Earth Mama Bright Citrus Deodorant | Safe for Sensitive Skin, Pregnancy and Breastfeeding, Contains Organic Grapefruit and Calendula, No Baking Soda or Aluminum, 2.65-Ounce (2-Pack)

Trying to get away from aluminum deodorants & toxins, but need something STRONG to cover BO. This is the best one I’ve tried. Can seem a little chalky when applying, and sometimes it works better to dab, then rub back & forth. Don’t turn it up very far, or the deodorant will break apart & fall off the stick. The deodorant has a nice lavender smell & seems to work well as a daily deodorant. Workout and hot, sweaty summer time may require a touch up, but so far, so good.

Scent: The smell is pleasant—light and not overpowering. It doesn’t cause irritation or discomfort.Performance: Unfortunately, the scent doesn’t last long throughout the day.Texture: When applied, it smears and leaves a white residue across the skin.Packaging: The center of the stick gets messy and softens too quickly, making it hard to apply cleanly.

I’ve used this brand ever since I had my second kiddo when I discovered a more non toxic lifestyle. It’s a nice light lavender scent. Lasts me months. The only issue is that have to warm it up on your skin a little for it to work well. something you have to get used to with a natural deodorant. I don't honestly sweat much so it's effective for me.

well i wanted to love this. you have to put it on more like a paste, because it does crumble and does not spread easily. even taking off the cap creates a bit of mess. it does not last long at all, I smell myself to a fairly minor degree throughout the day, not overwhelmingly stinky but it does breathe through. it also clumps, where I can roll small balls of booger-like consistency off into my hands and onto my clothes. so I'd like to give this product the benefit of the doubt because I feel all of these properties are due to the natural and holistic ingredients, which is what I was wanting. but I don't think I will order this again.

Tried this as a natural alternative to my regular dove deodorant while I’m pregnant. The scents are mild and smell nice when you’re smelling the stick; however, the texture is awful—incredibly thick and tacky. I put on a sweater and the wool stuck to my underarm. It was very hard to get off in the shower and had to wash several times with a loofa—washcloth was just moving it around. I haven’t had to scrub a localized part of my body that hard since I went through a temporary tattoo phase as a kid.The scented options did nothing for me either. I smelled within 20 minutes. Granted, I was not expecting this to work as well as my coveted toxic deodorant, but I absolutely did not think I would’ve had an experience worth writing a review about.Don’t waste your time.

It’s pricey and very ineffective. The scent isn’t strong and the consistency is very thick, almost gummy and sticky. Just very disappointed considering what I paid for it. Maybe the effectiveness will be better in the winter months

*Editing to add that the seller quickly reached out to issue a refund for the damaged item.*I received an Earth Mama sample package as a pregnancy gift. It’s been difficult to find natural deodorants that work and this one seems to be the best option for me for now. The lavender scent is especially wonderful. Deducted starts because for the price point, these shouldn’t arrive damaged. One of the lids arrived cracked. The two sticks were paired together in a thin plastic seal, much like you would find on a store shelf. No other cushion or protection. I’m also disappointed by how difficult it is to twist the bottom to make the deodorant rise for use. My husband needed to help me do this. I shouldn’t need my husband to do this.

This is a great and affordable non toxic option. The smell is subtle. It doesn’t cause any irritation. Helped with postpartum odors, especially with not being able to shower daily.
