About Us
Hi there! We are Samara (on the left) and Toni (on the right), and Harry, in the middle with the epic hair.
Kissing Chickens is more than just a natural deodorant company - we're a passion project born from the intersection of animal welfare, sustainable living, and effective personal care.
Our Story
Founded by Samara and Toni, two registered nurses with over 45 combined years of experience in the health sector, Kissing Chickens emerged from a need for a deodorant that aligned with our values and actually worked. We needed something that could withstand long shifts in full PPE without reapplication, while being kind to our skin, the planet, and animals.
Our Products
We've developed a range of bicarb-free natural deodorants using magnesium hydroxide to inhibit odor-causing bacteria. Our formulas are silky smooth, non-irritating, and provide all-day freshness. We offer both stick and paste options, along with a variety of natural solid scents crafted from pure essential oils.
Our Sanctuary
The name Kissing Chickens reflects our deep commitment to animal rights, inspired by our sanctuary, Connie's Coop, located in North Queensland, Australia. Here, we rescue and rehome chickens from various circumstances, including ex-battery hens, injured birds, and roosters abandoned in the bush. In 2021 alone, we coordinated the rescue and rehoming of 1,600 hens, along with ducks, geese, and even a pig named Pablo! Our sanctuary is a safe haven for chickens and other animals, where they can thrive and live out their lives in peace.
Our Commitment
We're committed to creating products that are:
- Vegan and cruelty-free
- Free from harsh chemicals, aluminum, parabens, and sulfates
- Packaged in eco-friendly, recyclable materials
- Effective and long-lasting
