Humble Brands — What's In Your Box

A gift from Humble Brands

Simple ingredients.
Zero nonsense.
Open the box.

You're holding deodorant, soap, and lip balm made with essential oils and ingredients you can count on one hand. Fresh, clean, and long-lasting — without a single ingredient you'd need to Google. From Taos, New Mexico — where simple wasn't a trend, it was the whole point.

Nothing Bad®

All Humble, No Hype.

Jeff Shardell, Humble Brands Founder, in Taos, NM

Born in Taos, New Mexico

A former Google exec
walked away from
the complicated

Ten years ago, Jeff Shardell left a career at Google because he believed personal care didn't need to be complicated. He looked at the ingredient lists on natural deodorants and thought: this is absurd. Thirty ingredients to do the job of four? He went into his kitchen in Taos and didn't come out until he'd made something that actually worked — with just MCT oil, cornstarch, baking soda, and beeswax.

That kitchen experiment became Humble Brands — a company built on the idea that effective, clean personal care shouldn't require a chemistry degree to understand. The Original Formula deodorant provides all-day freshness with just four base ingredients. For those with sensitive skin, the Vegan & Sensitive Skin formula is completely baking soda-free, using a gentle plant-based alternative that's just as effective.

Today Humble is in over 10,000 stores, including Whole Foods, Sprouts, Target, and Natural Grocers. 3.2 million deodorants sold last year. 25% year-over-year growth. Still made in Taos. Still solar-powered. Still obsessively simple.

The ingredient list is short because the formula doesn't need anything else.

The brand was so good — and so real — that Jason Momoa didn't want to endorse it.
He wanted to be part of it.

Keep scrolling. We'll explain.

Jason Momoa x Humble Brands

Jason Momoa × Humble

He found us.
Not the other way around.

No agent pitch. No sponsorship deck. Jason sought out Humble because it matched how he actually lives — simple ingredients, no plastic waste, no pretense. He's now part of the company, championing the plastic-free paperboard line and pushing the brand toward a world with less virgin plastic.

"I don't wear cologne, I wear Humble deodorant."

— Jason Momoa

His signature scent is in your box. It smells the way conviction feels.

Rockrose & Cedar

Nothing
Bad®

We put four ingredients on the label because that's all that's in there. Then we add essential oils — real ones, sourced for potency, not synthetic fragrance dressed up as "natural." That's it. Read the back of the box. It'll take you three seconds.

Essential Oils

Real ones

No aluminum. No parabens. No artificial fragrance. No dyes. No alcohol. No petroleum. No detergents.
Nothing bad. Literally.

Vegan & Sensitive Skin

Some people are sensitive to baking soda — so we made a formula without it. Our Vegan & Sensitive Skin line uses a gentle plant-based alternative. Same long-lasting freshness, zero irritation.

Patch Test Tip

Switching to natural deodorant? We recommend a small patch test on the inner arm before first use. Everyone's skin is different — and we want your experience to be a great one.

Scented with Real Essential Oils

Scents that do
something

Every Humble scent is handcrafted with real essential oils — never synthetic fragrance. Essential oils aren't just about smell. They have properties that ground, energize, or calm. We organize our scents by how they make you feel.
