I love the fresh, clean scent of the mandarins and vanilla and all the gorgeous fruits and flowers! Sukin's Natural Deodorant has a delicious citrus fragrance, and combined with the lavender and vanilla, the smell is the thing I have loved most about this deodorant.
I wasn't too worried about keeping sweat under control, because in most circumstances, unless I've been running, I'm not very sweaty. But I can say this really did help keep me fresh and smelling nice, it is much nicer than the unnatural spray deodorants that make you cough and splutter (you know the ones). This deodorant was really inviting for me, and I loved breathing in it's fragrance.
There is only one thing that I don't like about this spray, and that is that once you've gone down past halfway, it won't spray anymore, or is very difficult to get it to spray. My bottle of this is still sitting on my drawers now, unused for that reason. It is the most delicious smelling deodorant I have ever set my nose on, but it just refuses to spray out.
If only the bottle was designed better, it would be perfect! I guess I'll just have to accept it's annoyance and rub the liquid with my fingertips if I want to use it... Not being able to use the bottle up properly does put me off it sadly.
I recommend this to anyone who loves to smell delicious and fresh without harsh chemicals, and anyone worrying about their sensitive skin.
I love Sukin products, as they really live up to their motto of "Skin care that doesn't cost the earth." They are reasonably priced and use natural ingredients without preservatives, parabens, etc.
I have used a lot of aluminium-free deodorants, with varying results. The main issue is that they tend to eliminate odour, but don't work as an anti-perspirant because it is the aluminium in standard deodorants which block sweat pores. I have thus accepted that if I want to go aluminium-free, I will still be sweating on hot days.
The first thing I love about the Sukin deodorant is its light citrus/floral smell. For ladies who don't like overwhelming scents, this is a really good choice. It is delicate yet feminine.
I keep the spray bottle in the glove box of my car to freshen up throughout the day. This is because I found that the spray bottle can sometimes be hard to make sure I have applied enough (and applied it accurately to my underarms as opposed to spraying it in my face!) to last me for a full day. However, when I have used it in the morning it has certainly lasted for a full day of freshness. There is nothing worse than becoming self-conscious about B.O.!
Definitely worth a try if you are hunting for a good natural deodorant.
Tips: Make sure you aim the spray bottle accurately!
