Natural Deodorant? Thoughts?

I'm thinking of trying the WILD refills as love what the company stands for about not using plastics and just ordering the refills.

But super nervous about the natural deodorant side of things and this '30 day detox' your body has to do...

Anyone tried this or similar?

I use stuff from Holland and Barrett, the Dr Organics range. That works as a good deodorant, no BO.
On the plastics side I think you can get a solid crystal deodorant, Pitrock style, that is just a big crystal and no holder. You'd just have to wrap it in a flannel to travel with.

How did you find the whole body detox part???

Not really noticeable. Not sure it's really that much of a thing. Washing with hard soap does make a difference.

I've been using it for a year. Yes, I had about a two week period where I would be slightly whiffy when I got up in the morning but a quick shower sorted it. Never any issues during the day.

I've recently switched to natural deodorant. I didn't experience the detox thing, it's been much easier than I expected. Works really well as a deodorant, and even though it's not an antiperspirant I haven't had any issues really.

The first one I tried was from my little eco shop and was really good but then I was drawn in by the colourful case and different scents of Wild Grin I definitely wouldn't go back to normal deodorant now.

I definitely fancy buying these, once I've run out of my current brand. I use Bionsen at the moment - which is just deodorant, not antiperspirant.

I started using Wild about a month ago. I didn't experience the 'detox' either Smile it works just as well as my old spray deodorant for me

Ive taken the plunge and ordered.

Interested to see what it will be like!

Will keep you guys posted! Thank you
