Purelygreat Natural Deodorant Stick - Tea Tree - EWG Verified - Vegan, Cruelty Free - No Aluminium, No Parabens - Essential Oils

Previously, I used Speed Stick or some other big brand depending on price at the time my old deodorant would be close to finishing. However, my wife and her friend were talking about natural deodorants a few months back and her friend was saying something about her husband's friend being diagnosed with cancer under his armpits (I didn't realize that was possible). Thankfully, he beat the cancer, but mentioned something about not being able to use deodorant during treatment and couldn't wait to start using deodorant again. My wife's friend was like "Are you nuts?". This guy was apparently surprised and asked meekly, "So, I shouldn't use brand name deodorants?". Wife's friend answered with a "Duh!". So what does this story have to do with this product? Well, apparently, the big brands are loaded with cancer causing chemicals. My wife did some research and purchased another of Purelygreat's deodorants. However, I saw that process of stirring a stick in a jar before applying the deodorant confusing. So instead, she recommended I get this instead. According to her, this deodorant passed some skin care database or something. Frankly, I didn't understand what she meant, but not wanting to drag out the conversation about deodorant while not wanting to put harmful chemicals on my armpits, I bought one of these. It looks like the regular deodorant sticks I normally use. I'm good with that. First thing. I don't smell sweaty during the day. I've checked a few times when I felt sweaty especially during the plus 30 degree days we've been having. I don't smell like a guy in the middle of a 10k. Second thing. I like the smell of tea tree. It's been a while since I've used tea tree products. It's nice. Third thing. This deodorant doesn't go on dry. However, it's not the wet and sloppy one either. It's more in between. I've used both in the past. I don't have a preference. It's something to keep in mind if you like dry deodorant (where you can touch it and snap your fingers immediately) or wet deodorant (where you touch it, try to snap your fingers, and send deodorant gel flying in someone's face). Overall, I like this deodorant.

For the most part i love this deodorant. It smells great. It is made of clean, good ingredients. It is EWG certified for natural ingredients. It doesn't leave stains and smudges on clothing. It lasts all day. My ONLY complaint, is that it seems to be drying out before i'm done with it. I have already ordered my next stick, but i'm noticing that it's more difficult to put on. Over all i completely recommend this product.

Great natural deodorant. I find this is long lasting throughout the day, even with a very physically demanding job. It is pricey, but believe the quality products and results make it worth it.

Edit July 2025 This is my second time purchasing the deodorant and this time it did not work; it did not mask the odor at all! I used Purely Great under one arm, and another brand on the other. By mid day, the arm using Purely Great had body odor, the arm with the other brand had no odor. Very disappointed because the first time I purchased it a year or so ago it worked! 1st review: Hooray!!!! I am soooooo thrilled to finally find a non toxic, aluminum free deodorant! For the past 2 decades, I've tried pretty much 'all' the major healthy aluminum free and not anyone of them worked for me with stopping odor. Used this for a week or more now and have experienced ziltch odor!! If anything changes after my trip to the Caribbean where it's more humid and hot, I will update this post. I am THRILLED to finally have found one and I recommend it to others! Jun 20 Edit for continuation: I'm back from the Caribbean and it was 102-104 w heat index ...VERY humid and happy to report this deodorant worked!! Underarms did not sweat and zero odor! I found my brand :-)
