Natural Deodorants- do they pass the sniff test?

3 February, 2024 - 01:55pm by - BR-Queenie | 150 Comments

 

Let's talk about something we all deal with – the quest for the perfect deodorant. The supermarket shelves are lined with a mind-boggling array of options, all promising to keep us fresh and dry, but have you ever considered making the switch to natural deodorants?                                          

When we’re talking about the scent game,  natural deodorants don't just mask odours; they tackle them head-on with the power of nature. Think lavender, tea tree, or eucalyptus oils – the kind of aromas that make you feel like you're strolling through a serene garden, waving goodbye to those overpowering artificial fragrances that make you cringe every time you catch a whiff of your underarms.

One of the most fantastic perks? The reduction of skin irritation. You're not alone if you've ever experienced redness, itching, or rashes after using a traditional deodorant. Natural deodorants are designed with sensitive skin in mind. The absence of harsh chemicals means you can bid farewell to those uncomfortable reactions and embrace a gentler, more soothing deodorizing experience. 

For environmentally-conscious souls out there, natural deodorants are a dream come true. Many brands package their products in eco-friendly materials, cutting down on plastic waste and contributing to a healthier planet. So, every time you swipe on that natural deodorant, you're not just doing yourself a favour – you're giving Mother Earth a high-five too.

Let's not forget the crucial point – the fight against body odour. Natural deodorants are up to the challenge, armed with antibacterial properties that combat the bacteria responsible for those less-than-pleasant smells. But we know what you might be thinking – do natural deodorants stand the test of a sweaty workout or a hectic day at the office? Absolutely! Many natural deodorants are formulated to keep you feeling fresh and dry, even in the face of adversity. They might not have the industrial-strength chemicals of their conventional counterparts, but they hold their own in the battle against sweat.

 But of course, we’re not going to take the brand’s word for it for any of this, we’re going to put it to the test. A’Kin is a brand that has been at the forefront of natural beauty product development for over 35 years. They’ve just released a range of roll-on deodorants in three mouthwatering fragrances:

-Lime and Orange

-Rose and Mint

- Geranium and Wood

All variants provide 24-hour protection against odour, leave no white marks on your clothes, are 100% vegan, and use 100% recycled packaging. 

So if this sounds like you and you’d like to be part of this trial team, comment below letting us know your thoughts on natural deodorants and what fragrance you’d like to choose if you’re selected.

I have had a love/hate relationship with natural deodorants so far. I love that there are less harmful ingredients however I still have yet to find one that works for me (some I've tried in the past make me feel smelly). Hopefully I can try this one out and find a new favourite! If successful I'd love to try the lime and orange scent.

These sound lovely, would be nice to trial a natural deodorant.

5th February, 2024

Would love to try something new!!

I am just starting my natural deodorant journey and would love to try the lime and orange one out!

5th February, 2024

This sounds like a whole lotta goodness! Geranium & wood! Natural! This sounds amazing. Would love to try please

I swear by my deodorant for sensitive skin, but would be keen to try a natural deodorant. I’m not one for floral aromas, so would love to trial the lime and orange.

I've tried a few different natural deodorants but I've always felt that I was a bit smelly and so reverted back each time to non-natural. I'd love to find one that does pass the sniff test. I live an active lifestyle and live in the Hawkes Bay where it's often warm so I could definitely give this deodorant a good run for its money! Would love to try any scent but rose and mint sounds nice

I would love to be a part of this team! I have a skin condition that only allows me to use natural deodorant and im always looking for new products!

5th February, 2024

I'm always keen on more natural brands as they are better on my skin and for the environment but I haven't been brave enough to try a natural deodorant yet so would be keen to give one of these a whirl. Lime and orange sounds like my thing as I love fruity scents.

5th February, 2024

Ooooooh I’d love to try lime and orange! I’ve always wanted to get in to natural deodorants but have heard they don’t do as good a job as their )full of nasties) counterpart.getting to be a part of the trial team for this would be awesome!

5th February, 2024

Ooo - this sounds like a GREAT trial team to be chosen for. I've never had much luck with natural deodorants before - they haven't stood the all-day-at-the-office test, so I'd enjoy putting these through their paces! The Geranium & Wood one sounds delicious.

5th February, 2024

Geranium and wood! Is that even a thing? Forest feels going on here! And it’s good for me, the planet and 24 hour coverage, you had me at wood sign me to this trial !

5th February, 2024

I've tried a few natural deodorants with varying levels of success and often very expensive! All of the scents sound nice.

5th February, 2024

Lime and Orange would be my pick. All natural is like the hype and why not, with too many harmful chemicals, we can benefit from going back to how it used to be.

5th February, 2024

Would love to give a natural deodorant a go. I hate the fact that typical deodorants are packed full of nasties and would love the chance to try something kinda to my body and the environment. Geranium and Wood sounds gorgeous.
