I have eczema, and I found most deodorants irritated my skin too much to use. This is the only brand that I have found that I can use without causing a rash. Smells nice too! Right now we have the unscented stick, which has "botanical hops to inhibit the growth of odor-causing bacteria and zinc ricinoleate to absorb odor." Works well.

I LOVE the way this stuff smells (I use the Apricot) and it feels great going on (just glides on.)

The only issue is that my brand of BO may just be a bit too strong for it to handle for an entire day. Maybe I'll keep an extra stick at the office to re-up mid day...

Anyway, I'm happy to use it because the ingredient lists on conventional anti-perspirants are absolutely terrifying, so I'm ok with a little sweat and a little odor to hopefully not infuse my body with too many harmful chemicals.

As much as one can swear by a deodorant, I do by Tom's. Compared to some of the big brands, the fragrances are calmer and much more plant-based. If you prefer a lavender or a lemongrass to a "pure sport" or "original," which may smell pleasant, but was obviously just cooked up in some lab, then Tom's is a great choice. I have some friends who sweat more than I do and they seem to find that Tom's wears off after a couple of hours and then they're just left with a truly natural aroma. I've not found this to be a problem. However, I would encourage a trial run if you think sweat a lot. Finally, this stuff is relatively expensive. Compared to the brands that come in a 3-pack for less than the cost of one stick of this stuff, the value's not that good. Of course, deodorant lasts a while and probably doesn't make up that much of your personal care product spend, so I would just go for it. The cool scents are worth it!

Works alright as long as you aren't sweating much. Sitting at a desk all day in air conditioning is fine but outside in Texas heat for a little bit and I start to stink. Would prefer a rollon clear vs a solid.
