Routine Cream FAQ's

3 Formulas? You people are so generous! How can I choose?

This is very much a question of personal preference.  All four formulas control odour for the majority of our clients, however, we want you to find the perfect signature routine for you- that's why we have so many options! Here are a few notes for each formula: 

 

Beeswax Formula .{bee} Maggie’s Citrus Farm

• Consistency does not vary as beeswax acts as natural stabilizer (beeswax is from Alberta's own Nixon Honey)
• Scented with edible, organic flavor oils 
• The ommision of clay lends itself to a sweet, less earthy scent

 

Clay & Beeswax Formula - WITH Baking Soda {wolf} Like a Boss, Sweet Jane, A Girl Named Sue

• Clay naturally absorbs sweat
• Consistency does not vary as beeswax acts as stabilizer (beeswax is from Alberta's own Nixon Honey)
• Creamiest consistency
• Like a Boss: our strongest formula yet
• A Girl Named Sue: sensitive skin formula (contains half the baking soda), see below for extra-sensitive baking soda free scents.

 

Clay & Beeswax Formula - WITHOUT Baking Soda, Extra-Sensitive  {wolf}
The Curator, Baking Soda Free Blackberry Betty, Baking Soda Free Johnny's Cash

• Clay naturally absorbs sweat
• Consistency does not vary as beeswax acts as stabilizer (beeswax is from Alberta's own Nixon Honey)
• Creamiest consistency
• While baking soda is not harmful, some people do have a sensitivity to baking soda as it is more alkaline than our bodies and can throw some people's pH levels off at certain times, resulting in skin sensitivities. The baking soda has been replaced with dietary magnesium and works just as effectively as our original formulas! Many people are deficient in magnesium and a lack of magnesium can cause sweat to be stinkier! Using magnesium topically is highly effective!

 

Why are there animals on your jars?

Honestly, because when we started our company, we thought it would be fun to put a bird on it. Then the other formulas were created. Bee= beeswax, wolf=mighty. Slightly confusing, but cute none the less!

 

What routine is best for sensitive skin?/Sometimes I get a rash.

routine's new baking soda free natural deodorant line up is here!

Of course, we have to give our good pal baking soda credit. It is an amazing natural product, deodorizer and the star of our original well-loved formulas (which will always be available). The thing is, baking soda is alkaline and for some people, at certain times, it can throw off their pH balance, in turn causing skin sensitives. This is why, for our friends with sensitive skin, we have created four new deodorants (The Curator, and baking soda free: Johnny's Cash and Blackberry Betty) in which baking soda is replaced with dietary magnesium - a mineral that if you're not getting enough of, can cause your sweat to smell worse! As it happens, topically, magnesium works like a charm and makes our new formula just as effective as the original routine. Another benefit of magnesium: it aids in relaxing the armpits, which in turn, fends off those woeful stress sweats! Did we mention you can use this routine on cuts, scrapes, and wherever else you need external calming or deodorizing? Amazing! Magnesium is a front-runner in the health and wellness world and we're excited to help you get your daily dose! + + positive!

 

How much should I use?

With routine, less is more. We suggest trying a pea sized amount as this is adequate for the majority of people. Try this amount and increase or decrease based on how it works for you.

 

What's the best one if I'm supa stinky!

Choose like a boss - our newest, and strongest formula yet!

 

Can children use routine?

Yes! Kids love routine and can choose whichever scent they gravitate towards. The two scents that we would recommend for kids are Sweet Jane and Blackberry Betty - flavoured with organic, natural and delicious (they are even edible!) flavour oils. Our flavour oils come from Nature's Flavors based out of California. These oils are the same products organic candies are flavoured with.
