Product Information

The base ingredients in Wild deodorant includes tapioca starch to absorb moisture, and sodium bicarbonate to control odour. Extracts of essential oils provide the fragrances. One user told us the deodorant had done a 'decent' job but that it sometimes needed to be reapplied during the day. Be cautious with products containing bicarbonate of soda (also known as sodium bicarbonate or baking powder) or essential oils if you have sensitive skin or if you tend to shave your underarm hair, as it might cause irritation. Some people find that they go through a 'detox' period of a few weeks as their pores gradually get rid of antiperspirant build-up, and this can temporarily lead to additional sweating and odour. Claims also suggest that this plugging of sweat ducts with certain aluminium compounds prevents the body ridding itself of potentially carcinogenic substances absorbed during antiperspirant use.

There are currently three unisex scents available, and the subscription option is easy to change online.

Users of Fit Pit in the office had mixed opinions on it. Some told us it was 'effective and long lasting' but 'can be a bit messy to apply'. However, Cancer Research UK says there is 'no good evidence' to suggest a link between aluminium in antiperspirants and cancer. Formulated with Aloe Vera and Grapefruit seed extract it leaves your skin feeling fresh and revitalised. It is essential that PitROK is applied to freshly cleaned skin, therefore always use immediately after your bath or shower. Apply to underarms or feet. Do not apply to broken skin.

Either use this refill crystal to replenish your PitROK original holder or use it 'naked' as a deodorant. But it's worth knowing that this is not necessary for letting out toxins, as some brands claim. Your body already has sophisticated detoxing processes in the form of your liver and kidneys. Sweating is more about effective temperature regulation than detoxing. The base ingredients include tapioca starch for moisture absorption and sodium bicarbonate for odour control. It also contains a range of natural fragrances including patchouli oil. There are several scents to choose from.A gentle but effective sensitive skin deodorant based on pure natural mineral salts that provides day-long protection against body odour without causing underarm itching and skin irritation. Natural deodorants are claimed to be kinder to skin by using largely naturally derived ingredients. Some might react to the bicarbonate of soda. One user told us: 'My girlfriend said it was really good, but it irritated her skin after a few months due to the bicarbonate of soda in the ingredients.' Another user told us they found it effective, and that the initial itchiness from the bicarb settled down after a few months. So you might need to give it a trial to see if it works for you. It told us: 'Some people have questioned whether aluminium in some deodorants and antiperspirants can affect cancer risk. But the scientific evidence doesn't currently support a link, so we don't want people to worry.'
