milk + honey Cream Deodorant No. 20, Aluminum Free Deodorant with Coconut and Vanilla, Natural for Men and Women, for All Skin Types, 2.5 Oz

Background - I started becoming allergic to deodorant - my underarms would break out, got sticky and always felt like they had a film on them and it was just plain gross - and they smelled like awful BO no matter how much deodorant I put on. I purchased this in the beginning of October - it's now almost December and I have gone through most of the jar. I love this stuff. I tend to sweat, A LOT, And I live in Florida - which doesn't help due to humidity. I box almost nightly - and all I can say is WOW. I put this on in the morning - never using more than the pea sized amount (if you do it will get greasy) and it keeps my mostly dry and smelling good for the whole day and through my sweaty, sweaty, sweaty workout at night. I read some of the reviews that posted pictures stating that they had a reaction and their underarms got dark. two things - one - it looks as though the pictures are of individuals with darker skin - not sure if that has anything to do with it. I did experience one week in November where my underarms got angry red and started peeling. I couldn't tell if this was because I tried another cream deodorant (stank stop by Fatco - it's awful and made me stink) or if because my underarms were going through the detox that Milk & honey says you will go through. Regardless - I wore no deodorant for about 4 days - I just couldn't - it was too itchy and hurt. After 4 days I went back to the milk and honey and have not experienced another problem. I do think this was as a result of me adding another non-organic deodorant into the mix. I am going to buy another one of the coconut and vanilla and one of the other flavors as well. Before I started using the milk and Honey and I did a nightly underarm detox of betonite clay, apple cider vinegar and warm water - it's like a mask for your underarms - and it pulls all the toxins that other deodorants. like zinc and aluminum, leave behind. I did it 3 nights a week and my underarms stopped being sticky and gross. I will never use another non organic deodorant ever again.

Ever since trying this cream deodorant, I’ll never go back to any other kind! I’ve been hooked and using it for 2 years now. I’m obsessed with the smell, it’s so soft and sweet. I actually get compliments. The texture is nice. However, I don’t like the feeling on my hands after application, you always have to wash them. Provides all day coverage!!! Without even having to use much. I noticed after a year of using it I actually sweat/smelt less (to the point I don’t even have to wear deodorant as often). Possibly bc it’s non aluminum, baking soda based (another positive). And it lasts forever! The only thing is the formula has definitely changed. I could tell from the texture as well as ingredient list. It also broke out my armpits at first and after I shave :( only negative - but I still use it.

I loved this product at first. I've been finding it challenging to find a natural deodorant that controls sweat and odor. Milk and honey did a great job at both. The smell is very soft and feminine. However, I developed a dark rash in both armpits a month after use. I ended up buying another container before the rash got terrible. I was hoping it would go away. I will be returning this product. I wonder if it's from the baking soda they put in it, based on other reviews saying they also got a rash, and why they believed they got this reaction. I'm now looking for baking soda-free deodorant.

Love the smell of this...like coconut and vanilla. On warmer days the smell fades later in the day but no negative odor is present so it's obviously still working, even overnight. Every once in a while it does mildly irritate my skin (which is typically very sensitive), and I do mean exceptionally mildly, as in 2-3 bumps (and that's the only reason I didn't give it 5 stars) but what do you expect in an area you shave daily? By far the conventional stick deodorants, and even the non-aluminum alternative stick deodorants irritated and discolored my skin more than this cream deodorant, and didn't work nearly as well. I was originally wary, given the reviews about the consistency but I have had no problems. On days over 60 or 70 degrees, it's a smooth cream ready to smooth on. On colder days, I take a pea size amount and rub it between my fingers to emulsify it, and it spreads easily, as normal, with no problems and it does not take a lot of product to be effective. You can tell there are oils in it because it leaves your fingers smooth after you wash your hands after application, but it is not greasy and hasn't stained any of my clothing. In fact, I appreciate the oils because it means it's also hydrating my skin. Great stuff.

I have been using this deodorant for a month and I am so very much in love with it. It smells lovely but not overpowering or overwhelming. Never get stinky or smelly even when I forgot to put it on one day and I work in a hot kitchen and I still smelled clean all day. It has also been helpful at preventing razor burn and ingrown in my underarms cuz it does have a slight exfoliating effect and as someone that always has razor burn and ingrown cuz my skin in my armpits is highly sensitive it was amazing to go a month without it at all. A small tiny amount goes a long way and also make sure u rub it in a bit so it’s worked into ur skin. Still have 2/3 of the jar left and it’s a must have for me now and I’ve tried many many all natural and cream deodorants but this beats them all
