7 Unisex Natural Deodorants That Will Keep Your Underarms Fresh All Day Long
Fresh as a daisy
Want to keep your underarms dry and fresh all day long? Try our top picks for natural, gender-neutral deodorants.
Deodorant is to your body care routine as oxygen is to breathing: essential. To keep BO at bay, you have to do a lot more than just shower and call it a day—and covering up any unsavoury smells with your signature scent won’t do you any favours, either.
If you want to kick your stench for good, you have to tackle your BO at the source. That means eliminating odours before they can form by going after the bacteria that cause them. Fortunately, this new generation of natural deodorants has you covered on all fronts. Whether it’s eliminating their food source by absorbing excess moisture with cornflour and arrowroot, or balancing their numbers with pre- and probiotics, natural deodorants are it.
Not to mention, we’re sick of unnecessary gendering, so these natural deodorants are for the girls, the fellas and anyone in between! Shop the full roundup ahead:
