  • Baking-soda-free (maker's description; no sodium bicarbonate in the list)
  • Seven ingredient entries, all named
  • Coconut oil, arrowroot, basil and vetiver are marked organic by the maker (no organic seal on the product)
  • Sizes: 0.5 oz, 2 oz and 6 oz

The maker positions this cream for underarms that react to conventional or baking-soda-based deodorants. Its ingredient list has seven entries: coconut oil, arrowroot powder, magnesium hydroxide, beeswax, a polyglyceryl-3 beeswax emulsifier, and basil and vetiver essential oils. The maker marks the coconut oil, arrowroot, basil and vetiver as organic; the finished product is not sold under an organic seal.

According to the page, the arrowroot absorbs moisture and the magnesium hydroxide helps manage odour without baking soda, while coconut oil and beeswax give a cream that glides on. It is scented with basil and vetiver, so it is not a fragrance-free product.

It is sold in 0.5 oz, 2 oz and 6 oz sizes. The maker says it is made without baking soda, aluminum, synthetic fragrance, parabens, petroleum-derived ingredients, phthalates or propylene glycol.
