Baking Soda Free Deodorant That Actually Works
If you've ever dealt with redness, itching, or irritation from natural deodorant, there's a chance baking soda could be the cause. While most people do just fine with it, a small number find it too harsh for everyday use. The good news? You don’t have to choose between comfort and effectiveness.
Why Baking Soda Can Cause Problems (for Some)
- High pH: Can occasionally disrupt your skin’s natural balance
- Irritation potential: May lead to redness, dryness, or rash in more sensitive individuals
- Overuse: Some formulas pack in too much baking soda, which raises the risk of a reaction

Our Baking Soda Free Solutions – for people who know they can't use baking soda deodorants
- Sensitive Formula: Completely baking soda free—uses magnesium and zinc oxide instead. It’s a great choice for ultra-sensitive skin, although it may not work equally well for everyone (but we have a money-back guarantee!). It also goes on white, due to the zinc oxide.
- Extra Strength Sensitive: Made with just 1/3 the usual amount of baking soda for better tolerance. And it tends to work better for more people.
- Effective and gentle: Both deliver odor protection—without the discomfort.
Not sure which one to try? We recommend starting with a baking soda free formula. If that doesn't work well enough for you, you can layer your baking soda deodorant on top—layering does offer skin protection for a lot of people. If that combo works best for you, there’s a good chance our Extra Strength Sensitive formula will be a perfect long-term fit.
And don’t worry—we offer a money-back guarantee (or replacement) on your first stick if it doesn’t work out.
Who It’s For
- Known sensitivity: Anyone who knows they’re sensitive to baking soda
- Past irritation: Those who’ve experienced burning, stinging, or rash with other natural deodorants
-
Preventive approach: People who prefer to avoid baking soda just in case—
though we don’t suggest skipping it by default. Our Original formula works well for most, and if you ever react to it, we’ll gladly send you a baking soda free version as a replacement under our money-back guarantee.
