  This product works ok...

  by Spode411 (7 reviews)

  I was trying to switch away from mainstream deoderants, because I don't like the active ingredient (the aluminum zirconium compound in most deoderants)--I don't like the way that ingredient makes my skin feel. Tom's of Maine does a good job with that, and uses hops of all things as its active ingredient. The downside, tho...ugh, is that it's not that great on particularly warm days--I find I have to alternate between this and my old deoderant in order to maintain the best protection when it's really hot out.

  Long time user

  by ecosalu (5 reviews)

  I've been using their unscented deodorant for at least seven years - I like it because it's light (it's clear and doesn't stain clothing), it works (lasts all day for me), and I like the smell (I know, it's unscented but it still has an ever so slight fragrance that I happen to like). It doesn't get top marks for me though... because I really am trying to cut down on packaging and plastics and this comes in a pretty chunky plastic container that I feel guilty tossing out. Also, I have some concerns about the daily use of PROPYLENE GLYCOL on my body - which is the first ingredient and has been linked to some unwanted health impacts. May 29, 2008, 11:11 pm

  Not so great for sensative skin!

  by ashumard (98 reviews)

  Top 500 ReviewerTrusted Review

  I have fairly sensitive skin and so I thought this deodorant would be great because there are no harsh ingredients however I was wrong it burned when I would put it on and caused my underarm skin to peel. I do give it a 5 though because it did protect against odor. May 4, 2008, 4:33 pm

  My HG everyday deodorant

  by anaxarete (5 reviews)

  I started wearing Toms because I was looking for a deodorant that was unscented and aluminum free. On an average day, if I apply it in the morning, it keeps me un-smelly all day. Even if I haven't showered that day (it does happen sometimes) and I apply it in the morning, it'll work throughout the day. It is true that in Ju...ly and August (here in NYC) I will probably have to re-apply at some point during the day. When I was in nursing school, at the hospital, nervous and in a polyester uniform, I chose to wear an antiperspirant; but for life in the classroom and elsewhere Toms was perfect.

  I would really like to like this product but...

  by venus_nouveau (6 reviews)

  Admittedly, I am not an "all-natural" type of person. This would not normally be the first deoderant I would reach for when it comes time again to purchase a new deoderant(it's also relatively expensive may I say!). But after there has been talk about for the aluminum in deoderants is unhealthy and such I ended up... reaching for it. Ofcourse I nose swatched through the various rather avante-garde scents and really could not find one that took my fancy. They smell strong and...just odd...I guess. So I grabbed the "scent-free" version (which sorta smells waxy). Fortunately,I am not a person who sweats or has B.O. issues because not only is this not "Long-Lasting" it just plain doesn't do a thing! I did hit the gym and inadvertently was testing it. As it turns out I did have a faint unnatractivbes natural scent shall we call it and it seemed I really just applied the deoderant in vain.... February 20, 2008, 5:12 pm

  Tom's of Maine Natural Long-Lasting Deodorant Stick

  by Bagpiper (4 reviews)

  Tom's of Maine has some great products including this deodorant. I especially like the lemongrass fragrance. I find it really nice that they use hops as a natural ingredient for this deodorant stick. The antimicrobial action of hops inhibits the growth of odor-causing bacteria while reducing the possibility of skin irritati...on. They have Lavender,and Apricot fragrance and Unscented,too.

  Yikes

  by ModernDayWriter (165 reviews)

  Top 100 ReviewerTrusted Review

  This deodorant has been around way before the whole 'going green' trend started happening. As much as I'd love to go all natural and buy products like this one, I can't use something that doesn't work! I don't sweat that much (honestly!), but by the end of the work day, things aren't that fresh anymore. Don't even get me st...arted about using this at the gym. The scents are pretty good though. but unless you don't sweat at all or do zero activity during the day, skip this one. April 30, 2008, 4:47 am

  Hippie deodorant

  by butterflyblue81 (11 reviews)

  This stuff works sometimes. If you are prone to wetness and odor you will have to re-apply during the day and put it on before bed. I've tried so many natural deodorants and I can honestly say, I sweat through them all. I love addidas cotton tech. I'm sure it's not the most eco friendly and I may be getting some chemica...ls on my skin, but hey it works great! February 19, 2008, 5:53 pm

  LOVE this product

  by janedoe (25 reviews)

  Trusted Review

  This product works really well but most importantly it smells and FEELS amazing. Unlike many conventional deodorants it isn't heavy at all (actually it feels like you dont have anyting applied). It rolls on in a thin smooth layer and works for a good amount of time. It may require reapplying but its still worth using thi...s product. I really like the unscented variety but all the varieties smell quite nice. February 4, 2008, 11:46 am

  Just Okay

  by kimbear (16 reviews)

  Trusted Review

  I stay away from anti-perspirants so I tend toward the natural lines of deodorants. Tom's is just okay. It actually cause some underarm redness (I am super sensitive). I have now been using the natural salt spray deodorant and have loved it for over a year. May 30, 2008, 7:07 am
