How-To Use A Vegan Deodorant

Sweating is healthy. Smelling bad... not so much. Body odor is caused by bacteria. Not harmful, but not pleasant either. You can find deodorants that are not also antiperspirants, but you also need to find one made by a company that doesn't test on animals, and preferably isn't packed with a bunch of chemical crap.

And it needs to work.

Luckily, there are many options. With a little trial and error, you can find a simple solution for what works best for you:

  • Store-bought deodorant - PETA's list for men & VeganCuts deodorant roundup
  • Homemade deodorant pastes - Here is an easy 4-ingredient recipe 
  • Tea tree oil - Just dab it on, full-strength or cut with water (It works really well, if only I weren't allergic!)
  • Lemon - Yep. Just lemon. Works marvelously. Rub it on 1-2 times per day. One small lemon lasts me the week.
That was easy! Now you smell good!
