I have tried so many natural deoderants and they either wear off in just a few short hours, or irritate my skin so I have to stop using them. This is a fantastic product that lasts all day, and leaves my skin hydrated with no sign of irritation at all. Highly reccomend!

I have been on a hunt for a no nasties deodorant that ACTUALLY works (eliminates odor and moisture) and FINALLY, I've found it!! And I don't say this lightly.

Nickie

Have tried many natural deaodarants over the years, which mostly reacted with my skin so was super happy when I came across Oak & I, no reaction and left feeling fresh all day!

The best natural deodorants on the market.

Joel

Beautiful deodorant, works great! I love that it contains magnesium, we all need a little more magnesium in our lives! I switched to natural deodorant a year ago and never looked back, and since trying Oak & I deodorant I’ll be sticking with this brand.

Sarah

Love it! Smooth and hydrating. I especially love this for travel instead of packing bulky bottles of moisturiser. Its an A++ from me.

Tina

Best product! So moisturising and keeps well!

Questions? We’ve Got Answers.

Everything you need to feel confident shopping Oak & I.
How long will it take my body to adjust to natural deodorant?

It takes an average of 30 days, depending on your body chemistry.

Week 1: Expect the first week to show zero to little changes as the aluminium compounds inside your pores take time to clear out.

Week 2: Second week the body is detoxing and releasing all the aluminium in your pits that have been preventing you from sweating. Armpit bacteria will begin to change, at this stage you may notice some odour. This is a normal part of the transition phase.

Week 3: Third week the bacteria in your armpit begins to re-balance. Odorous bacteria will begin to subside and moisture levels will normalize.

Week 4: by now your amazing body should have fully adjusted.
