Moisturizing, natural and effective deodorant!

I finally forked over the $18 for this deodorant after my drug store, aluminum-filled deodorant started giving me a painful, itchy rash under my arms! I knew aluminum was a no-no ingredient but I have friends that have tried aluminum-free deodorants and then had to switch back because the natural, aluminum-free ones did not effectively combat their odor. I heard a few really positive things abou...read moret this deodorant and I was desperate for a solution so I picked this up in the Pure Vanilla scent from Sephora. All of the great things that people say about this deodorant are true! First of all, when you apply this, it feels like you are putting a whipped lotion under your arms. It is so moisturizing and yet it absorbs into your skin quickly so you can still get dressed right away. The vanilla scent is not too overpowering, which is a definite plus in a deodorant for me. After using this just a few days, the rash under my arms (which was quite aggressive!) had cleared up. Amazing! I can vouch that this deodorant really does keep odor at bay. I typically get some body odor by the end of the day, especially if I am wearing a fabric that does not breathe easily. With this, I don't have to worry about smelling at all. I would recommend this to anyone who wants a natural deodorant and has been frustrated with natural, but ineffective deodorants in the past. The Lavanila brands itself is great. They use all natural ingredients, don't test on animals and have several vegan products. I will definitely be repurchasing this when my current one runs out. The price is steep for a deodorant but this amount lasts so long. You also have to figure that your money is going toward a product without all the rubbish traditional deodorants are filled with.

I have the passion fruit, a fresh fruity floral scent. It's a deodorant so I still sweat a little. I feel good using a natural, cruelty free and vegan product but it's not effective at keeping me dry like antiperspirant. Undecided about this product.

A MUST-HAVE!

After trying several natural deodorants without any results, this is the solution! My first try with this Lavanila deodorant was on a 3 hour hike (I used the Pure Vanilla) and it pulled through way better than anything I used. I haven't had any BO problems since-even when I work out! And I love the way it washes right off. The Pure Vanilla smells just like sweet powdery vanilla and the texture of ...read moreit is like a powder solid. I've been dealing with hormonal imbalance and as a result my BO has been problematic. Not just that but for a while I've been wanting to go the natural route due to most anti-perspirants causing annoying build-up and not standing up to the sweat/odor. My go-to prior was Secret's Oprah Stress deodorant but I'm super grateful for Lavanila and their deodorant line.
