the regular massaging of the pits during application is most likely helping my lymphatic system and probably helping prevent issues there.
I have wowed so many of my friends by applying this product to stinky pits and immediately the stink is GONE.
Thank you guys for everything you do! I will always be referring people to this product and your further line as well. Looking forward to trying it. <3 God bless you all.
Tank you so much for the super deodorant, it have changed my life and give me back confidence when my underarm odor went strong and hard to control after my menopause . It have made a big difference for me, It was so easy to apply… I hope so much that the next generation will be as efficient. Thanks and felicitations for your work!
I’m sorry to hear this. Homemade natural items always vary, and it’s sad you were basically bullied into having to change.
Please consider doing compostable or reusable packaging in the future. I buy products based off how clean they are for me & Mother Nature.
Paste bothers me as I don’t like rubbing things on my armpits with my hands, I prefer sticks – but finding one that isn’t killing Earth is goal.
So sorry to hear about all the problems you’ve been having! This has been the best deodorant
I have ever used and even though I have 2 in the freezer I will be ordering more before it’s gone!
I’m soooo sad to see this product retire but Im confident the replacement will be even better.
It was an amazing product and it’s sad to hear that the online criticism aided its retirement.
This is the ONLY natural product that has ever works for me….
I’ll be stocking up in the meantime! ♡
