The concept of the "Higher Self" refers to the most authentic, wise, and spiritually aligned aspect of who you are. It embodies your true essence beyond ego, societal expectations, or temporary emotions. The Higher Self is often thought of as your inner guide—deeply connected to universal consciousness or divine wisdom—that knows your soul's purpose and leads you toward growth, balance, and fulfillment.

Guided by nature and inspired by ancient wisdom, Higher Self crafts natural deodorants like PATCHOULI PRADO—designed to awaken your senses and align your energy.

Each use is more than self-care; it’s a reminder to embody your Higher Self.

Most deodorants simply try to cover up the odor. No wonder they don’t work! We made a better product with a smarter, multi-faceted approach that addresses all of the causes of B.O., while also promoting healthier skin.

Higher Self helps keep you dry with powerhouse team of moisture absorbers, including mineral-rich Diatomaceous Earth, Arrow Root Powder, Tapioca Starch and Coconut Oil. Probiotics provide additional protection to prevents odor before it starts, while also keeping the microbiome in a healthy balance. Finally, our formula nourishes, soothes and hydrates skin with the power of natural marine botanicals, like Kelp and Algae.

Our ingredients are blended in amounts that are proven to be effective at stopping stink. Bacteria on your body is what causes underarm odor because bacteria thrive in warm, moist surroundings. Your best bet for controlling body odor is to fight bacteria. Our product works by teaming up Magnesium hydroxide, a Dead Sea salts to fight odor causing bacteria with a refreshing fragrance crafted only from essential oils to keep you fresh and odor free.

Our formula is a deodorant and not an antiperspirant. This means that they will help to reduce the odor that is caused by bacteria. In areas like under your arms, sweat cannot easily evaporate, causing the feeling of wetness. We include ingredients in our formula to help you feel dry, but we do not use aluminum to prevent you from sweating. Sweating is natural in many situations and carries out an important bodily function. The main reason you sweat is to cool your body and regulate your temperature, both very important functions to keep your body working effectively

Antiperspirant works by temporarily plugging sweat ducts, while deodorant works on top of the skin. If you are moving from an antiperspirant to a deodorant, you may experience an adjustment period. During this time, you may notice an increase in sweat and odor. Some people don't experience this adjustment period at all, but if you do, it can take up to one month to adjust to the deodorant. 

No, Higher Self does not carry an antiperspirant. Antiperspirants work by plugging your pores to prevent sweat.  The FDA only allows aluminum to perform this function, thus aluminum-free antiperspirants do not exist. We believe that sweating is a natural and important process, so we do not use aluminum to prevent sweat.  Instead, we use ingredients in the formula to help absorb sweat on the surface of the skin and keep you feeling dry.
