Salt of the Earth Natural Deodorant Balm - Lavender & Vanilla - 60g

This is the best deodorant balm. No nasty ingredients. Not too drying. Eliminates odours. No white marks. Very easy to use. Smells like nothing as well, i imagine if one used it on smelly armpits then there would be a smell, but that's not how deodorant is supposed to be used, you're supposed to use it on clean armpits. My 5-star review is based on the unscented one only. The lavender and vanilla one is very strong-smelling, it doesn't smell bad imo, but it's so strong i only use it for emergencies, it works on not-washed kinda smelly armpits. I never just use a garden pea-sized amount either, i always use 1 to 2 plump marrowfat pea-sized amounts. Sometimes it's grainy, sometimes it's smooth, when it's grainy i sit the jar in hot water for 20mins or so, make sure the water stays hot. I've used loads of different deodorants before and this one is the best, i don't understand the bad reviews. I mean i don't know what people expect, this is not an anti-perspirant it's a deodorant, it's not meant to stop sweat, it's meant to stop smell, and it does work that way, we're adults and always need to use more than a garden pea-sized amount as well. One thing that's unique about this deodorant is it doesn't make your armpits sticky after you work-out wearing it, most others do. But, keep in mind i am using the unscented one, so it has no essential oils or anything like that in there, so maybe because of that it works better, breaks apart less whilst wearing it, and doesn't get sticky. Don't let the bad reviews sway you, give it a try, just remember to use more than a garden pea-sized amount, use on clean armpits(no body odour smell present), and try the fragrance-free one first, if it's grainy sit it in a bowl with kettle-hot water just under the lid, unscrew the lid and gently sit it on top, for 20mins, replace the water if it gets even warm, has to stay hot, fixes it right away, smooth like butter, lol.

My son tells me wherever I am there’s a stink of sweat, especially if we’re away on a walking or cycling trip. Fortunately this product means that in more socially involved situations the stink just doesn’t happen. I can comfortably get through a day of hard work and even in summer I might be able to wear the same T shirt two days on the trot. It’s of a consistency that’s easy to apply even in the low temperatures in my house. I’ve had similar products that needed a chisel to get out of the jar on a chilly morning It lasts a decent length of time. And there’s no plastic involved. A very good product!

Pleasant scent and doesn't burn like many creams. Still smelt good before shower the next day. Only complaint is the amount is small and I don't think will last more than 2 or 3 months. But will have to see

The deodorant worked well and I would love it, except for two things: First, the staying power is not very impressive. I found that it only lasted from morning til evening and not overnight/into a late evening. I started reapplying in the evening and found that worked to cover all hours, but the problem is that then the product is getting used up twice as fast and becomes rather expensive. Secondly, the lavender scent did not at all work for me. It smells quite musty and when it activates with sweating, it becomes much stronger, almost to the point where I wondered whether sweat or lavender would be the better scent. I would have tried other scents from the same company happily if it wasn't for the first problem. As it is, I'll try someone else.

I've been using this product since 2021, and I would not change even the scent. It works well, it is of course natural, and the scent is not so strong. It lasts for a long time. It does change consistency in hot weather, but that does not affect the quality. Once it came with some lumps, but still, it did the job. It lasts long enough for the price. It is good for health and for the planet. I'd never change it for anything else.

This is brilliant. 100% natural ingredients & very effective.

lasts a long time, completely deodorises

The deodorant arrived in the Amazon cardboard packaging and nothing else. At first glance I was happy to see the lack of plastic; but upon taking the deodorant out, I noticed that the lid of the deodorant wasn't properly screwed on and therefore not hygienic. I appreciate that this product uses as little packaging as possible, but it was to the point where it was just not hygienic as I've said. But I didn't want to return it for it to just be thrown out, so I thought I'd give it a go. I bought this zero waste deodorant thinking it would at least smell nice and somewhat vanilla-y, as it is stated as being lavender and vanilla scented, but It didn't. It smells like an odd, jarring blend of essential oils. When applying the paste, it is very gritty and crumbles to the ground. I'm not sure if it is supposed to be this texture? As for deodorising, it does absolutely nothing. Halfway into the day, my t-shirt smells like sweat. I even wonder if the deodorant 'goes off' under my arms, making me smell worse than I would compared to if I had not used any deodorant at all? So, over all, I would not recommend this deodorant at all.

Product is nice but too much costly.

Déodorant facile à mettre et efficace

He tardado bastante en dar mi opinión porque quería valorarlo durante un tiempo. Empecé a utilizarlo porque, tras un tratamiento de antibióticos, empecé a tener hongos en las axilas. Debido a esto, tuve que dejar de utilizar desodorantes tradicionales ya que, en cuanto lo hacía, volvían los hongos. Me aconsejaron probar un desodorante "seco" y di con este. La verdad es que no puedo estar más contenta. Cuando lo utilizo estoy tranquila porque camufla perfectamente el olor a sudor y, además, me ha ayudado con el problema de hongos que tenía ya que no me afecta como los tradicionales. Así que genial.

Funziona benissimo, profumo delicato e duraturo! È l'unico deodorante in grado di aiutarmi a gestire la sudorazione e l'odore che ne consegue!

I will buy it again.
