The better ones, Soapwalla (my previous favorite)
Over the past year and a half, I've been searching for a non-commercial deodorant that would work for me. Due to formulation changes over the past 10-15 years, it has gotten to a point where I can only use around 3 different commercial deodorants that do not cause chemical burns to my pits with long use. I've used many other popular and not so popular alternatives and haven't found that &#34;perfect&#34; product yet.  The better ones, Soapwalla (my previous favorite), Piper Kai, and Primal Pit Paste, all cause serious irritation after 2-4 weeks and I discovered that baking soda and some essential oils cause serious irritation and eventually makes my pits raw which causes my skin to peel away. I've recently retried some Soapwalla I had for a pinch and it actually caused my pits to severely break out only one day (which surprised me). Evidently, my sensitivity to baking soda has increased over the past year.<br />I've used this Fat and The Moon deodorant for 2.5 weeks now and am very pleased with it. It only causes some minor bumps under my pits which is really good for me since these aren't getting worse. This is a deodorant, not an antiperspirant, so I do sweat a lot. However, I've noticed that even after exercise I'm not very stinky. With most of the other deodorants I've used, workout stank is always a problem. A couple have actually intensified the stank by adding their own. Not so here.<br />The only cons I have with this product so far are that I do notice it can stain some shirts with oil discoloration, but so far have been treatable. (I've used products that have stained shirts MUCH worse to where it wasn't treatable.) The other con I have about this is the smell. I'm a guy and I'm okay with this scent, but sometimes it's a bit too &#34;earthy&#34; smelling for me. I might even go for an unscented version of this if that is possible.<br /><br />But even with the cons, I do like this product and I'm going to reorder this deodorant in the full 2 ounce size.
