Un nuevo estándar y una gama que comienza con una cosa.
Relanzamos la marca con una gama de productos más reducida y normas estrictas para el etiquetado de nuestros ingredientes. Aquí te contamos por qué empezamos con desodorantes naturales.
Hosanna is starting again. The range is smaller, the pace is slower, and we are much stricter about what we say. We have a new look, a new rule for our labels, and a range that opens with one product made properly rather than six made quickly.
Why we reduced our product range
The honest answer is that we were making more than we could stand behind. A large range creates work that compounds:
- Every new product needs another formula to test.
- Every new formula needs another supply chain to verify.
- Every new product page needs copy that is completely true.
Past a certain point, a wide range stops being generous. It becomes a way of hoping nobody looks too closely at any one product. So we stopped, and we restarted with a single category.
Why we chose deodorant first
Deodorant is the category where a weak formula is hardest to disguise. It is also the product we are asked about most, and the one where the distance between marketing promises and actual ingredients is often the widest.
- Daily use. You apply it every day, often to freshly shaved skin.
- Clear results. It either agrees with your body chemistry or it does not.
- Nothing to disguise it. A pleasant scent cannot cover a formula that does not work.
The range opens with five scents across four collections. All five use a cocoa butter and coconut oil base, with no aluminum and no baking soda. Every ingredient is printed on the packaging and explained on the product page, including the ingredients that are there for comfort rather than performance. Leaving those out quietly would be a false claim of its own.
What has changed
- Eco-friendly packaging. Our packaging is now eco-friendly.
- In-house production. We blend our own formulas by hand, in small batches, in Florida.
- Honest promises. We will not tell you what a product will do for you, because a natural deodorant performs differently for every person. We publish the full ingredient list so you can decide whether it suits you.
How a natural deodorant performs varies with your body chemistry, your diet, and what you used before. A brand that promises one result for everybody is either guessing or counting on you not to complain. That is a harder sentence to write than a marketing promise, and a much easier one to keep.
¿Qué sigue?
More products will follow. We will develop them the same way and release them when they are ready, rather than to a calendar. We will not announce a date we might miss or a category we have not finished. When something is close, you will read about it here first.
If you have bought from us before, thank you for waiting. If you are new, start with the collection that best matches your morning routine, and tell us if we got it wrong. We would rather hear that from you than hear nothing.
