    What's a good, all-natural brand of deodorant? What do you use?

    Peace and love

    Have you tried Tom's? Thats the only one I know of.. My mom has used it bu I don't think she favored it. I've used Dove since I was in middle school though and thats what I like.
    Sorry I'm not much help. But I do know Tom's makes deoderant!

    I used to use Tom's of Maine, which is a bit more expensive than the rest, but is a pretty good natural deodorant. Burt's Bees also has a deodorant spray.

    A girl off here once reccomended I try plain tea tree oil as a deodarent, I tried it yesterday and god almighty it WORKS! Its hands down the best natural deodarent I've ever tried. And if you don't like the smell, give it a few minutes to absorb then apply a nicer smelly over the top. (I put my Natures Gate deodarent over the top which smells divine, but can't work to save itself. :p)

    None of the store brought natural deodrants work for me, infact I'm pretty sure they make me smell worse.

    However if I mix baking soda with water and slap it on, it does actually work! It can be a bit messy, I'm working on making something a little less messy.

    don't use deoderant. using is kindof addicive in a way. if you use it enough, your body will come to rely on it and sweat more. a few weeks after i stopped using it, i stopped sweating as much. i hardly sweat at all now.

    I think you're confusing anti-perspirants with deodorants. Anti-perspirants stop you from sweating, deodarants just mask the smell. I use Tom's of Maine deodorant. It doesn't effect how much I sweat (I've never been a sweaty person anyway), it just prevents b.o.

    And please, please, please, for the love of god, use something!! Don't be one of those narcissistic dimwits who thinks they naturally smell like roses 24/7. Here's a clue: you don't!! Most people hate the smell of b.o., so please have some curteousy.

    I really like the funk butter from oyinhandmade.com it comes in a little tin so you have to scoop it out but it works great. Also I use some cornstarch mixed with a little bit of powdered herbs in it, and that seems to work well during low stress times.

    i think i use alba brand tea tree.
    its travel sized, and only cost a buck.
    i really like it.

    i think that dr bronners soap can be used as deoderant too.

    Usually I use patchoulli oil (couple drops on the ol pits) and sometimes I use the aluminum free Tom's deodorant......patchoulli seems to work the best but sometimes I don't want to smell of it.
