How often should I apply Vanilla + Citrus Deodorant?

We always say less is more! Our formulas are incredibly concentrated so you only need 2-3 light swipes (or dabs) per underarm for all-day odor protection.

Is Vanilla + Citrus Deodorant safe for sensitive skin?

The Primally Pure Vanilla + Citrus Deodorant contains a minimal, mindfully-balanced dose of naturally-mined baking soda (finer grain = less abrasive) to protect from odor and irritation. While baking soda can be abrasive for some skin types, many customers with sensitive skin use this formula with great success. If you have a known baking soda sensitivity, we recommend a patch test or trying our Baking Soda Free Deodorant.

What makes Primally Pure deodorant actually clean?

Our commitment to 'actually clean' means setting our own standards: we refuse to formulate with artificial fragrance, aluminum, parabens or other harmful chemicals that disrupt your body's natural balance. Instead, our formulas are mindfully made with a nutrient-rich blend of biocompatible, nourishing ingredients like grass-fed tallow, essential oils and activated charcoal to work with your body, not against it, providing powerful odor defense and holistic wellness without compromise.

What is the texture/consistency of Vanilla + Citrus Deodorant?

Our deodorant has a solid yet soft texture that’s designed to glide effortlessly across the skin without tugging. Unlike gel or spray deodorants, it doesn’t feel wet or sticky, just velvety and nourishing. For a silky-smooth application, let the deodorant warm up against your skin for a second or two before applying as it softens slightly on contact.

What does Vanilla + Citrus Deodorant smell like?

The Vanilla + Citrus Deodorant has an uplifting, sweet, and soothing aroma from a synergistic blend of organic Wild Orange, Vanilla, and Sandalwood essential oils. This delightful combination of bright citrus along with warming and woodsy notes creates a refreshing, non-toxic aroma designed to boost your mood and promote a "summer state of mind."

From the PP Community

We always say less is more! Our formulas are incredibly concentrated so you only need 2-3 light swipes (or dabs) per underarm for all-day odor protection.
The Primally Pure Vanilla + Citrus Deodorant contains a minimal, mindfully-balanced dose of naturally-mined baking soda (finer grain = less abrasive) to protect from odor and irritation. While baking soda can be abrasive for some skin types, many customers with sensitive skin use this formula with great success. If you have a known baking soda sensitivity, we recommend a patch test or trying our Baking Soda Free Deodorant.
Our commitment to 'actually clean' means setting our own standards: we refuse to formulate with artificial fragrance, aluminum, parabens or other harmful chemicals that disrupt your body's natural balance. Instead, our formulas are mindfully made with a nutrient-rich blend of biocompatible, nourishing ingredients like grass-fed tallow, essential oils and activated charcoal to work with your body, not against it, providing powerful odor defense and holistic wellness without compromise.
Our deodorant has a solid yet soft texture that’s designed to glide effortlessly across the skin without tugging. Unlike gel or spray deodorants, it doesn’t feel wet or sticky, just velvety and nourishing. For a silky-smooth application, let the deodorant warm up against your skin for a second or two before applying as it softens slightly on contact.
The Vanilla + Citrus Deodorant has an uplifting, sweet, and soothing aroma from a synergistic blend of organic Wild Orange, Vanilla, and Sandalwood essential oils. This delightful combination of bright citrus along with warming and woodsy notes creates a refreshing, non-toxic aroma designed to boost your mood and promote a "summer state of mind."

The best clean deo for my B. O. !

"Primally Pure brings life to that saying, “you get what you pay for,” and since I want non-toxic deo I choose Primally Pure. While I have favorite scents, I haven’t found one yet that I don’t like. My favorite is Lavender, followed by Bergamot/Eucalyptus, and Tea Tree. Solid choices. I wear this deo almost every day and find it still last me a while. I am a happy returning customer. Start with their trio sampler if you’re uncertain. But, if you want clean Deo, look no further."

— Kevin L. (5/5)

This is the one I

"This is the one I keep coming back to. This scent is also my favorite though I've tried others. I find that it does transfer to my clothes, and though it can be removed, it takes effort. I am going to experiment with applying it an hour before getting dressed and see if that helps. But even with the less than ideal transfer, I would still give it 5 stars. It is hard to find a non-toxic deodorant that smells good, goes on easily, and works."

