WHICH NATURAL DEODORANTS ARE THE BEST?
Those looking to cut the amount of synthetic ingredients in their skincare may feel inclined to opt for a natural deodorant over a conventional deodorant or antiperspirant, but as with most skin and body products, it can take a while to find one that works best for your skin type.
These four get our tick of approval.
1 Splurge Salt & Stone Extra Strength Natural Deodorant Santal & Vetiver, $39.95
This aesthetically pleasing deodorant has gained a cult following online, thanks not only to its effectiveness, but the fact that its fragrance very closely mimics the much loved Le Labo perfume, Santal 33. It contains probiotics to help neutralise odour, along with seaweed extracts and hyaluronic acid to keep your skin barrier nourished.
2 Save A’kin Natural Deodorant Roll On Geranium & Wood, $14.99
This natural deodorant is a great one for newbies to natural deodorant as it promises 24-hour clinical protection against odour. It’s also available as a spray and in a variety of pleasant scents, all of which are 100 per cent vegan and not tested on animals.
3 New Release Noosa Basics Roll On Deodorant Sandalwood, $19
If you’re not into roll-on, you can also find Noosa Basics deodorants in stick form, spray and as a paste in a compact, travel-friendly tin. The formulas are all handcrafted on Australia’s Sunshine Coast from organic ingredients and are certified vegan, cruelty-free and palm oil free.
4 Old Favourite Ever Kind Organic Deodorant Ultra Stick, $23.99
Made by a small business in Aotearoa, this deodorant won the award for Best Odour Care in the Canadian Clean Beauty Awards in 2020. Each stick should last you for around three months and the packaging is home compostable.
