Triumph & Disaster - BODY
Keep your hands clean, and your head clear with our range of Body products.
At Triumph & Disaster, we say that it’s good to sweat.
Sweat is one of the signs of a normal, healthy functioning system. Our ethos is to work with the body’s natural flow by working with it to limit excess moisture and control the aromas created through the excretion of sweat. It’s this control of aroma that we are most interested in. With our deodorant ‘Spice’ our goal is to limit body odour by impairing the bacteria that produce it, dousing them with hypnotic, fragrant notes to create an intoxicating mix of exotic moolah.
Our fragrance is a bespoke heady mix of Frankincense, Bay Leaf and Clove that collide to calm perspiration and neutralise odour. Spice - Deodorant’s ingredients are natural and organic. Its fragrance is exotic but light, evoking a sense of a wild night under the moon that we might have once had when nobody was looking. New Zealand Manuka, Aloe Vera and Kawakawa combine with organic Lavender and the natural benefits of Sodium Bicarbonate to calm perspiration and neutralise our body’s odour. So you can go ahead and Dance.
Things to Know
1/ Manuka, Aloe Vera and Kawakawa combine with organic Lavender and the natural benefits of Sodium Bicarbonate to calm perspiration and neutralise our body’s odour.
2/ Calms sweat and attacks odour, without halting the body’s natural excretion or heating system. We do this by reducing the bacteria on our skin, but only the ones that create odour.

This 175ml tube of Restoration Balm is a reinvention, an evolution of an earlier idea. Like the cassette was to vinyl, the CD to the cassette, Spotify to the CD, evolution, has a tendency to move things along. In this case we went for improved usability, better delivery, and a little aesthetic panache, makes us wonder why we did not do it before.
Restoration Balm is a bespoke blend of Kawakawa, Goji and Dragons blood that desperately seeks parched dry skin on which to lay its cool fragrant touch. It longs to feel the gentle caress of skin on skin, its natural, silky touch calmly taming the surface of your body, while the subtle aroma of Patchouli gently intoxicates the moment with a mystical combination of smoke and wood. Read; Moisturiser that hydrates and protects skin, using natural and exotic ingredients - it smells nice as well. Use daily. Be liberal.
Your Ritual
Apply to dry skin daily for all over hydration. External use only. Avoid contact with eyes.

As a kid growing up my job was to clean the wool shed floors so the shearer's had a tidy workplace when they started each morning, cleanliness is next to godliness and all that.
I have two outstanding recollections of that time, the first is learning to roll a cigarette, the other is the smell of the soap the shearing gangs used to scrub with before heading to 'smoko'.
Like all good memories the facts have no doubt been embellished with time, but when making this body soap it was that smell we wanted and perhaps more importantly the association with a hard day's work, that it evoked.
'Shearer's Soap' is made from a translucent base high in glycerin that makes it incredibly gentle on your skin. Poppy seeds assist exfoliation and provide a massaging effect that works in combination with our bespoke natural fragrance to create a complete cleansing experience.
'Shearers Soap' is safe for the environment, Gentle on skin and strong on the nose. Use Daily for a superb all over body exfoliation.
Things to Know
1/ Infused with Poppy Seed to assist exfoliation and provide a massaging effect.

Despite our best efforts we are forced to acknowledge that in today’s world time is scarce and speed often the order of the moment, so we get what we have right here, which is YLF.
Built the way we want it, which is the way you will have it - rich in Argan oil, Green tea, Vitamin E and Kawakawa extract. YLF is a genuine ‘head, shoulders, knees and toes', that delivers a pleasant, slightly medicinal, Sandalwood and Neroli infused hit on the nose. It is a wash for those with too little time and too much to get done.
Things you Need to Know
When we designed YLF we asked ourselves what should the perfect wash actually do, the answer, four things;
1/ The perfect all-rounder – YLF is T&D’s head, shoulders, knees and toes. Meaning it can do it all, wash the body, clean the hair and even lather for a shave.
2/ Hydrate the skin; we utilise the smoothing and hydrating effects of Argan oil and plant-based surfactants.
3/ It should smell great – but not be too strong or overpowering, because you are in the shower, not a car wash. The sweet combination of Neroli and Sandalwood delivers on this herbal, woody promise.
4/ It should be nutrient-rich – nothing ensures this more than the combination of Argan oil, Kawakawa and Green tea leaf extract.
YLF actively protects the skin’s natural lipid balance and avoids stripping the skin of its moisture and nutrients, it is free of denatured alcohol and concentrated menthols - Triumph & Disaster does not use these ingredients ever.

"Something like intuition, soaked in instinct as fate plays its hand..this is Blanco."
Humans are designed to sweat, armpits in particular have evolved as a key component in our bodies heat management and toxin excretion systems – mess with these at your peril. Sending toxins away from armpits back into the body only creates stress elsewhere by asking other parts of our natural excretion and perspiration systems to do more than what they are designed to do.
So promoting the complete blocking of sweat in the name of self-confidence or comfort is not our bag.
Our ethos is to work with the body’s natural flow by working with it to limit excess moisture and control the aromas created through the excretion of sweat. It’s this control of aroma that we are most interested in. With our deodorant Blanco, the goal is to limit body odour by impairing the bacteria that produce it, dousing them with fragrant notes of Bergamot and Lime.
Things to Know
1/ Kawakawa, Bergamot and Lime combine with organic Lavender and the natural benefits of Baking Soda to calm perspiration and neutralise our body's odour.
2/ Calms sweat and attacks odour, without halting the bodies natural excretion or heating system. We do this by reducing the bacteria on our skin, but only the ones that create odour.
3/ Baking soda is alkaline, meaning it counteracts the bacteria-loving acids in sweat and acts as a natural balancing agent for armpit odour.
