Weleda Sage Deodorant

I have been using Weleda Sage deodorant for years now. Amazon definitely has the cheapest price around - at natural grocery stores it is usually about $12-15 a pop. This stuff is really amazing - it is the only natural deodorant I have ever used that actually works (besides one other kind that you have to special order from Brooklyn.... more about that later.) It has an amazing lavender/sage smell and it is in a pump bottle. It is alcohol based, so you have to be okay with that, but I think that's why it actually works. I have really tried every other kind of natural deodorant - all of the stuff that people swear by never worked for me. Alba, Tom's the Crystal - none of it works until I found this kind, That being said - it does not work quite as well as aluminum-based regular anti-perspirant, especially if you are a big sweater. I am not that big of a sweater and more concerned about B.O. that actual sweating. You have to put this on right out of the shower or wash off before you use it for it to truly work but it does work. I ended up finding this amazing deodorant that people swear by that I use on really hot days and in the summer and I mostly now use the Weleda for when it's not so hot outside. The other deodorant is called "Soapwalla" cream deodorant. You can only get it online or from these special shops in Brooklyn. It is made in the hipster's kitchen. It is amazing and works as good as any deodorant, even for big sweaters. It is pretty expensive but I highly recommend it. The only thing I don't like about it is that you have to put it on with your fingers - it comes in a little jar. I much prefer my Weleda for day-to-day but the Soapwalla is great for the big jobs when I really don't want to sweat.

It is very rarely that I like a scent and see it working for many people. I also find deodorants and perfumes too sweet, too flowery or too something offensive in general. My best guy says I have a supernatural sense of smell and his is probably right as I can smell even when people are about to get sick. Well... in any case, this is a great scent and it doesn't smell artificial either. It hasn't bothered my skin not even once and it lasts okay for just a deodorant with no bad stuff in. My best guy also said he loved it for a while and he must have used it for about half a year before he went back to the aluminum bad stuff--because he felt not secure enough for the summer sweating. But let me check again with him... (calling him) "Yes, I would recommend it. I would say it is very good for about 6 to 8 hours and then it starts to wear off. But I would say this. I looooove the way it smells. It doesn't smell like sage, it smells like a really fresh clean smell. I really like how it smelled. It became my quick freshen up deodorant. Few quick sprays and I would go out. The ladies would go crazy when I wore it. I couldn't even get to the bottom of my stairs before the ladies got interested." Okay so yes, I guess we both recommend it. But I am upset now about the ladies downstairs...

It's hard to find effective, all natural deodorant with natural fragrance. This works for me, and has a pleasant scent.

Excellent product

Weleda Sage Deodorant is great for people with sensitive skin. No rash-inducing ingredients hete, or at least for me. I find that it is effective enough for the workday, although it might need refreshing for the evening.

Smells like flavored vodka. Very strong alcohol smell, slight sage smell. The alcohol knocks body odor down instantly but doesn’t do anything after it’s dry. As a deodorant it only last a few hours under light duty. My search continues…

I try very hard to watch the chemicals I put in and on my body for many reasons, but especially since I have an MTHFR mutation and one of the characteristics of this is being inefficient at clearing toxins from the body, but especially metals. Aluminum is widely used in antiperspirant products, even some so-called natural ones, so I have been seeking out alternatives for my husband and I to keep the stink at bay and yet protect our bodies. Weleda makes this wonderful spray deodorant and I bought both available scents to try out, originally intending one for me and one for my husband. Both scents, ultimately, are mild & suitable for anyone. After about a month of regular use, of this one (Sage), my husband developed a burning sensation and some irritation, so he discontinued the use. I now use it in rotation with others, and it does have a tingling sensation when it first goes on, but it subsides quickly for me. It does what it supposed to do fairly well. Keep in mind we are in the depths of a deep south summer right now, so it is asking a LOT out of any product to keep the stinks at bay. The light scent is stronger when first applied (obviously), but the effect does linger for at least a few hours. While it doesn't control the beast entirely, I can tell a very real difference when I am wearing it as opposed to nothing at all. I am also pleasantly surprised at how long it has lasted, even while rotating it with another product.
