Corpus — High-Performance Natural Deodorants | Superskin
Corpus promises an uncompromising natural deodorant. Founded in 2018 in Los Angeles by JP Mastey, former president of Baxter of California, the brand reinvents deodorant with water-based gel formulas and natural fragrances worthy of haute parfumerie. Live enzymes, certified natural fragrances with complex notes, and iconic mint-green tubes: Corpus refuses to compromise between odor-fighting effectiveness and clean formulation.
What Makes Corpus Unique: Natural Luxury Reinvented
Corpus envisions its deodorants as true objects of desire. After years of experimentation and 34 formula iterations, JP Mastey succeeded where many fail: creating a natural deodorant that glides on perfectly, removes easily, and smells divine. The water-based gel formula represents a major advancement in natural chemistry. Unlike traditional coconut oil-based sticks that are sticky and leave residue, Corpus deodorants melt on contact with the skin, absorb instantly, and dry quickly without leaving any marks on clothing.
Live enzymes derived from plant fermentation are at the heart of Corpus's effectiveness. These enzymes actively destroy odor-causing bacteria rather than simply masking them. Tapioca starch, finer and easier to mix than conventional arrowroot powder, absorbs moisture without irritation. Diatomaceous earth and sustainably sourced mineral actives complete the odor-fighting arsenal. There's no baking soda to irritate sensitive skin, and no coconut oil to leave a sticky residue under the arms.
Corpus perfumes represent a true revolution. JP Mastey has pushed the boundaries of natural perfumery to the extreme, creating aromatically complex compositions with top, middle, and base notes, just like in haute parfumerie. Nº Green blends bergamot, pink lemon, orange blossom, and cardamom. Santalum combines sandalwood, sandalwood root, cedar, and amber. Third Rose weaves together rose, Italian mandarin, and cedar. All these fragrances are certified natural, composed of essential oils, oleoresins, distillates, absolutes, and plant extracts. Zero synthetics, 100% sensory.
Vegan and cruelty-free, without aluminum, parabens, phthalates, SLS, or synthetic fragrances, Corpus manufactures and packages its products in California in a family-owned factory powered by 100% hydroelectric energy. The FSC-certified packaging is made with recycled materials and is fully recyclable. The iconic mint green tubes with gold lettering are more than just an aesthetic choice: they embody Corpus' commitment to creating the most desirable deodorant on a bathroom shelf.
Corpus is for everyone who refuses to compromise. Sensitive skin that can't tolerate baking soda, active people who want long-lasting protection, lovers of beautiful fragrances tired of basic scents, and clean-care consumers fed up with ineffective natural deodorants. The unisex formula is suitable for everyone. Apply to dry skin only to maximize effectiveness; the gel absorbs in seconds and protects all day long without leaving white marks or a sticky feeling.
The Corpus Story: From Baxter of California to the Revolutionary Deodorant
JP Mastey's obsession: Why can't any deodorant brand combine performance, luxury and naturalness?
The experimentation begins. Mastey tests, adjusts, and starts again. He rejects irritating baking soda, sticky coconut oil, and compromises on texture. The water-based gel formula gradually takes shape. Natural perfumers push their boundaries to create compositions worthy of haute parfumerie. By the 34th version, it's finally perfect. The deodorant JP wanted to use himself.
The Cult Corpus Deodorants at Superskin
The gel formula of these deodorants glides on like butter. Applied to dry skin, the product melts instantly and dries in seconds without leaving a damp feeling. No white marks on dark clothing, no sticky feeling under the arms. Protection lasts all day thanks to live enzymes that destroy odor-causing bacteria.
Nº Green Deodorant Stick: Complex Lemon Freshness
The absolute bestseller, the one that started it all. Nº Green is undeniably citrusy yet mysteriously complex. Bergamot, pink lemon, orange blossom, and cardamom blend in a luminous composition that evolves on the skin. Naturally extracted from the root, seed, stem, pulp, and bark, these notes create an addictive fragrance that defies all preconceptions about natural perfumery.
For everyone, especially those looking for a fresh and energizing fragrance without floral notes.
Santalum Stick Deodorant: Sophisticated Woody
For lovers of precious woods. Santalum weaves a composition around sandalwood, sandalwood root, Texas cedar, and amber. A warm, enveloping, sophisticated fragrance reminiscent of the great houses of natural perfumery. Unisex at heart, ideal for those who prefer warm and sensual scents to fresh and citrusy fragrances.
Third Rose Deodorant Stick: Modern Floral
The rose reinvented. Third Rose combines rose with Italian mandarin and cedar for a modern floral composition, a far cry from the dusty, powdery roses of yesteryear. The result is fresh, sparkling, and sophisticated. A rose that will win over even those who think they don't like florals. Unisex, though slightly more floral than Nº Green or Santalum.
What sets Third Rose apart is its ability to add a subtle floral touch without resorting to clichés. Cedar and mandarin perfectly balance the rose to create a contemporary fragrance that's perfect for everyday wear.
