Top 10 Reasons to Switch to Natural Deodorant
Thinking about making the switch to natural deodorant? You’re not alone. More and more people across Aotearoa are choosing gentler, cleaner options for their skin — and for good reason.
If you’ve been curious, confused, or caught in the “I’ve tried natural deodorant before and it didn’t work” cycle, this is for you.
Here are the 10 reasons our Probiotic Deodorant is worth the leap, and why your pits will thank you.
1. Sweat doesn’t smell — bacteria do
Sweat itself is odourless. That “BO” we all know happens when bacteria on your skin break down sweat.
Our probiotic deodorant tackles odour at the source by balancing your underarm microbiome. Instead of blocking sweat (which your body needs to do), it simply keeps the smell away. Easy.
2. Powered by probiotics that actually work
The hero ingredient in our formula is Bacillus ferment — a topical probiotic that promotes “good” bacteria and reduces the odour-causing kind.
Think of it as restoring harmony to your underarm ecosystem. The result? Long-lasting freshness that feels natural, never artificial.
3. Gentle, skin-loving ingredients
Coconut oil, bentonite clay, magnesium hydroxide, beeswax, and kawakawa-infused oil… your pits have never had it so good.
These ingredients care for your skin barrier, soothe inflammation, reduce redness and help keep the area soft and healthy — even for sensitive or freshly shaved underarms.
4. Zero aluminium. Zero alcohol. Zero drama.
No stinging, no irritation, no clogged pores.
Instead of plugging sweat glands (what antiperspirants do), we let your body do what it’s meant to do — sweat naturally — but without the smell.
5. Long-lasting protection (3–6 Months Per Tube!)
Natural deodorant doesn’t have to mean reapplying every hour.
Our tubes last much longer than most — you only need a few gentle swipes. One tube can see you through an entire season.
6. Made in small batches in Waikawa Bay
Every single tube is hand-poured, and quality-checked by our team in Waikawa Bay, Aotearoa.
There’s something special about knowing your deodorant was crafted with care — not mass-produced by machines thousands of kilometres away.
7. Recyclable packaging that goes easy on Papatūānuku
Choose from our recyclable cardboard push-up tube or our sturdy glass roll-on.
Both are low-waste options designed to reduce plastic and support a healthier planet — one pit at a time.
8. Scents you’ll actually want to wear
From light, fresh botanicals to earthy notes and completely unscented versions, there’s an option for every pit personality.
If you prefer a little extra support, our Extra Strength range has your back (and your underarms).
9. Clean beauty backed by real results
We’ve been making natural deodorants for over 15 years — long before they were trendy.
Over that time, thousands of customers have switched from mainstream antiperspirants or “failed” natural deodorants and found that ours actually works.
10. Better for you, better for the planet
Natural ingredients, no harsh chemicals, handcrafted with integrity, and packaged to protect our environment.
If you’re looking for a small everyday swap that genuinely makes a difference — this is it.
Thinking of switching? Now’s the perfect time.
Fresh pits, balanced skin, and a natural deodorant that truly works — say hello to your new everyday staple. 🌿
