Review on ๐ŸŒธ Type A The Darling Deodorant: Long-Lasting Odor Protection in a Convenient 2.82 OZ Size by Kristy Young

Revainrating 3 out of 5

This is the one. for deodorants

This deodorant really works and for a natural deodorant it's impressive. I've been using aluminum free natural deodorants for about 4-5 years but it's been a constant battle and nothing has really turned out to be a winner. I've tried Native (Regular & Sensitive), Schmidt's (Regular & Sensitive), Dove 0%, Tom's Long Lasting, Lavanila (Sport, Regular & Probiotic), Secret Aluminum Free, Lone, Magsol, Crystal (stick version). , Arm & Hammer Naturals, Every & Every and Lume (maybe I'm missing something, but at least those are the ones I can remember lol). I have very sensitive skin (eczema) so all baking soda deodorants gave me a rash, some deodorants were too rough and crumbly, some were too oily or wet or just didn't work. The ones that worked for me tended to be baking soda deodorants, but then again, over time I would develop a terrible rash and my hands would turn darker. For the longest time I just put up with it and used Arm & Hammer Naturals as it was the most effective for me, didn't wet my armpits, wasn't harsh in texture and didn't mark under my arms and clothes (becomes clear almost immediately). But even then, despite the pain, I insisted on something that didn't control moisture at all (like many natural deodorants do), so I had to reapply it throughout the day, and the lack of moisture control made the rash worse. I had heard of Lume so I decided to give it a try and it worked amazingly but still didn't control moisture and over time I developed a rash due to the mandelic acid in the deodorant. Again, the lack of moisture control irritated the rash even more and to make matters worse the deodorant stopped completely in terms of odor control and I started smelling worse than I did at the start of this journey and 4-5 years long detoxified before . I went back to searching and trying to find a good deodorant until I tried this one. At first I thought it sucked, but I realized that I hadn't applied enough. You have to apply enough product so that you can move the applicator evenly over the entire armpit. After that I was incredibly impressed! I was wary of trying this because it contained baking soda, but gave it a try because the brand said they use less, and I've tried so many that didn't work I figured it couldn't hurt to have one trying different things and I'm glad I did. It lasts all day, even with the stresses of sweating, running around, and living in scorchingly hot South Florida. It doesn't irritate my armpits and I only have to apply it once in the morning and once before bed. It keeps me pretty dry and I like that the cream is dry when applied. I love the applicator and the feel of the cream on the skin is like a good moisturizer. I've only tried the "Extra" charcoal versions because I need extra help, but both are great (the fresh rain scent is a bit more deodorizing for my body because the scent lingers longer, but the difference with vanilla is minimal ). I really like the smell of this product and overall I'm just really impressed. I hope they continue to release a stronger version in different flavors and eventually offer Revain minis for travel. All in all, this deodorant is great and I can only recommend it. If it didn't work I would honestly go back to aluminum deodorants because everything else has failed so badly and I was so tired of literally raising my hand just a wee bit at noon and smelling the horrible smell of BO and incredibly self-aware. , and not at all sure. This Dezo really changed everything; I hope this never ends!
