Does Wild natural deodorant work (& are they sustainable?) / HONEST REVIEW

[@MonIca-jd3xp]

I’ve been using Wild for over a year and I have no complaints. I am a sweaty person and I hate summer heat. Where I live it gets to 30-35 degrees Celsius and Wild works well for me (not great,but well). My clothes don’t smell funny and I don’t stink after coming home from work and thats all I need. I tried the original version with baking soda but it gave me a huge rash so I opted for the sensitive version and it’s been great😊 Too bad it doesn’t work for everyone..I really like the scents they come up with.

[@LifeBeforePlastic]

So glad to hear it works for you! Also that you found the sensitive one works because they can always be touch and go.

It's funny because I've always had a lot of trouble with deodorants, I've always used deodorant sprays for men even though I knew they weren't good for my skin, I'd tried "natural" deodorants from the supermarkets from time to time but the smell.... and when I discovered Wild, it was incredible! I can say that I've reduced my odour by 90%, even I didn't believe it. In terms of sweating, I haven't seen any difference. Once again, every body is different, but I'm really delighted with Wild

[@LifeBeforePlastic]

I'm so glad that you've had such a positive experience!!!

I have used natural deodorants for years. They either work or not meaning I will smell my sweat or not. But Wild deodorant does something strange, It changes it's own smell after few hour to very unpleasant one, and it's not the sweat smell, it's the deodorant itself that starts smelling off. I can still smell that strange odour on my t-shirts even after washing them. I wonder if anyone got similar experience with it.

[@WordShaker95]

I found it really made my clothes smell wierd after a while too, like it wasnt quite washing out properly and then getting a musty smell 🙃

I really wanted this to work to justify the price per oz. I have used natural deodorant for a year without having to detox. I use baking soda free due to sensitivity.The scents are great. It's not super strong as to not over power my fragrance. I almost got a full day of coverage. Which is surprising, given the number of ingredients. I have used homemade Etsy deo's with 5 ingredients that last 2 days. Maybe if they used probiotics? Very bummed it didn't work well.

[@wanda7554]

I read that the new refills also work with the old case which is always a good thing! :)

[@LifeBeforePlastic]

Yes this is true! They couldn’t have done it any other way without replacing everyone’s case

[@g1zm0godzilla]

I was so excited to try Wild and so disappointed when it didn't work for me. I really like the design and the smells and usually I have no issues with natural deodorant so I'm not sure if that is the issue but the constant stains were so offputting for me. I also assumed based on the website that its a gender neutral product but its definitely designed for feminine women/female-bodied people exclusively 🙃🙃 I'm glad it doesn't seem to cause issues for everyone but like you mentioned in the video it leaves very visible white streaks on clothes that have any contact with your armpit. Every time I see a review that brings this up or mentions it the comments are so dismissive which puts me off even more. So many people are like "well you must be using sooooo much" like ..... I'm using the same amount as always and its staining absolutely every thing and it does not come out in the wash. I have to use extra detergent and once even a bleach mix to get it off ☠☠I'm hoping they will revise but it seems like an issue the company does not want to address since their default answer is "rub it in with your fingers" as tho deodorant sticks aren't designed with a clear purpose. If I wanted to rub deodorant in my skin I would just do that and not buy a product in a stick 🙄🙄Guess I'll try Fussy next and hope for the best!

[@LifeBeforePlastic]

@@g1zm0godzilla thank you for your review too! I’d love to know how you find Fussy! My partner and I both use it so I find their scents more gender neutral, especially cloud nine

[@bobbielee4855]

I am hoping that I am not going to have an allergic reaction to this one. I had to start making my own a few years ago because everything I tried I would break out on. But thank you for this great review. It basically lets me know not to get my hopes up and to make sure I have the shea butter, and other items I need to make my own again.

[@Marie...C24]

Thanks for the video! Same here, I REALLY want to like it, love the smells, but feel it doesn't do a great job on me once it gets warmer 😮 Ordered *Fussy, excited to compare! Thanks also for the recommendation 🌸

[@LifeBeforePlastic]

let me know how you get on with Fussy!

[@GreenStarMidoriBoshi]

I have the same impresions. I only used this brand in the last year. My only problem, that I have with all coconut deodorants, if that it "stains" with product, very visible, dark tops/blouses. If you touch your armpits while dressing, you need to change the blouse. They smell very good, but I like the case, that it doesn't look cheap/doesn't have a lot of text on it

[@anne-lisemackenzie1001]

This is such a helpful review! I'd used kutis natural deodorant for years but found the cardboard casing would deteriorate after a while making it difficult to use so I switched to Wild after seeing lot's of hype! I was disappointed by the amount of plastic inside the casing and also found replacing the deodorant really tricky (so glad you highlighted this as i thought it was just me 😂). I kind of feel a bit stuck with it now I've got the case as it seems wasteful to stop using it. What is the fussy deodorant casing made from? Thanks 😊

[@LifeBeforePlastic]

I would defo keep using it if it works for you! That’s the most susty option. The fussy case is made 100% from recycled plastic - not ideal but it’s all one material so would be easier to recycle at end of life.

[@helenwright3201]

I had to give up Wild because I just smelt so bad 😞 Im going to be trying Fussy soon so fingers crossed 🤞

[@ros8986]

I haven't used this but I use a potassium crystal block (looks like an ice cube) - no case needed - just wet, rub for 30 seconds, done.

[@LifeBeforePlastic]

Yes I have tried a crystal deodorant before. It works but I have to do a detox every day before using it which just seems impractical for me. I think also because I am a sweaty person that doesn’t help 😂😂

[@rosalynstewart2397]

Great review! I've been using Wild for a few months now and am at the point of giving up as it just doesn't work for me. I've made my own deodorant so I'm going to give it a go :)

[@LifeBeforePlastic]

So sorry to hear this. Let me know how your homemade one goes but also definitely try an armpit detox too to see if it helps. If you don’t want to make your own/it doesn’t work, I really recommend Fussy or AKT!

[@bumblebeez1995]

I really wanted to try it but it’s so expensive, I’m not a crazy sweaty person, but idk if I want to waste the money if it’s not going to work, that being said I find a lot of non natural deodorants work for me either

[@LifeBeforePlastic]

I do think it’s good for non-sweaty people, the scents are nice too but I would also do an armpit detox from time to time

[@claire2651]

Armpits don’t detox therefore there is no transition period that people claim. So don’t worry about switching to a natural deodorant

[@okoiful]

you crazy fam, the thing works wonders...

[@SnowshoeAviator]

I have tried a few different types of natural deodorants and they all work well for me, but I don't tend to sweat much at all. The majority of the time I don't wear deodorant, but if I am going to be doing a lot of physical activity I do go for it. Then on the other end of the spectrum my wife sweats a ton and natural deodorants just do not work for her. Just goes to show how varied human bodies can be!

[@LifeBeforePlastic]

This sounds like my partner and me! He barely sweats and only wears deo on special occasions 😅 Wild works for him so I’m lucky it won’t go to waste. If your wife anything like me a really recommend trying Fussy. I was getting frustrated but this one works wonders. You just have to accept that human bodies sweat but I don’t want to be stinky 🥹
