ABOUT US
In 1986, long before the rise of today’s multibillion dollar wellness industries, DSA recognized the need for more natural deodorant products. Beginning with the simple, but utterly effective, potassium alum deodorant stone, DSA took no shortcuts, maintaining uncompromising standards to become America’s premier manufacturer of natural stick, spray, roll-on, and powder deodorant.
In 2012, we added our Ayaté line of natural fiber shower and bath accessories. Today, we’re honored to serve millions of customers globally, with loyal customers in all 50 states and more than 30 countries.
Our promises
DSA is committed to good stewardship and best practices, in everything we do.

We guarantee that our products are free from synthetic oils, alcohol, emulsifiers, solvents, synthetic fragrance, propellants, and aluminum metal chemicals.
Effective
Our customers of all ages and genders confirm what we’ve always known: our simple, natural products actually neutralize the odors caused by the combination of bacteria and sweat on the surface of our skin.

We pride ourselves on being trustworthy
But you don’t have to take our word for it. Here’s what our customers have to say:
"I care for many patients with sensitive skin who have difficulty tolerating deodorants and antiperspirants. Based on my training at the Mayo Clinic, I frequently recommend deodorant stones to these patients."
​
-Dr. Patrick Dahl, Dermatologist
“After so many years of using chemical laden deodorant, I was intrigued by the Thai Stone which is nothing but mineral salt. Skeptical, I ordered one and I've been using it ever since because it works so well! It's not an antiperspirant but it goes on wet, dries quickly and I'm not aware of sweating or odor for the rest of the day."

-Robin (via Amazon)
"Even during my infamous 2-hour workouts that I did 7-days a week (before settling down with children), I did not once notice an odor. I even asked my Husband to recently smell my armpits (he’s a good sport), after I had been out running errands in extreme Chicago humid conditions. He told me I didn’t smell…success!!"
