Review (5/5): Eco-friendly, Plays Well With My Skin
On the typical day, this deodorant works great for me. Natural deodorants tend to irritate my armpits, but this one is always soothing. I would suggest warming it up before applying(my favorite method is to set it by a burning candle for a few minutes) to make it sink into your skin more, but the deo is mostly clear if you apply it without warming it up first. Since this is an aluminium-free deodorant, it will not prevent sweat, but it still blocks odor. When I work out, there will be some sweat, but there has never been any odor, regardless if the deodorant has just been applied or if it has been on me for a few hours. The odor prevention is decent when it comes to the nervous sweating I occasionally experience. I reapply when I have things to do at night.
The packaging is perfect for me. I don’t need to dip my fingers in a jar like you have to do with many natural deodorants, the design is adorable, and it’s biodegradable. The push-up design allows you to use every bit of product. I find the 3 oz. size lasts 6+ months.
Other natural deodorants I have used in the past include Tom’s of Maine lavender stick deodorant and the Captain Blankenship cream, but both of them had ingredients my skin found irritating(admittedly, this could be allergies) and did not last as long on me as the Meow Meow Tweet one does. This deodorant eased my transition from traditional aluminum deodorant to natural deodorant, and I have bought a few of these since. The only alteration I would make it to make it last 24 hours.
