Today, we’re more conscious of the importance of using self-care products that are natural and safer for our overall health. Yet, deodorants don’t always ensure the same confidence as antiperspirants since they are meant to shield against odor rather than prevent wetness. But the natural deodorant market has really blossomed as of late, getting more innovative with herbs and essential oils that can rival the most powerful of antiperspirants—these are our top picks.
Earth-friendly
This is far and away one of the best natural deodorants out there. The scents skew more feminine but they are delicate and fresh, never overpowering. Floral options include rose, lavender, ylang ylang, and mimosa, but better yet—they are all alcohol, aluminum, and paraben free—you’ll feel confident for hours on end with this stick.

This scientific superhero, known as sodium bicarbonate, you will surprise you with its 24-hour coverage. Boasting a blend of completely natural and plant-based ingredients, this stick glides on clear and won’t ever leave your shirts with that awful yellow stain many antiperspirants are known for leaving behind.

Another great choice for men and women seeking a stink-free upper body without the use of harsh chemicals like aluminum and parabens. Ursa Major holds a high standard of using all natural ingredients and this unscented option looks to mint and eucalyptus to help fight odor. The eucalyptus adds a cooling effect while the blend of other plant-based ingredients work to absorb moisture.
