By Humankind Deodorant Reviews
Myro is a startup with offices in New York City. This brand offers a plant-powered natural deodorant that they claim is eco-friendly, non-toxic, and effective. Myro intends to disrupt the deodorant business, receiving $2-million in seed funding from its partner's Entrepreneurs Roundtable, Accelerator, Lakehouse Ventures, and others.
Greg Laptevsky founded Myro after leaving his tenure with the meal-delivery company, "Plated." He saw a gap in the $3.5-billion deodorant market. However, with plenty of other competitors in the market, how would Laptevsky separate the Myro brand from all the other deodorant manufacturers.
The answer came in the form of social media. Laptevsky pre-launched the brand on Instagram. His efforts started attracting plenty of attention for interested millennials willing to sign up for the waiting list. The company launched in later September 2018, with a waitlist of 16,000 excited customers waiting to try the product for the first time.

How Does Myro Deodorant Work?
Myro offers you a reusable outer case that your stock with refills when your deodorant runs dry. Using this model, Myro cuts back on single-use plastics in the personal hygiene sector, providing dome relief for the environment.
With Myro, you get a non-toxic deodorant that's environmentally-friendly. Myro relies on top-quality ingredients for its deodorant. Staphylococcus hominis is the bacteria that causes body odor, and the citrus (triethyl citrate) in the formula helps to eliminate it fast.
The deodorant also includes the use of a probiotic, saccharomyces ferment. This enzyme breaks down yeast and other fungi that start to produce odor. The sage leaf extract and corn starch in the formula help to absorb moisture, keeping you dry.
So, how does Myro perform as a deodorant? Due to all the natural ingredients, you might expect a dry application that picks up your skin. However, it's surprising that Myro goes on easy, and it might be more towards the wet-application side of things than the dry. The aloe base in the formula ensures you get a smooth application every time.
The soothing and buttery feel of Myro on the sensitive skin in your armpits is refreshing, giving you the confidence to go about your day.
