Eco friendly deodorant that actually works please?

I usually use Sure men spray but am looking for something a bit more woke 😂 and environmentally friendly... I've seen some solid bar things on Facebook but do any actually work as antiperspirant? Thanks

Mancave is one that works really well for men and smells good.

Thanks. I'm female but go for men's deodorants as they always seem more effective!

Oh sorry, well give mancave a try the reviews on the webpage included several women who use it too. The scent is more herbal. Not man perfume.

Earth Conscious deodorants are brilliant. The strongest one is the Peppermint/Spearmint.
It is so good that I don't need to wash clothes so often. I use the one in the tin but the cardboard tube is good as well.

I genuinely spent years trying to find a deodorant that worked and I’ve never looked back since finding this one:

Ooh thank you!

The metal stick or tin packaging... Do you recycle it in normal recycling? (Dim question sorry).

Do you mean a deodorant or anti-persistent OP? Pit Rok is an alum crystal that is antibacterial (and aluminium free) so kills germs that make sweat smell, so it's a deodorant but not anti perspirant.

Pit Rok . Use on hair free damp skin.
Works really well (and I'm a menopausal female so I need effective )

There was one I used to buy in Urban Outfitters (when DD dragged me in) . Schmitt and something . It was a solid stick, I liked the charcole one .....but didn't see it last time I was there Sad

I love Fit Pit

I use the woman’s one and have done 4 ages. The only other tip is always wash your pits with proper soap (not shower gel) as much better at removing BO

Bluewavescrashing · 11/04/2020 14:56

Yes I found soap works much better than shower gel for pits!

Antiperspirant and deodorant in one- is that a thing? Dry and fresh pits please Grin

Crystal deodorants (like pitrok) work brilliantly for me, no body odour whatsoever, but it's only a deodorant, it doesn't stop you sweating. I'm not sure that you will find a 'natural' product that will work as an antiperspirant.
