Thank you for supporting our growing family business! - Melissa Kimbell, Owner Awake Organics Review: At last, a natural deodorant that works! - UPDATE Oct 2022: sadly, after about a year or so I had to stop using Moon Goo as it began making my skin react and be sore. I think it's the baking soda in it, so I tried their other one that doesn't have baking soda but it's a much runnier consistency and I found it impossible to use, especially in summer months. It's a real shame as I really liked this and the scent. It's hard to predict how skin will react to things and you can have a reaction or become allergic to something totally randomly after having previously been fine. I suspect with me it may in part be a peri-menopause symptom as new skin sensitivies and allergies are common at this stage in life. I now use Nuud as it's the only one seemingly guaranteed to not make me react - but it's nowhere near as effective on me as Moon Goo and more expensive! Long review. For about two years now I've been looking for a natural deodorant that doesn't waste plastic and actually works (and doesn't break the bank), to replace the traditional roll-on antiperspirants I have used my whole adult life. As well as being very poor from an environmental perspective, roll-on antiperspirants make me come out in painful lumps in my armpits after using them for a while, at which point I have to change brand until the same thing happens again. There is also the persistent though not proven concern about potential links between the aluminium in antiperspirants and breast cancer. On my quest to find a replacement, I have tried so many different natural deodorants that I have lost count. Some standouts listed here. Rock crystal deodorants - what a waste of time. I may as well not use anything at all. In fact, some expensive Japanese one I tried from Boots actually made me smell WORSE than if I wore no deodorant at all, and I ended up binning it well before it was finished - not exactly great for the environment! Ben & Anna, a solid roll-on in a cardboard tube. Good for the environment. Smelled nice. Worked a bit but frankly did not last me a whole day. The killer for me though was that as the tube wore down, the cardboard rubbed my skin and made my underarms sore, so not exactly an improvement on the lumps that antiperspirant gives me. Also it's really expensive. About the same price as this Moon Goo but I found I got through it in only a couple of weeks, making it expensive. At various points I have given up and gone back to traditional antiperspirants. After yet again coming out in painful underarm lumps (even with "Dove Sensitive", alcohol-free ones, and various supposed "aloe vera" formulations) I tried Nuud, the unscented cream deodorant in a biodegradable sugar cane tube. I tried the starter pack, which is a smaller tube than you get in a normal "smarter pack". This would have been what I settled on if I hadn't found Moon Goo. Nuud says that your body may need a couple of weeks to adjust to it (or to other natural deodorants), as it works through the chemicals in your system from traditional antiperspirants, but that after that you will probably only need to use it every few days. You're supposed to start off using it every other day. Personally I found it took more like three weeks until I felt it was working for me, and I never got to the point of daring to drop usage down to every three days because I felt I was definitely not as fresh as I'd like to be by the end of the second day. But generally speaking I felt it worked to a reasonably acceptable level most of the time - wouldn't really stand up to an extended exercise session though. I didn't mind it not having a scent, that's better than a nasty scent. However I feel it, too, works out expensive because it's pricey for a small tube - you only use a pea sized amount per underarm so if you are one of those amazing people who can go five days between Nuud application, it probably works out to a reasonable cost. However if you are stuck using it every other day, it becomes expensive - and because it's in a tube you have the issue of struggling to get out every last drop. Still, it was the best I had found up to that point but I wanted one last ditch attempt to find something that REALLY works rather than just about works, and wasn't so expensive. That's when I ordered Moon Goo in the lavender scented extra strong version (haven't tried the standard strength one). I was worried that the baking soda in it would irritate my underarm skin, given how sensitive my skin is, and there were mixed reviews about that here. However I've been using it for two or three weeks now and I've not had any irritation or soreness yet, even when I use it after shaving my armpits. It smells absolutely gorgeously of lavender when you first put it on, though the smell does fade rather during the day. Best of all? It WORKS!! It's a deodorant, obviously, not an antiperspirant, so it won't stop you sweating. However when using this, my sweat doesn't smell. I mean, it really doesn't. This really works. And it lasts all day, and it survives exercise and working hard in the garden. It is an absolute game changer for me. And it comes in a metal pot, not plastic, and because it's a pot rather than a tube it will be easy to get the last bit out. And although you use it every day like a traditional antiperspirant, you only need a really small amount so one pot is going to last me ages, making it genuinely affordable. I've been using it two or three weeks now and I've barely made a dent in it, really. I just wash my hands then swipe two fingers over the top of it (it's a paste consistency) and rub that in to one armpit area, then repeat for the other armpit, and then wash my hands again to remove the residue. It has not stained any of my clothes. Also, unlike Nuud, Moon Goo worked for me immediately from the first time I used it, my body didn't need any time to adjust. Whether this was because my body had already adjusted to Nuud, and whether others might need some time to adjust to it for it to work for them, I have no idea. I suspect that when it comes to natural deodorants, what works for one person is not always going to work for everybody else. Lots of the products I tried that did not work at all for me seem to work for some others, judging