Vanilla + Citrus Deodorant

"Primally Pure vanilla + citrus deodorant is the best when it comes to clean ingredients, nice smelling and works in controlling odor. The smell is amazing yet not overpowering. Very fresh scent and I am 100% at peace knowing I'm using a clean product. Thank you Primally Pure!"

— Elizabeth E. (5/5)

Best Deoderant Ever!

"I love the smell of the Vanilla+citrus deode)orant. I have sensitive skin but it applies on so nicely with no irritation. A little goes a long way. I've tried alot of non toxic deodorants and this is the one for me. I will keep on rebuying. A gem!"

— Carina F. (5/5)

"I love this deodorant. Switched a year or more ago as I am slowly moving out toxic products for safer ones. I have not regretted this switch once. The smell is amazing but I continue to be a customer because it works and does not give me any uncomfortable side effects. My whole family now uses one or more of these products."

— Cristina (5/5)

Love this product!

"I LOVE this scent. I swear I smell like those creamsicles. It also works fantastically. No BO smell, even after 12-hour shifts as a nurse and then going to the gym! 10/10 recommend! This is my 3rd refilling deodorant from Primarlly Pure and I don't plan on stopping!"

— Emmeline L. (5/5)

I ended up purchasing 2.

"I ended up purchasing 2. I had tried my son's after trying several natural products. So far this is my favorite and I will definitely continue using it. It goes on so easy. It lasts all day which the other ones I tried didn't. I feel that I was having breakthrough body odor and it's not happening with this brand, so I will definitely continue purchasing. Absolutely love it and highly recommend it!"

— Laura D. (5/5)

I switched to this company

"I switched to this company after finding out that my so-called “clean” deodorant company that I had been using sold out to Procter & Gamble. The scent is amazing and it lasts all day. The only feedback I could give is that the deodorant tends to make a slight mess all over the packaging that they currently have so I have to wipe it down after using it. I believe it’s due to the fact that this deodorant is a little more soft. But that is a price that I am willing to pay for a deodorant that doesn’t affect your endocrine and that is genuinely good for your body."

— Jasmyn S. (5/5)

Vanilla Citrus deodorant smells really

"Vanilla Citrus deodorant smells really nice. I live in Florida the humidity is horrible here. This is my second round. It works. No re-apply required. And the ingredients appears all healthy and does not irritate my sensitive skin. Thanks!"

Amazing Product

"I purchased the Vanilla + Citrus Deodorant hoping it would work better than the countless other deodorant brands I have bought over the years. I am happy to say that it lived up to the reviews. I threw out all the others and ordered another Primally Pure Deodorant. No looking back. Smells great also!"

Q&A

Is it typical to experience irritation when switching to this deodorant from conventional deodorant? Experiencing redness and irritation.: We are sorry to hear that! Please reach out to [email protected] for further help with your regimen! XO, Pure Team
Hi! Would the essential oils in the deodorant make your skin more sensitive to the sun? Is that something to keep in mind while using it in the summer?: They should not! Everyone's skin is different but overall our customers do not find this to be the case since it is such a small amount. :)
I purchased the Vanilla and Citrus deodorant. It does everything I hoped... however are all the deodorants grainy? The grainy substance in mine rubs my pits raw and irritates them. I was curious if another scent possibly without the grainy ingredients would be best for me or is this a quality issue?: Oh no, we are sorry to hear this! It should not be grainy like that. Please reach out to [email protected] for further assistance. :)
Tallow is marked as the 3rd ingredient. I’ve never seen beef fat in a natural deodorant before. Is there a vegan option?: While we believe tallow to be incredibly important to skin health, we understand that it may not appeal to everyone and want you to know that we offer a number of skincare products that do not contain tallow and would be considered to be vegan-friendly. At this time we aren't offering a vegan-friendly deodorant, however we've been working on a better solution to this as we've continued to receive feedback from customers. So stay tuned and thank you! We are so appreciative that you took the time reach out with your request and we want you to know that we take all customer feedback to heart. XO, Pure Team
Is the deodorant container plastic?: Thanks for reaching out! As it turns out, our deodorant tubes are considered a Level 5 plastic due to the high temperature threshold they carry and they are recyclable through most curbside programs. :) We are constantly brainstorming innovative ways to cut back on waste while still providing the highest quality products to our customers. Your feedback greatly helps us in this process. Thanks for being conservation-minded - we love that about our customers! XO, Pure Team
