Native Deodorant - Natural Deodorant Made without Aluminum & Parabens - Coconut & Vanilla

Product Information

Eco-friendly and effective, Australian brand, A’kin’s, geranium and cedarwood deodorant not only control odours, but is kind and caring to skin. The combination of geranium, cedarwood and patchouli oils provide deodorising properties, as well as a fresh and fragrance, leaving underarms feeling and smelling fresh. After cleansing, spray directly on to the underarm area. Basically, you have to detox from your antiperspirant, which takes around 30 days. During this time, some people find that their armpits do smell, so immediately think that their natural deodorant isn’t working. This isn’t true, the odour is your body regulating itself again and learning to sweat naturally. 2 What types of natural deodorants are there? But if you do have problems with Native’s regular deodorant formulations, they do make sensitive skin varieties as well, which are free from both aluminum and baking soda. What I DON’T Like: With the exception of the Lavender & Rose, Candy Cane, and Unscented ones, most of Native’s deodorants contain “ fragrance” in the ingredients, which means there could be more hidden allergens that aren’t listed on the label. Again, we suggest trying the Unscented version for this.

Baking soda isn't for everyone though, as it may irritate sensitive skin and has a tendency to leave skin feeling dry. No need to worry because a natural, homemade deodorant can still be effective without baking soda. There are a number of alternative ingredients that can be added to deodorant in place of baking soda, including apple cider vinegar, cornstarch, or witch hazel. I’ve tried a LOT of natural and non-toxic deodorants. Many don’t work at all, while others work great for a while. My problem is that I usually have to switch up the brand of deodorant I use every month or two because, for whatever reason, it will stop working after several weeks. What is it? Native deodorant is a (mostly) non-toxic and gender-neutral deodorant that’s free of aluminum, sulfates, parabens, phthalates, and talc. Some natural deodorants can make my skin itchy, red, and irritated. Some people are sensitive to baking soda (it can throw off your pH—more on that here), while others may react to natural ingredients like charcoal or tea tree oil, which can be a bit harsh.Deodorant and antiperspirant are terms that are often used interchangeably but actually describe two unique products.

Everyone’s body is different, and body odor can be caused by a wide range of different factors. So far, Native has been one of the most effective non-toxic deodorant I’ve tried so far. Although a lot of consumers agree, Native doesn’t work for everyone. We encourage you to try it out and see for yourself. If you want even extra protection against smells and stinks, you might try the charcoal version. If that still doesn’t work to deal with your body odor, we’ve got some more tips for you below on how to successfully transition to a non-toxic deodorant.

There can be an initial adjustment period where it takes our bodies a little while toacclimatise to the change in underarm care. ‘If you’ve been a long-term user of antiperspirant, your body will take some time to purge the residue,’ explains Clive.In short, Native is the most effective “non-toxic” deodorant I’ve tried so far. (I’ll explain why the “non-toxic” part is in quotes in a minute.) I would consider my armpits “average”… I definitely sweat ( especially when I drink coffee and/or get stressed out, both of which happen frequently), but I don’t consider myself an “over-sweater.” Same goes for body odor: depending on my physical activity level, how hot it is outside, etc., I’ll start getting stinky after a day or so.

Having used natural products for years, I didn’t experience any irritation, even though I’ve reacted to baking soda in the past. In fact, I found all four to be incredibly soothing and hydrating.
