I’ve never been able to find a natural deodorant that ‘worked’ for me.  I’ve tried so many different natural brands that left me smelling like B.O. and having yellow pit stains.  I thought natural deodorants were ineffective up until I tried Oars and Alps. It is my favorite natural deodorant and it’s one that actually works! Detoxing …

Let me know if you have any FL questions!
