- Megababe Daily Deodorant | Aluminum-Free, Clear & Clean | 2.6 oz (2.6 oz (Pack of 1), Sunny Pits)

I'll start this off simply: Of the variety of options available online for natural essential oil deodorants that has lemon in it, this seems like the best I've found. 1. Although it has a lemony smell with a hint of "something else," it comes off as pretty gender neutral. Most importantly, it actually isn't so overpowering, it stands out when people are near you. Perfect for what I want... 2. My goal is to eliminate odor bacteria, not smell like lemons. This does it perfectly (while still smelling a little like lemons). The lemon essential oils impregnated through helps kill the odor bacterial, meaning although you can still sweat under your arms a little, it will be scent free. 3. For me, it works all day. I am pretty active all day, however I will warn if you "stress sweat" alot, then you might want to apply a second time at lunch or something. 4. The size IMO is a little small. That is good for portability, but not the best for longevity. Luckily, you'll usually only use a small thin layer per application, so even though the amount is deceptively little, it does seem to go a long way with general use. Maybe, a month of daily use? Maybe a little less? Not sure, but a big plus is you can easily dig out the remnants and lay them out, then take pieces and rub under your armpits to use the rest up. Pretty nice. 5. The price is a bit expensive. It can be found in local stores (ask if you want an answer to this), but for a similar price. Oh well. Overall: I'm happy with the relatively-neutral smell this deodorant has. I will suggest it, especially if you're looking for a neutral smell that keeps odor bacteria at bay. I hope they keep making this stuff. For those on a budget: Here's a cheap home-made alternative that is, unfortunately, much more of a hassle than just applying this deodorant and go: Mix lemon juice/lemon essential oils & baking soda Allow the reaction to subside. Keep mixing until a manageable paste is formed. Grab the paste and put it directly under your armpits. Rub it in. Keep it there for 3-10 minutes. Take a shower to rinse the paste off. Do NOT use soap under your armpits until the next time you shower again. Repeat above steps. It will keep odor at bay, and is affordable for those on a tight budget. Alternatively, you could also use a half a lemon and press/squeeze it under your arms. Why this works? The lemon juice actually kills the bacteria under your armpits that cause odor. Furthermore, the lemon juice changes the pH under your armpits temporarily, so more bacteria has a hard time coming back. The lemon juice typically doesn't irritate most skins. As an added bonus: the baking soda will lighten up dark under armpits for those who have more melanin. An easier option (that has worked so far) is just buy this deodorant. I highly suggest it. Thank you!!!

Works great and smells great! Lasts a long time!

I wanted to transition to aluminum free deodorant for so many years, but every time I tried to make the switch, I stunk so badly☹️ Ive always used Degree, and it certainly worked great. My concern was, as an anxiety sufferer, the negative impacts of aluminum had me wondering how much difference it would make if I just cut it where I could, like my deodorant… So finally I went for it about 6mo ago, ordered a set of Wild deodorant and vowed to never turn back. I kept my last half-used Degree, “just in case”, but the crazy thing is, more and more id see it sitting on my shelf and became increasingly skeeved out by it! I would feel a snarl forming when I looked at it, lol. (I have pretty good intuition, so I didn’t take it lightly that I was getting these bad vibes.) I finally threw it out one day when I discovered that even though I ran out of my Wild natural deodorant I was afraid to put the degree back on my skin. I was willing to take the risk of stinking over using Degree again. That was interesting for me, and a huge development. Wild deodorant was working fine, and I loved the reusable case just because they came in so many cute designs & colors and they come out with new ones etc…. I even bought some as gifts (they have an engraving option on the cases which is super cool), and I waited to make sure it worked first. I digress. One day when I was frustrated because my subscriber and save Wild order got backed up somehow…. They make it annoying to log into your account, and sometimes I don’t have the time to go through hoops just to order some damn deodorant. It’s also expensive (which many brands are too pricey I’ve noticed)! Another thing I didn’t like about Wild but I dealt with, was their deodorant is really white and creamy, which isn’t a dealbreaker but it’s certainly something that could be improved. Anyway, I needed a deodorant fast, so out of the few I found on Amazon which would come fast and be reasonably priced, I chose this Megababe Beachy Pits. THIS DEODORANT IS THE BOMB!!!!! Omg it smells really nice, and it’s a nice translucent solid, so no white marks on the shirt, and it’s nice and compact enough to throw in my bag if I need to. Like most natural deodorants you will probably have to reapply later in the day, but who cares?? It’s very good. I haven’t tried the rose or citrus scent, but I will. So far the Beachy scent is just perfect. It’s a tad perfumey for those who don’t like scents, but I like that. It’s actually not a scent id choose for a perfume or lotion, but somehow on my armpits I am in love with it. The best part is, I never stink!! I received my Wild refill delivery a few days later and immediately cancelled my account. Unless they change their formula to be closer to this translucent type like Megababe has, I’ll never buy Wild again. I’m so happy. What a silly thing to say about deodorant but whatever, it’s good not to stink, and it’s good that it’s aluminum free. I like my brain to function, and aluminum is a no-go for me from here on out. Lastly, I like that their store on Amazon has a full line of products for men and women, and not just for armpits. I can’t wait to try their charcoal soap. I also have recommended it to a couple people who told me their kids are starting to have stinky armpits but they don’t want to introduce antiperspirant. This is a win for all. Thanks Megababe!!! ❤️

This is the only brand of deodorant I can use right now. I have really sensitive underarms and get psoriasis or a rash with all other brands. So far I have used 2 different scents from megababe and I have been okay with both. They do transfer a little white cast on my shirt if I don't let it dry, but that's my only complaint. I sweat a lot doing hot yoga and this DO does a really good job with odor control especially compared to other natural deodorants, I have tried at least ten other brands and I love this one!

Great deodorant!!!! No aluminum which is important to me. Goes on smoothly and works great.

Smells great, rolls on really easy. It’s clear so no pit stains. A little pricey but it’s works great. Reorder every time! I couldn’t use native because apparently I’m sensitive to the baking soda, this is a good alternative for me!

Megababe does everything right! It covers me throughout the day and has a light, clean scent.

I bought this as an alternative to the geo deo, which works better but leaves white residue on clothes. Pro: the smell is fantastic. I will catch a whiff when I am moving around and want to smell it again. Cons: it is very acidic. If you have sensitive pits or razor burn, it will inflame your skin. That really hurts. It also lasts maybe 5 or 6 hours. I sweat very little, but it still wears off and I can start to smell my pits before the end of a workday. If you're going to buy this, you need to carry it on you so you can reapply throughout the day.
