My Favorite Natural Deodorants

After a year and a half of testing 10+ natural deodorants, here are my favorites!

I’ve switched soooo many of my family + friends to a natural deodorant - it’s time for me to switch you too.

Traditional deodorants work by using a combination of aluminums, fragrances and other toxins to create a barrier on your skin to trap sweat + odors. In other words, it clogs your pores with a bunch of nastiness. If you’ll be switching from a traditional deodorant, I recommend starting with THIS POST.

Below are my top favorite natural deodorants. I’ve awarded them each something a little different in hopes that I can share something that works for everyone. If you have any questions or want additional recommendations, don’t hesitate to let me know in the comments or shoot me a DM!

Best for working out

LAVANILA The Healthy Deodorant, Sport Luxe
Price: $14
Where to buy: Amazon, Sephora, Ulta or online

This is not only the deodorant I apply before working out, it’s also the one that I find myself reaching for the most. It keeps me feeling fresh and not super sweaty, (even when I’m hitting it hard in a spin class!), and smells like a fresh load of laundry.

Best for sensitive skin

Honestly pHresh, Sugar Mint
Price: $10
Where to buy: Whole Foods, Amazon or online

I’ve heard from a lot of people they get discouraged from using a natural deodorant because of the reactions they have - even after using a detox. If you’re still have a bad reaction and it’s been a while, you might have an intolerance to baking soda - an ingredient used in most natural deodorants.

Honestly pHresh Naturals is super cool because it’s baking soda free, using a combo of prebiotics, minerals and other organic ingredients (like shea butter + coconut oil) to create a long-lasting option for even those with sensitive skin. The Sugar Mint scent is my personal favorite, but they also offer a Shea Butter variety that’s essentially unscented.

Best for your first time

Native Deodorant, Lavender & Rose
Price: $12
Where to buy: Target, Walgreens, Walmart or Amazon

I’m a big fan of the Native brand in general, especially because their products are so accessible. You can find Native products on the shelves at Target, Walgreens and Walmart stores nationwide, making it a great option for those who are trying a natural deodorant for the first time.

They offer a ton of scents, even seasonal scents online, but my go-to is Lavender & Rose. Native is even the brand I keep my guest bathroom stocked with, in hopes of convincing everyone who visits me to make the switch as well!

Best for tropical vibes

Kopari Coconut Oil Deodorant
Price: $14
Where to buy: Amazon, Sephora, Ulta or online

I personally love anything coconut, so I love Kopari’s deodorant. I will admit that it’s not the longest lasting deodorant on this list (I have to reapply a few times during the day) BUT it’s super soothing, hydrating and not sticky. Plus, it smells amazing.