from reviews. So I can't guarantee Moon Goo extra strong will work for you, and I can't guarantee the baking soda won't bother your skin even though it doesn't bother my very sensitive skin. But I can say categorically that it properly works for me, lasts all day, smells nice, and is economical because I only need a very small amount. I can also say that I will definitely buy more when I eventually run out!! This is far and away the best natural deodorant I have found for me. I did not receive any product in exchange for this review. I just saw Moon Goo when browsing desertcart, and bought it with my own money. It was well worth it. I wrote this review because my personal search for an effective and affordable natural deodorant that doesn't make me come out in lumps and isn't bad for the environment has been long and frustrating, and I thought this might help someone. Try Moon Goo. Review: Comparing with Space Cat from the same Awake Organics - I really liked this product! I used this for the last two months, and I think it would last two more for me. I decided to wait with the review of the company until I tried more than one product because I didn't love the first one, space cat but wanted to be fair. So here are my thoughts on both products in random order. I first bought Space Cat, because I had a breakout from the first soda bicarbonate -based natural deodorant I had just before, so I wanted to try something without it. (I don't remember the brand, it was a local product I got presented from a Bristol swag bag. It was really good against sweating, smelled amazing, but I had dry patches and redness, so I thought it might have been the soda bicarbonate). So, Space Cat was great for my skin, no breakouts, no itchiness, it was even hydrating I think. I didn't like the scent and how it mixed with my own smell I guess. But I think it's worth trying for sensitive skin! Another thing I noticed, is that i's very liquid when it's hot outside. And as it lasted me very long, it actually dried before I used up the whole pack. I think in 4 months or so. I didn't have that problem with Moon Goo at all. And my main problem was that it didn't help me with sweating that much. It was 60% effective for me I would say. So moving on to Moon Goo. I liked the texture better, it's a bit grainy thanks to the soda bicarbonate. In spite of the soda bicarbonate, it didn't give me any dry patches or redness. SO it might have been another ingredient my skin couldn't handle in the past. So that's a win I found out about this. The smell is amazing, much much better for my nose than Space Cat's. It was great on my skin, even if I end up sweating a bit, it still smells great, I don't mind if "I smell of it" for lack of better words. Moon goo works better against sweating for me, I would say 90% where I could only get 100% with traditional deodorants like Secret or Rexona. That's excellent for a natural deodorant. I think the price is justified, it lasts around 4 months for me. Also, I liked the name Space Cat, and Star Cloud too, but I don't like Moon Goo, because of goo sounding too much like goop... It's just one opinion, but I would applaud a name change. I will try Star Cloud in the future, and update this review!! ## Features - Natural deodorant balm, made in England – Handcrafted by Awake Organics, a sustainable indie brand.

This plastic-free solution is a winner for performance and scent. ⚠️ Critical Note: While highly effective, its alkaline nature may cause cumulative irritation for those with sensitive skin barriers, even if you don’t react during your first tub. ✅ Pros: 30hr odour control; no "detox" phase; no white marks; beautiful organic scent; eco-friendly tin lasts 3 months. ❌ Cons: Balm-to-powder texture can be grainy; pH shift may cause cumulative irritation for sensitive skin. Review For a long time, my relationship with my body was one of discomfort. Plagued by painful red lumps from standard antiperspirants, the spectre of breast cancer became an emotional driver that lead me to rethink what I was putting on my skin. I wasn’t just looking for a deodorant balm; I was looking for aluminium-free peace of mind. A Sensory Sanctuary Opening this natural plastic-free deodorant is like stepping into a moonlit garden. The scent is grounding and organic: Lavender provides a cool, fresh floral base, while Lemongrass adds a sharp, invigorating zest. It turns a morning chore into a moment of aromatic therapy. 🌿🪻🍋 Performance & Application This Awake Organics DEO is a powerhouse. It proved that natural odour control isn’t a myth, providing an incredible 30 hours of protection from one application. Interestingly, I never experienced a "detox period" - it worked perfectly from day one. The Beeswax provides a "stay-put" reliability, ensuring the balm doesn't melt away. While it allows you to sweat healthily (it is not an antiperspirant), the clay manages moisture well without leaving white marks on clothes. One 60g tin is great value, lasting about 3 months. The Challenge: Skin Barrier Health I did not experience any skin sensitivity with my first tub. However, over time, my underarms became persistently itchy. My research after an gentler natural deodorant also caused irritation, revealed that even in bicarb-free or magnesium-based formulas, the rise in skin pH - though slower than Bicarbonate - can be intolerable for certain skin types. While Magnesium Oxide is less abrasive, some simply cannot tolerate that alkaline shift in the long run. My Path Forward The insights I gained led me to create my own custom, oil-based balm. Taking what I learned from this experience, I kept the Beeswax and Lavender, but switched the active ingredient to Zinc Oxide—a gentle, skin-barrier-supporting mineral. I found success with this approach. Verdict: If you don't have a specific sensitivity to pH shifts, this is a top-tier, eco-friendly natural deodorant. It is powerful and effective. Just listen closely to your skin; if you are prone to sensitivity, your barrier, may eventually need the gentlest minerals available. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.mx/products/161105928-sensitive-skin-formula](https://www.desertcart.mx/products/161105928-sensitive-skin-formula) --- *Product available on Desertcart Mexico* *Store origin: MX* *Last updated: 2026-07-29*
