Vanilla Skin Natural Deodorant - 48 Hour Odor Protection Natural Baking Soda Free & Aluminum Free, Salicylic Acid, Arrowroot Powder, Algae & Tamanu Oil - No Residue or Irritation

In a sea of vanilla and musky, woodsy deodorants, this one was a literal breath of fresh air. I’ve always preferred clean or light/unscented deodorants, but I love this scent — fruity but also earthy and a little musky so you don’t smell like a teenage girl. Not overly perfumed at all. And it actually works really well. I do moderate to high intensity cardio 4-5 times a week and it holds up at the gym. Doesn’t stain clothes or transfer as easily as some others. This is the first natural deodorant I have been able to easily switch to for good.

I've tried so many natural deodorants over the years, and PHLUR’s Father Figure & Vanilla Skin combo is by far the best I’ve found, especially for someone like me who deals with Hidradenitis Suppurativa (HS). If you have sensitive underarms, are prone to flare-ups, or struggle with finding deodorants that don’t clog pores or cause irritation, this is a game-changer. What I Love: No Baking Soda & No Aluminum – This is crucial for anyone with HS or sensitive skin. Baking soda often causes dryness or burns for me, but this formula skips it and still controls odor effectively. No Bumps or Irritation – After weeks of use, zero bumps, redness, or friction. That’s huge for me. Long-Lasting Odor Protection (Really Does Last 48 Hours) – I live in the hot Southern climate, and whether I'm running errands or out for hours, it holds up beautifully and keeps me fresh throughout the day. Clean Ingredients That Actually Work – Ingredients like salicylic acid, arrowroot powder, and tamanu oil do more than mask odor, they keep skin balanced and calm inflammation. The salicylic acid gently exfoliates, which helps prevent clogged pores (a big plus for HS flare-ups). No Residue, No White Marks – It goes on clear and dries down fast. I can throw on a black shirt right after without worrying. Scent – "Father Figure" is warm, earthy, and not overpowering - think subtle sophistication with a gender-neutral vibe. "Vanilla Skin" is soft and slightly sweet but still clean. I layer them sometimes and they blend beautifully. Texture & Application: It’s a smooth solid, not too hard, not too oily. It glides on effortlessly, which matters when your skin is sensitive or healing from a flare. Final Thoughts: If you’re navigating Hidradenitis Suppurativa or just have ultra-sensitive underarms, this deodorant might be your holy grail. No bumps, no stinging, no weird residue - and it actually works. It’s a little pricier than drugstore options, but for the comfort and confidence it gives me daily, it’s worth every penny.

Love the Vanilla Skin and it's the first non-aluminum deodorant that works all day and doesn't smell weird when it mixes with sweat. The Father Figure is also a pleasant smell, not super strong, but the Vanilla smells amazing and goes on smoothly. I have a sensitivity to scents and neither have bothered me at all. It's a little pricey but worth it to me

I’ve been using the Phlur Vanilla Deodorant for a bit now, and I’m genuinely impressed with how well it works. The scent is warm, soft, and not overpowering—just a really lovely vanilla that feels elevated rather than sugary. It keeps me fresh all day, even on long, busy workdays, which is more than I can say for most natural deodorants I’ve tried. My only hesitation is the price. It’s definitely on the higher end for deodorant, and I wish it were a little more budget-friendly. That said, the quality is there, and if you’re willing to splurge a bit for something that smells amazing and actually performs, it’s a great pick. Overall, I’m happy with it—just hoping the price comes down someday.

I have been on the hunt for a good natural deodorant for years, and I finally found one I like with PHLUR Vanilla Skin Natural Deodorant! I personally think it’s the best one I’ve tried. The smell is really enjoyable and keeps your under arms nice and fresh! The applicator of the product is a really nice twist design and the product itself glides nice and smoothly onto your skin. In the past I was really looking for a deodorant I couldn’t sweat off in 2 minutes and ruin my clothes, and since this isn’t an antiperspirant it doesn’t stop 100% of my sweat BUT with the arrowroot powder it has been one of the better ones I tried! I also recommend this to a friend with sensitive skin and she had no irritation! The cost I personally think is a little steep, but it seems to be on par with others like it and I do think it’s worth the investment 💪🏽

When I first started using this product I feel that it did an excellent job keeping bad BO away and replacing it with a lovely vanilla smell. However, over time it started to mix with my pheromones in a weird way and eventually stopped working for smell. Considering it is aluminum free it is not a good antiperspirant if that’s what you are looking for. I’m a sweater so I have gotten used to the moisture if using aluminum free deodorants. Maybe it will work long term for others. It sucks bc the product quality is amazing so I wish it worked long term for me.

After a 12 hour shift and a trip to the gym for 2 hours I must say I am impressed I still smell like vanilla water, wish the scent was stronger but I get it less fragrances means less chemicals and better health but drop the price a little please

I really love this deodorant and continue to reuse and reorder it. I’ll be honest... I do notice that I sweat a bit sooner than I would with traditional deodorants, but that’s the tradeoff I expected with a cleaner formula. For me, it’s absolutely worth it. The ingredient list is a big win, no aluminum or baking soda, and it’s gentle with no irritation. The Vanilla Skin scent is subtle and really nice, and I don’t notice any residue on clothes. If you’re switching to a natural deodorant, just know there may be a small adjustment period. Overall, I’m really happy with it and will keep buying it.
