FAQ
Questions, answered honestly.
What exactly is 2TRUE?+
A 4 fl oz (118 mL) unscented mineral deodorant spray made with a minimal two-ingredient formula: water and potassium alum.
Is 2TRUE a deodorant or an antiperspirant?+
A deodorant. It is focused on everyday odor care and is not intended or marketed to stop sweat.
Is 2TRUE aluminum-free?+
No. Potassium alum is potassium aluminum sulfate and contains aluminum. It's a different compound from the sweat-reducing ingredients in conventional antiperspirants such as aluminum chlorohydrate, and it's used here in a deodorant rather than an antiperspirant.
Why use potassium alum?+
It has a long history in crystal-style deodorants as a mineral salt used for odor care. Individual results depend on the finished formulation and how it's used.
I have high blood pressure — can potassium alum be absorbed through my skin?+
The potassium alum in 2TRUE works by forming a fine mineral layer that sits on the surface of your skin, rather than soaking into it. The molecule itself is very large — far too big to pass through the skin's outer barrier — so topical use is generally considered safe for people managing high blood pressure. As always, if you have a specific health concern, it's best to check with your doctor.
How is it different from a conventional antiperspirant?+
2TRUE focuses on odor care by working to block odor-causing bacteria, whereas antiperspirants are designed to reduce sweating with sweat-reducing ingredients.
Does it contain fragrance?+
No added fragrance. 2TRUE is unscented by design.
Will it stop me from sweating?+
No. 2TRUE is not an antiperspirant, so it isn't designed to reduce perspiration.
How do I apply it?+
Apply 4–5 sprays to clean, dry underarms and allow to dry before dressing.
Can I use it right after shaving or on irritated skin?+
Avoid broken or irritated skin. If freshly shaved skin feels sensitive, wait until it has settled. Stop use if irritation occurs.
Is 'natural' always safer?+
No. Safety depends on the ingredients, the formula, exposure and the individual. Minimal ingredients do not automatically guarantee safety.
Does 2TRUE cause stains or last 24 hours?+
Those outcomes have not been established through product-specific testing, so we don't make blanket guarantees.
Can I change my address or cancel?+
Yes — through your account and the secure billing portal, subject to your order's processing status.
Who distributes the product?+
ELNEL INC., Conyers, Georgia.
