Natural/Aluminum-Free Deodorant (with baking soda): Paraben Free, Phthalate Free, Not Tested on Animals (Lavender Rose)

This deodorant *really* works, which is a first for me, having tried many brands and formulations of all-natural deodorants. It really lasts all day long. The scent (I got Tweed and Spice) is nice, and very subtle; it does have some similarity to Green Irish Tweed (the classic scent designed for Cary Grant) which I'm guessing it is in reference to. Don't rely on this if you want people to smell you and comment on it; while nice, it isn't strong enough for others to smell, and if you wear another scent it will not compete at all. The stick itself is not a clear gel, but it is not a dry powder either. It is gel-like but also has some off-white solid opacity to it. However, it goes on very thin and clear. I don't see any white deposits on my armpits, and I have not noticed any product transferring over to any of my shirts. You get a lot for your money: it's a large, substantial product, a good width comparable to other mens deodorants, and has quality packaging that functions really well. I'm really happy to have discovered this product. It blows away all the other natural deodorants out there, of which I've tried at least a dozen. Also, I have sensitive skin, and I'm happy to report that I have absolutely no redness when using this product. I will definitely buy this again.One thing to note: Thus far, I have only tried this in cold weather. I'm waiting to see, yet, how it holds up in hot and humid summer days. But, I have high hopes.

For (SmartyPits - Natural/Aluminum-Free Deodorant (with baking soda) 2.9oz (Baby Powder) After one whole month I am impressed by this deodorant. No itching, no discoloration, no rash. It's strictly the aluminum that causes me serious issues. The baking soda did me no damage. The aroma is gentle and I smell good all day long and even when I apply it at night I still smell good in the morning. I might sweat, but I don't smell like wet dog anymore. I don't get painful ingrown hairs either.This is a little sticky when applying. I put a dusting of powder on after rubbing on the deodorant and that takes care of the problem. No discoloration on my nice shirts, even after laundering. I still have a generous amount of the tube left. I anticipate this will last about 2 months for my average once daily use. Aside from the "sticky" issue this is almost a perfect replacement for Secret's baby powder deodorant.

I am very pleased with the results of the product. It has a pleasant scent. It’s very thick rolling on, that would be the one thing I would like to see rectified. But it does get absorbed quickly.

I have been a ‘Secret’ girl since I was 8 years old. In the past I have tried salt sticks, Tom’s, and other aluminum free deodorants and simply put… They don’t work. Not for me anyway. So I have always gone back to Secret. This summer I had a breast reduction and 3 large cysts removed from my breasts. I decided it was time to give the aluminum free another try. My niece recommended I detox my pits so I got a tub of Pacifica and use it weekly and Smarty Pits daily. I only shower a few times a week and it lasts! I have had comments on the smell of my essential oils when wearing lemongrass. It’s strong and has a clean smell. My favorite is the Rosemary and Mint. I only wish there was a vanilla based scent since that is typically my standard scent with perfume and deodorant. Otherwise, this stuff rocks. I highly recommend in combination with the pacifica scrub.

We have tried (myself and for my tow teenagers) seven different natural deodorant products. Most of them work until you actually workout and then you smell like flowery or fruity B.O. SMARTY PITS WORKS! the scent is great and does not seem perfumey, the consistency is good - not too goopy or dry - it holds up all day long and it comes off easily in the shower. As a doctor i cannot stress enough the importance of using thoughtful and chemical free deodorants, especially for young developing bodies.Side Note: If you are transitioning TO natural deodorants there is a TRANSITION period where you will sweat a little ore and stink a little bit as your body adjusts and your sweat glands are actually allowed to breathe and work! but after that process, most people are good to go! Winter is the perfect time to make this healthy change and SMARTYPITS was good scents without smelling fake!

This stuff is fantastic and the coconut mango smells wonderful, even 24 hours later! No BO! I had been using "Hug me" by Blume which is unscented and works well but the texture is so rough that it hurts, would not recommend. I'm very happy to have found this which has passed my partner's "sniff test" 24 hours after application. He isn't the biggest fan of my love of natural products, very skeptical, but he is going to ditch his store-bought deodorant and give this a try, that means it works! I'll update if I notice any negative side effects like other users did.Update: Coconut mango and tweed & spice (more of a masculine scent) are the best scents imo. Eucalyptus Spearmint is the worst, I do not recommend it.I've decided this deodorant isn't good for super active days/people and you do need to exfoliate sometimes if you put too much on as it doesn't wash off easily. Partner has decided to go back to "regular" deodorant and my rating is lower after using it for a while. The search for the perfect deodorant continues...
