Product gifted by Wild Root in exchange for a review. All opinions are mine alone.
Going into 2020, I’m continuing my resolution from last year to incorporate more clean beauty products into my routine and have even expanded my goal into the skincare and body care world too! Recently I was approached by the brand Wildroot to test out their new natural deodorant line. Their deodorant is aluminum and paraben-free and the sister company to Simply Earth. That name might sound familiar since I reviewed their essential oils subscription boxes a while back which you can read about here.
You might’ve heard about the dangers of aluminum deodorants and of course, paragons which a lot of beauty brands are eliminating from products. Aluminum-containing deodorants prevent the body from getting rid of toxins from the body which causes your pores (such as your lymph nodes) to clog up which may lead to serious illnesses.
When it comes to natural deodorant, I’ve tried a few and haven’t really found any that I truly love. It’s embarrassing to admit that I do sweat a lot, especially when I’m nervous and a lot of natural deodorants don’t work for me as well as the regular ones.
Wildroot was kind enough to send me their natural deodorants to test and I received the scents Wildflower, from their performance line and Meadow, from their sensitive skin line. Sometimes it’s hard to tell what a product is going to smell like when you can only read the descriptions online but I was pleased to find that both scents smelled clean and wasn’t overpowering – I tend to get headaches from heavy, chemical scents that are common in deodorants.
I decided to try these deodorants during a busy event weekend for my company. I work as a social media manager and usually run around the whole time during our events trying to get the perfect IG Story or writing a tweet. I’m also meeting new people the whole time which means hugs! And then of course, after a long day we have a corporate party which means worrying about sweating and if I smell. For this event, I specifically tried the Wildflower scent from the Performance line and I’m SHOCKED at how well this worked. I stayed fresh and clean the whole day and didn’t worry about raising my arms and having “wet” marks. The best part was that I didn’t have to reapply in the middle of the day! It applied it at 9 am, worked through an entire event and then went to my corporate party at 6 pm and was still going strong!
If you’re looking for a new all natural deodorant to try, I highly recommend giving Wildroot a try. They have tons of different scents for both guys and girls and also come in cute travel sizes too! Not sure if you want to commit? Right now, they’re also doing a giveaway for a year’s worth of deodorant so make sure to enter on their site.
Thanks for reading,
