Wild natural deodorant vs. antiperspirant: why a natural deo is the better choice.

Knowing what to use to keep yourself fresh and B.O. free all day can be a really tricky thing. There’s so much information on every product shouting the virtues of this or that. So, let’s break down the differences between Wild’s natural deodorant and traditional antiperspirants, and discover why making the switch is a smart move for your health and the planet.

First things first: antiperspirants and natural deodorants are not the same. Antiperspirants work by blocking your sweat glands to stop perspiration. They often contain aluminium salts that form a gel to clog your sweat pores. Sure, this might keep you dry. But it disrupts your body’s natural temperature regulation. In contrast, natural deodorants, like those from Wild, allow your body to sweat while preventing odour. Our formulas fight the bacteria that cause body odour, letting your skin breathe and keeping you feeling fresh. Simple and effective, right?

1. Keep it natural Sweating is essential for your body’s cooling and detox processes. Wild natural deodorant supports these functions by allowing your skin to breathe freely. No sweat blockage—just fresh, happy skin.
2. Nothing nasty Many conventional antiperspirants contain synthetic ingredients and aluminium, raising concerns about potential health risks. With Wild, you can confidently choose a natural deodorant made from safe ingredients. Our formulations include nourishing elements like Coconut Oil and Shea Butter, keeping your underarms soft and moisturised.
3. For pits and planet At Wild, sustainability is a priority. Our natural deodorants come in refillable packaging, reducing waste and promoting environmental responsibility. Unlike traditional antiperspirants, which can contribute to greenhouse gas emissions, our products are designed to be kinder to the planet.
4. 24hr protection Think antiperspirants are the only way to stay fresh all day? Think again! Wild natural deodorants provide effective, all-day odour protection without blocking sweat. Plus, our range of delightful scents ensures you’ll feel fabulous from morning to night.
5. Vegan & cruelty free If animal welfare matters to you, you’ll love that Wild is both cruelty-free and vegan. We create products that are good for you and kind to animals, so you can feel great about what you apply to your skin.
6. Time to switch Choosing Wild natural deodorant means embracing your body’s natural processes while prioritising your health and the environment. It’s a bold and positive step, and we’re here to support you every step of the way.
