I knew I wanted to try this natural deodorant because it contains charcoal, one of the most popular ingredients in the beauty and wellness worlds right now. Because it draws out toxins, charcoal excels at eliminating odor. This natural deodorant blends odor-fighting charcoal and magnesium with essential oils and other plant-based ingredients. I only needed one swipe to protect my pits and prevent post-cycling stink.
Some people experience irritation when using natural deodorant with baking soda. While the ingredient doesn't bother me, I wanted to give a baking soda-free formula a shot. Enter this pick, which is made with absorbent arrowroot powder and odor-fighting magnesium instead of baking soda. Because of the uplifting citrus scent, I like to swipe this one on before morning workouts. Even without baking soda, it keeps my pits odor-free during and after an intense ride.
To say I'm obsessed with this natural deodorant would be an understatement. The aluminum-, paraben- and baking soda-free formula is packed with pH-balancing fruit enzymes that nix odor and probiotics that promote good bacteria. Not only does it smell delicious, it has a creamy formula that goes on smoothly with no white residue. In addition to curbing odor while I work out, it also makes my underarms feel softer.
The most intriguing thing about this natural deodorant is that it slows hair regrowth between waxes. With summer quickly approaching, that's a major selling point. Beyond that unique feature, it effectively neutralizes odor while I pedal away on my stationary bike. Plus, it's infused with aloe to soothe and soften.
