Based Bodyworks Natural Deodorant For Men, All Day Odor Protection, Aluminum Free with Magnesium, Beeswax & Shea Butter, 100% Paraben, Sulfate, Phthalate Free, Naturally Scented Guava Nectar

My nephew used the new deodorant and was extremely pleased that even after school there was no body odor

I've been trying to make the switch to more natural body care products, and this deodorant from Based Bodyworks caught my eye with its ingredient list and the promise of all-day odor protection. I’ve been using the Bergamot Vanilla scent for a couple of weeks now, and overall, I’m impressed.First off, the scent is mellow and pleasant. It leans more on the vanilla side—some might even say it smells a bit like dessert—but it’s not overpowering once applied. It definitely keeps odor in check throughout the day, even when I’ve been active or out in warm weather. That’s a win in my book, especially for a product that’s aluminum-free.Where it stumbles a bit is in the application. The texture of the stick is quite dry, and you do have to press and drag more than you would with most mainstream brands. It's not painful or anything, just a little tuggy on the skin—especially if you're in a rush. Once it's on, though, it feels clean and doesn't leave a greasy or sticky residue.I also really appreciate the ingredient list—magnesium, shea butter, beeswax—all things I feel good about putting on my skin. And the fact that it's free from parabens, sulfates, and phthalates makes it easier to justify the slightly higher price point.If the formula were a bit creamier or smoother to apply, this would probably be a perfect five. Still, it's a solid choice if you're looking for a natural deodorant that does its job without any harsh ingredients.

Always looking for natural deodorants - sweat should be allowed to happen! Had too many problems with regular anti-perspirants - clogging pores and causing major irritation under my arm.Packaging is elegant. You love looking at this thing and holding it in your hand. Upon initially opening the cap, my immediate thought on the scent was Birthday Cake. There is no hint of a citrusy bergamot as claimed. The stick itself looks like dried clay.I put this on and it is difficult to spread - it feels dry against the skin and you end up tugging it a bit to get the product under your arm. Luckily the scent is not overpowering on you once it is on. You are left with a subtle vanilla scent. I have stayed in the heat with this product and can say I was still "fresh." It is effective without having to re-apply.The reason for the 3 stars is the "dryness" and difficulty in applying the product, and the very sweet birthday cake scent.

It smells good and it lasts throughout the day and it’s all natural

I appreciate that this deodorant is natural, even if I'm not entirely sure what that means. The scent is quite pleasant and not overpowering, which is a big plus. My main issue is the application: it goes on quite thick and sticky, leading to matted armpit hair. While I want to like it for its natural aspect, the sticky texture makes me lean towards sticking with my usual Old Spice.

No complaints, no odor no nothing?, great product

This Magnesium Deodorant with Bergamot Vanilla scent has a pleasant scent. I like that it is aluminum-free and safe for all skin types. It fights odor all day and is made from natural ingredients. The fragrance is light and not overpowering. It comes in a nice tube, but it does not apply as well as other brands. While it does the job it is intended for, stronger deodorants with a cheaper price are available.

It’s good it last all day
