I have been testing out natural deodorants for years now and have found very few that work for me, whether it’s a matter of staying fresh all day or a scent that I like enough to repurchase. I feel like every month I am either testing out a new natural deodorant or I am simply going au naturale. Until now because I have finally found a deodorant that I want to buy in bulk.
Ursa Major is a Vermont based company who is creating amazing natural skincare products that are free of nasty chemicals. Their products are 98-100% natural, they use organic ingredients when possible and their products are gluten free and cruelty free. They also make the best natural deodorant I have ever tried.
Ursa Major’s Hoppin’ Fresh is pretty new to the natural deodorant scene. It’s honestly the first natural deodorant that I get really excited to wear because I know it’s going to work. It even claims 24-hour protection and let me tell you, I believe it. I have worn this all day including a gym workout and it has left me feeling (and smelling) fresh without having to reapply.
The deodorant is filled with ingredients including eucalyptus, hops and kaolin clay that help to protect against odor causing bacteria. A bit of aloe is added to help sooth sensitive skin as well and I personally think it helps counteract the baking soda because I haven’t found the urge to itch my pits at all and often natural deodorants with baking soda have me scratching all day.
Now the scent is the only thing that I think might be a little more of a hit or miss for people. I personally really love the fresh, herby smell of eucalyptus, ginger, rosemary, grapefruit, chamomile and lemon but and I find that it doesn’t stick around or negatively interact with other scents that I might choose to wear. However I would love to see Ursa Major come out with more scents that work just as well as their Hoppin’ Fresh Natural Deodorant.
Overall I’m over the moon and I just can’t stop talking about this deodorant to friends, family and other gym goers. I am thrilled to finally find an amazing natural deodorant to share with you. My natural deodorant investigation isn’t over yet because I know there are still a bunch I have never tried before but I can guarantee I’ll have a Hoppin’ Fresh on hand at all times.
Do you use natural deodorant? Why or why not? What is your favorite natural deodorant?

Sounds like a winner!

Sounds like a good one! Where do you get it locally? Would be curious to check it out. I’m not really one for scents, but I am curious about using more natural products (especially ones on my body!).

I would love to send you a sample and have you try one I am making? I am all for feedback as I am getting started. You can check out the natural deodorant and hard lotion bars at someessentials.com

I definitely need to check this one out. The only deodorant I have found that I can use is Tom’s (and a specific line of that brand, too), but I’d love to find another I can use and your review sounds great! Can you get it at Whole Foods or Pharmaca?
