New Refill Packaging for Our Prebiotic Deodorant

Posted by IT Admin on

What do you think of this idea?

We'd send all Prebiotic Deodorant refills in our beeswax foodwraps, which would:

1- Reduce emissions of shipping glass (glass is heavy and awkward to ship).
2- Give you a 100% zero waste solution for our deodorant.
3- If it works for deodorant, we'd also try this concept for other refills

Watch this vid to see how it would work and let me know in the comments below and CLICK HERE if you'd like to pick up some of our prebiotic deodorant.

NOTE: THIS WEEK (Feb 3rd - 10th '24) we will be adding some beeswax wrapped DEO REFILLS to random orders to test out this concept!

UPDATE On Microwave / melting:  You wouldn't have to microwave the deo to melt it.  Minimum heat in a stainless pot would be fine.  And heating up the deo doesn't impact its efficacy as that's how we get it into the jars in the first place - you melt and pour it.

  • Hello, is this still available? I’d like to try it, if it is. I just messaged you thru IG, as well (fingers crossed). I also appreciate some of the questions re: sustainability, environmental impact (e.g. methane gas) posed by previous commenters, and would love to hear your answers. And I always wonder/wrestle with how justifiable it is for me to order deodorant online and get it shipped here, compared with buying/making things locally… Still in a learning curve on that… Thank you for doing business in ways that are part of that (ongoing) conversation – thru all our purchasing/user choices, whether we realize it or not. Appreciating all of you, ~j.

  • Yes, I would like to try it! It’s a great idea.

  • Where is all that beeswax coming from? How sustainable is that as a packaging material? Is it truly scalable if sales increase 100% fold, 500% fold? What do people do with it if they can’t compost it? From a landfill perspective, does its breakdown result in Methane gas?

  • Love this idea but it can get very hot here in good ole Missouri in the summer months. My front porch faces west and gets direct sun. I work 8-8 so my order could sit out in the heat for hours. Yikes!

  • Think it’s a great idea and love the concept. Would love the body butter to be in a large tin. I drop everything!

  • After softening it I could put it in an old plastic deodorant roll on tube which I prefer to fingers for applying.

  • I would be willing to try it and then give feedback.

  • I would love this refill option as the accumulating glass jars becomes an issue (can’t even give them away!). Have some concerns about the product melting in warmer weather, as others have mentioned.
