Ethique Botanica Floral Deodorant Stick for Men & Women - Aluminum-Free, Plastic-Free, Vegan, Cruelty-Free, Eco-Friendly, 2.47 oz (Pack of 1)…

Been using this for a while. No reason to stop.

I absolutely love this deodorant and have been using it exclusively for about 3 years now. The mission of Ethique is commendable and I fully support their elimination of unnecessary plastics from their products. Two years ago I tested the compost-ability of the package along with the empty paper tube and found no trace of it when I turned the soil in the following spring.The only things I don't like are the purple residue and the way the deodorant can crumble apart at the end of the tube. It can leave stains on bras, tank tops, and other garments that touch the underarms. It usually washes out if you wash it the item right away, but for things like my white sports bras the stains will not come out without special treatment.When it crumbles apart the the end, like the last centimeter of the tube, I save the broken pieces to melt back into a solid piece. I fill a heat safe bowl with boiling water, place the deodorant pieces in a pyrex measuring cup and set the cup in the bowl so the surrounding heat melts the pieces like a double boiler. Stirring the pieces around until it's a thin liquid, then I pour it back into the empty deodorant tube and when it's cool it's good as new.

This product works great and it lasts all day. My only complaint is that it goes on purple and leaves purple on my bra and shirts. Their other sent which is green does not do this. I have recommended it to friends that love it as well.

It works well at preventing odor and sweat. Good, subtle smell. Green flavor is softer and spreads better than the unscented, which is rather a stiff clay consistency, which does not spread well.

Vegan and smells good all day long
