Why I’m Interested in Natural Deodorants

In this blog post, I wanted to talk about Wild as the latest natural deodorant I’ve tried. For a long time now, I’ve been looking out for natural, more eco-friendly alternatives of everyday products I use. This interest stems from my movement to become more eco-conscious with the creation of my previous business, House of Callaway, several years ago. I’ve also always been intrigued by the growing amount of information on the effects of using chemical-laden products on the body, hence my interest in choosing more natural alternatives. This post is a continuation of my journey to find the best natural deodorant for me.

What Is Wild Deodorant?

Wild deodorant is a refillable, natural deodorant. It is available to be ordered online but has been introduced into several supermarkets. The company claims that it is a 24-hour protection, aluminium-free formula and boasts compostable, plastic-free packaging. 

On the website, you can order either a one-off pack of a case plus refills, refills alone or you can join a subscription. From here, you can then select from several scent choices with limited edition scents popping up throughout the year (I tended to notice these coming out via their social media pages). 

When picking your scents, you’ll notice two formula options. The main difference is the active deodorising ingredient:

• Regular Range: uses Sodium Bicarbonate (Baking Soda). It’s a great option for odour protection but some people’s skin doesn’t agree with it.
• Sensitive Range: completely Bicarb-free. It uses Magnesium Hydroxide to combat smell gently. It’s the best choice if you’ve previously had a “deodorant rash” from other natural brands.

Both options are equally eco-friendly and fit the same refillable cases, so you can swap between them as your skin needs.

Wild Deodorant Review – First Impressions

On opening the box, I was really impressed by the packaging – it was recyclable but also premium-looking at the same time. I chose to purchase an aqua case along with 3 refills in Orange Zest, Mint and Eucalyptus and Coconut Dreams as a one-off purchase.

Installing the refill inside the case was a quick and easy process – I had initially been worried as I’d seen a few people say they’d had difficulty with this part but I had no issues.

My Thoughts on Wild Deodorant

Application of the deodorant was a pleasant experience each morning – the formula was creamy but not sticky. It did have a tendency to leave white marks on dark clothing so that was definitely something I was careful with when dressing. I did not notice any other kind of staining though on clothing after washing which was great (some other deodorants in the past have left yellow residue). 

The first fragrance I tried was the Orange Zest and I found that it was not strong enough for me personally with the scent fading after only a couple of hours. However, I later had the opportunity to try several other fragrances (reviews of them can be found here) and noticed that there are many others that last significantly longer.

In terms of odour protection, once I had gotten through a fairly lengthy adjustment period, I did not notice any issues with odour. In my opinion, I believe the fact I was alternating between aerosol antiperspirants and Wild applications might have made my adjustment far longer. I did not utilise any kind of ‘detox‘ methods as I’m not sure on my opinion of them and whether they are worthwhile for most people.

Would I Buy Wild Again?

Personally, I enjoyed the formula of Wild more than I’ve enjoyed other cream-type natural deodorants. I also enjoyed that comes in an easy-to-apply container rather than a tube or jar like other natural brands often do (I hate sticky/greasy fingers when in a rush in the morning!).

I also did not experience any sort of irritations which have been a problem in the past with other brands. Another plus for me is the fact that Wild is a significantly more eco-friendly option for me in comparison to another brand I normally enjoy, which comes in a plastic rollerball. In conclusion,  I would recommend Wild to anyone wanting to try out a brand of sustainable deodorant and will continue to buy it myself.
