NALA - Free-From Natural Deodorant
The Origins of Nala
In 2013, we lost a vital member of our family to cancer.
Alan – father, husband, friend, and mentor – whose energy was contagious and had a tendency towards larger than life ideas – was claimed by stage 4 non-small cell lung cancer. It felt too cruel and it definitely felt too soon to lose someone deserving of so much more life.
Deep loss inspired deeper inquiry, and as we waded through the realities of health and wellbeing, Nala grew from an idea into a necessity. We became incapable of ignoring an issue that rattled us deep within – a value we carry forth into what Nala stands for today.
Leveraging our backgrounds in biotech engineering and technology, our goals are twofold:
1. Change the way we, as a society, view health & self care by providing high quality products free from negative side effects.
2. End the meaningless suffering that comes from losing loved ones too soon.
All Nala free-from deodorant is free from
- Aluminum: changes your estrogen receptors; linked to liver, kidney and brain issues
- parabens: mimic estrogen in the body; cause cancer
- propylene glycol: considered a neurotoxin; known to cause liver and kidney damage
- carcinogens: substances that can lead to cancer
- phthalates: interfere with, mimic or block hormones
- cruelty: None of our products will ever be tested on animals.
"We believe that when you’re free from the shame, anxiety, and pressure that too often accompany the concept of beauty, you have the freedom to truly care for yourself"
