It is exciting to see so many plastic free deodorants available now, but with so many choices, how do you pick the right one for you? Whether you have sensitive skin or are vegan, prefer a deodorant paste or hands free application, Biome has a plastic free deodorant for you!
The following deodorants are completely free from plastic packaging, and include a range of application styles.
Plastic Free Deodorant for Sensitive Skin
If you have sensitive skin or notice some natural deodorants give you a rash, we recommend opting for a natural deodorant that does not contain bi carb or essential oils. These are our picks.
