Description

Herbal Deodorant that actually works for the full spectrum of stinky.

Deodorant Cream is our original aluminum-free, baking soda-based deodorant that helps neutralize odor while allowing your body to sweat naturally. Instead of plugging sweat glands like an antiperspirant, it absorbs moisture and creates an environment that's less welcoming to odor-causing microbes.

Arrowroot and baking soda help keep underarms dry, while coconut oil and beeswax create a smooth, nourishing cream that glides on easily. The original scent blends bergamot, clary sage, black pepper, grapefruit, and tea tree into a clean, herbal aroma that's become a Fat and the Moon classic.Handmade in Northern California and available in reusable glass jars, aluminum tins, and travel-friendly sizes.

Best for:
Everyday odor control
Moderate to strong body odor
Those switching away from conventional antiperspirants
Fans of herbal, essential oil-based scents
People comfortable using baking soda deodorants

Ritual

 Warm a pea-sized amount between your fingertips and massage into clean, dry underarms.

A little goes a long way. Reapply as needed, especially during hot weather or after heavy activity.

For extra moisture absorption, layer one of our Bod Powders over Deodorant Cream.

Shelf Life

Lasts 6 months. Store in a cool and dry place. Always use a clean dry hand or tool when using. Avoid contact with water. Our products are organic and freshly made skin food. We do not use toxins that make things last forever.

Details
Sweating helps regulate body temperature and supports the skin's natural functions. Deodorant Cream works alongside that process by helping manage odor instead of trying to stop perspiration altogether.

Unlike conventional antiperspirants that rely on aluminum salts to block sweat glands, Deodorant Cream allows sweat to escape while arrowroot absorbs excess moisture and baking soda helps neutralize odor. The result is underarms that feel fresh without interfering with your body's natural rhythm.

Because this formula contains baking soda, some people with very sensitive underarms may prefer our Sensitive Pit Cream, which is baking soda-free.

Good for:
Aluminum-free odor protection
Moderate to strong body odor
Everyday use
Transitioning away from antiperspirants
Essential oil lovers
Natural body care routines

Not ideal for:
Extremely sensitive underarms
Those with known baking soda sensitivity
People looking for an antiperspirant
Those seeking a fragrance-free deodorant

Heads Up: Deodorant Cream contains baking soda. Some people with sensitive skin may experience irritation. If redness or discomfort occurs, discontinue use and switch to our Sensitive Pit Cream, which is baking soda–free.

FAQ
Why do some natural deodorants stop working?
Your body's odor can change over time due to hormones, stress, diet, medications, or seasonal shifts. If your usual deodorant isn't performing the same way, it doesn't necessarily mean your body has "gotten used to it." Sometimes switching scents or pairing Deodorant Cream with one of our Bod Powders can help.
Does Deodorant Cream stain clothing?
Because Deodorant Cream is made with nourishing oils and beeswax, applying too much product may leave residue on clothing. A pea-sized amount is usually all you need.
Can I use Deodorant Cream after shaving?
If your skin tolerates baking soda well, yes. However, freshly shaved underarms can be more sensitive. If irritation occurs, wait until the skin has settled or try our Sensitive Pit Cream instead.
How much Deodorant Cream should I use?
Less than you think. A pea-sized amount per underarm is typically enough for all-day odor control. Using more won't necessarily improve performance and may increase the chance of residue.
Can I use Deodorant Cream anywhere besides my underarms?
Deodorant Cream was formulated specifically for underarms. For other areas prone to moisture and friction, we recommend our Day Moon Bod Powder, Artemis at Dawn Bod Powder, or Yoni Duster.
Does this act as an anti-perspirant as well?
Our Deodorant Cream is not an antiperspirant. This formula supports odor management without interfering with the body’s natural sweating process. Most people find that they sweat less after ditching antiperspirants for awhile. If you're looking for less moisture, we suggest using a bit of our Bod Powder on top the Deo to help absorb sweat.
How long does the odor protection last?
Most find that the Deodorant Creams works all day, but everyone's bodies and lifestyles are different. Unfortunately, if you're stressed a lot during the day, you tend to stink more (stinking and sweating don't always go together). Pit BO can be neutralized on contact with our Deo Cream, so we suggest keeping one of our Lil' Deo's in your bag for re-application if needed.
I'm going through pre-menopause and suffer from horrible hot flashes that leave me feeling like stinky sweat. Can I use this everywhere like a lotion?
Our Deodorant Cream contains baking soda, which could be irritating to your skin if applied all over your bod. We recommend using Yoni Duster, Day Moon Bod Powder, or Artemis at Dawn Bod Powder to absorb moisture any undesired odors.
Is this safe for children?
Yes, but if you do notice any irritation you might try the Sensitive Pit Cream instead. Some bodies are sensitive to the baking soda in our regular Deo Cream.
