From Desert Essence, Lemongrass deodorant: "Infused with bright fresh Lemongrass Essential Oil, this aluminum-free deodorant provides long-lasting odor protection and soothing skin benefits. Australian Tea Tree Oil known for its antiseptic qualities helps neutralize odor-causing bacteria, while Coconut Oil, Jojoba Oil and Shea Butter help calm sensitive skin.

The daily lemming
Caudalie launched Vinofresh, their aluminum-free natural deodorant, last year, and I still haven't tried it — raise your hand if you have! "Take care of your underarms while combating odors thanks to the new natural Vinofresh deodorant. Its unique formula is made up of 98% natural origin ingredients and is guaranteed aluminium-free, alcohol-free, silicone-free and baking soda-free. Effective for 24 hours, its stick format is easy to use: it acts in one go without leaving traces or blocking pores. This natural 24 hour deodorant is powered by Organic fresh-scent Eucalyptus and prebiotic Grape Water to control odor, hydrate, and support a healthier underarm flora." Reviews are mixed, as is usually the case with natural deodorants, but I'm wondering if it's any better than what I already have (Malin + Goetz Eucalyptus Deodorant). $15.
The (almost) daily lemming
Another brand introducing plastic-free, aluminum-free deodorant: Tom's of Maine. Shown are two options for sensitive skin: Fresh Rose and Creamy Coconut, both with hemp seed oil. $5 each at Target. If you don't need the sensitive skin version, there are also plastic-free versions in Coconut Lavender or Fresh Powder for women, and Cedar Peak or Rugged Coast for men.
