5 Natural Deodorants You Can Buy In Malaysia
Sweating is completely normal, but no lady wants to smell bad. Ever.
And in hot, humid Malaysia, trying not to sweat is like searching for water in the desert.
Deodorants are a great way to battle foul-smelling underarms. They help kill off the bacteria that’s multiplying in your underarms, which is the cause of that unpleasant smell.
As someone who has decided to switch to natural deodorants without parabens, aluminium salts, phtalates and triclosan, it has been a challenge to hunt down effective, natural deodorants that actually work.
While the jury is still out there with regards to how safe these ingredients really are (there is no conclusive evidence that using deodorants cause cancer), I’m one of the paranoid ones who prefer to err on the side of caution. Why risk it when there are more natural alternatives out there that work just as well, or if not BETTER, than conventional ones?
Here are 5 effective, natural deodorants you can buy in Malaysia, all of which are without aluminium salts.
1) Human Nature – All Natural Women’s Roll-On Deodorant
Completely free from harmful chemicals, this all-natural deodorant fights odour-causing bacteria without leaving ugly white streaks on your shirts.
Even though it’s not labeled “whitening”, many have reported that this deodorant has helped to lighten and smooth their underarms because it’s enriched with Sunflower Oil. How awesome is that!

2) MooGoo – Fresh Cream Deodorant
This Fresh Cream Deodorant sounds good enough to eat, and it’s because MooGoo is obsessed with making their products as food-like as possible.
