Success! I have found a deodorant that I can actually recommend and continue using! Thanks to the folks at Primal Pastures, I was able to try a tube of their 2 oz deodorant (I chose Tea Tree).

What I liked about this product was that it actually kept my underarms smelling fresh ALL DAY….I’m not kidding…even after a workout, I didn’t smell like sweat. I even let my sister do the “sniff test” and she was amazed, since we both tend to get pretty stinky after workouts.

Since this is a deodorant, it is NOT an antiperspirant. You will expect to have some dampness under your arms, but that’s actually a GOOD thing! (Sweat is our body’s way of naturally detoxing). You won’t find any harsh chemicals in this product, which is exactly what I have been looking for. Yes, this product is free of aluminum, paragons and artificial ingredients. It is almost entirely organic and contains some Certified Fair Trade ingredients.

The product is a little gritty feeling, so don’t swipe it on immediately following shaving, in case you’re prone to sensitivity. I found that lightly dabbing it on or applying it prevented the product from showing on my  skin. Since it’s relatively soft, it’s best to keep it out of warm temperatures and in a cool dry place. Each tube should last around 6 months once you start using. At $12.00 a tube, it’s a great deal in my opinion. Check out their webpage under “Farm Shop” and then “Primally Pure” to find their whole line of toiletry items.

I plan on trying “Lavender” scent next time! (Scented with essential oils, no artificial fragrances). 

Have you tried their deodorant or any of of their other products? I’d be curious as to what your thoughts are! :)
