Botanica™ Floral Deodorant Stick

easy to use and beautiful but not strong fragrance. lasts all day at my moderately active job. I honestly didn't think it would be this easy to find a plastic free deodorant, but ethique checks all my boxes!

glides smoothly

My partner and I have made the switch to ethique for pretty much any product that they have available, but the deodorant is one of our favorites! We have trialed a few other natural deodorants, but we feel that none hold up quite like ethique’s- in fact my partner (who is a bit pickier re: deodorant than I am) says it’s the ONLY natural deodorant he’s confident in to get him through the day with minimal re-application.

One side note- this doesn’t bother us much, but it may bother others; the formula is a bit “powder-y” and if you get this one or the green one it does leave a ~tiny~ bit of a tinted cast on your pits, especially if you apply it generously. But other deodorants with worse ingredients can do that as well, so we think the tradeoff for more natural ingredients and better packaging is well worth it.

Every other deodorant stick that I’ve tried has either not worked or irritated my skin, but not this one! It smells great, goes on smooth, and lasts all day. It does sometimes leave a purple residue on clothes (it comes out in the wash without issue), so I will sometimes use the unscented version of this deodorant when being cognizant of that. Otherwise, I’m in love!

Such a lovely scent, and very effective. Many natural deodorants need reapplying during the day, but this lasts all day even when really active.
