Rated 4.8 out of 5 stars
4.8 Stars (193 Reviews)

Healthy Inside-Out. 100% Aluminium-free.

Size:

DESCRIPTION
  • An aluminium-free, roll-on, natural deodorant
  • Free of aluminium due to our concerns about aluminium in antiperspirants
  • Slightly alkaline formula prevents odour causing bacteria from growing
  • Free from over-powering essential oils that mask odour and can cause irritation
  • Made with Milk of Magnesia and a light, fresh Lemon Myrtle scent
  • Naturally preserved with Hops Extract – free of Parabens and Phenoxyethanol

Most antiperspirants work by clogging pores with Aluminium salts. Aluminium in our armpits? No thanks. We feel that aluminium belongs in our roofs, not under our arms! Our formula works by allowing perspiration (which is odourless) and controlling odour causing bacteria. No bacteria, no smell.

We are proud of developing this unique formula in Australia. Bottled in a 115ml roll-on to make it easy to apply. We hope you enjoy the peace of mind doing something healthy for your body brings.

INGREDIENTS

Aqua (H₂O’s Fancy Name), Magnesium Hydroxide (Milk of Magnesia), Xanthan Gum (Food Grade Thickener), Piroctone Olamine (Olamine Salt), Backhousia Citriodora (Lemon Myrtle) Leaf Oil, Humulus Lupulus (Hops) Extract, Zea Mays (Corn) Starch, Hamamelis Virginiana (Witch Hazel) Extract.

Because we make our products for our families, we have a strict ingredient philosophy that excludes ingredients like Parabens, Phenoxyethanol and penetration enhancers.

We show all of the ingredients we use in our products on our website, not just the pretty ones. That way you know exactly what's in each one, and can get in touch if you have any more questions.

Please be aware that the ingredients we use in our formulas may be updated occasionally and therefore vary from time to time. Please refer to the ingredient list on the product packaging for the most up-to-date and relevant list of ingredients.

FAQs

Do natural deodorants work?

The confusion here seems to be endless. The answer is, well it depends. In comparison to antiperspirant products, which just like the name implies are anti-perspiration, then no, ours doesn’t work. The reason for this is because it’s a deodorant, which means it deodorises. No natural deodorant is an antiperspirant because ingredients that stop you from sweating by clogging your sweat glands contain aluminum, and putting aluminum under your arms isn’t exactly the most natural thing in the world.

Whether a crystal, a paste, or a roll-on like ours, the effectiveness of a deodorant is how well it controls your smelliness. Specifically, we use an alkaline formula to control odour-causing bacteria from throwing a party (no bacteria = no smell), but others like to use essential oils. We’re just not that into smelling like a Tea Tree Forest, and essentials oils can sometimes sting the delicate, thin skin of the armpit. You will still sweat – a natural process, and one we prefer not to mess with.

What’s the deal with switching to natural deodorants?

We often hear from customers who start using our natural deodorant after a long history of antiperspirant use. After a few days, some of them get in touch concerned that our deodorant doesn’t work for them, but mostly they’re just not used to sweating at all and think it’s not working. Some of them even let us know that they became really smelly. While this sounds bad, it’s actually a good thing! It means that your sweat glands are starting to detoxify themselves after being clogged up for so many years. Hallelujah! We found that there is a transition period of about 2 weeks as the body adjusts to the glorious new freedom of natural deodorant. We found that using our Gentle Exfoliating Micro Powder as an ‘armpit mask’ a couple of times a week helps with this detoxification. Simply mix water with the powder to form a paste, apply to underarms and wait 5 mins before hopping in the shower.

Is this product made of milk?

We aren’t called MooGoo because our products are made with milk. If you think about it, putting any meaningful amount of fresh milk into a cream and then putting it on a shelf in a store for a while would not end well – yuck! We do use ethically and sustainably sourced Milk Protein from a credible Australian supplier in some of our skincare products because research has found that it helps to increase skin elasticity by up to 20%.

If you want to know more about the Milk Protein we use, check out the General section on our FAQ page for more detailed information.

My new roller-ball is stuck and won't spin - is this normal?

When you first receive a roll-on product, sometimes you may notice the roller ball is a little stiff or won't move at all. This often happens because of the very cold temperatures our products are either stored in or transported in. Air freight containers can get below 0 degrees sometimes! Getting your roller ball working is easy: simply run the top of your product (with the roller ball) under very warm water. This will loosen the ball and get things 'rolling' again.

If you live in a place with fluctuating temperatures or just very cold winters, you may have to do this every so often!

    Best deodorant ever had

    Fantastic deodorant.

    No aluminium or other harmful chemicals.

    Once you apply, you stay fresh all day. People smell your perfume, not your armpits.

    I got it 3 years ago, never changed back. It’s that good!

    Good but doesn't really smell of anything

    Only used this a couple of times, it doesn't really smell of much and very wet on application - I had to use a hairdryer to speed up the drying process[!] but it definitely does work and will use daily when I finished what I'm using now.
