 Extra Strength Deodorant

Most Helpful Positive Review

I have been waiting to write this review!!

I have tried numerous natural deodorants. Only one worked on keeping me from smelling bad by the end of the day but it still lacked a lot in other ways. I figured this one would be the same, that I'd have yet another deodorant in the graveyard with the rest. I added this to my cart and left it for a... week. I'm soooo glad I finally hit the button!! Wow. I wanted to give this some time before I wrote a review because I had numerous benchmarks it had to pass. Also, I purchased this and started using it in August, in Texas. 1) first day I put it on, I wore a sleeveless silky black shirt. Perfect! No white marks on my shirt at all! 2) all of the natural deodorants stained my clothing. This one has not stained one single shirt! 3) I had to test this in rigorous situations. First was over a weekend where I was remodeling a bathroom. Couldn't use a fan because it would blow stuff on things that would ruin it so I sweat a LOT. Plus, this will sound gross, but I showered Friday morning before work. Well Saturday morning I wasn't about to shower when I was just going to be doing physical labor. So this deodorant got double-duty. By the end of that weekend, I did not smell at all! 4) I was concerned about the skin discoloration that comes from using baking soda deodorant. It hasn't been an issue until earlier this year and I had that famous reaction that so many get using my then-favorite. I've given this Milk + Honey 5 weeks and my underarms are normal! 5) if I haven't convinced you by now, then this is the kicker. Did I mention I live in Texas? I just got home from working in the concession stand at a high school football game. I think even the devil stays home on Friday nights in Texas, and I'm pretty sure he's not locked inside a stand with grills and fryers all around! It was so hot that one of the spectators, as she approached the stand, was taken aback by the heat that hit her and she came from the west-facing bleachers. Yea. It was that hot. I think I sweat more tonight than I have all year. Guess what? I didn't have drenched armpits like you might imagine and when I went to shower, I checked and guess what? NO smell! You seriously must try this. I know everyone's body is different, but this one is definitely worth a shot.
