Product Review: Now Brand Natural Long-Lasting Deodorant Cream

Cheaper and Better Than Lavilin Natural Deodorant

Amber S.
If you are looking for a great natural deodorant that is both safe and effective, I highly recommend NOW Brand natural Long-Lasting Deodorant Cream. If you are a big fan of Lavilin natural deodorant, you will love the NOW version of this zinc oxide long-lasting deodorant.

NOW Long-Lasting Deodorant Cream can be used both under your arms and on your feet. The neat thing about this deodorant is that it lasts longer than regular deodorants, even deodorants that are not natural. Only one application is needed to keep you feeling dry and odor free for up to a week or more. It is also cheaper than other natural deodorants and only the tiniest amount is needed, rather than large daily applications.

If you have been purchasing Lavilin deodorant in the past as we have, you are in luck. NOW Long-Lasting Deodorant cream contains the same ingredients and works just as well as Lavilin, but is so much cheaper. While the average price of a large .44oz package of Lavilin will run between fifteen and twenty five dollars, the cost of the 2.3oz package of NOW Long-Lasting Deodorant Cream is only about six to seven dollars. This is an incredible deal and is much less wasteful because it uses less packaging.

NOW's natural Long-Lasting Deodorant Cream is non-toxic and safe to use. It contains no aluminum and no preservatives. The ingredients include: Zinc Oxide, Talc, Rice Starch, Calendula Extract, Arnica Extract, Vitamin E d-alpha, Ascorbyl Palmitate, Citric Acid, Grapefruit Extract in a base of Safflower Oil, Beeswax, Lanolin, and Natural Fragrances. There are no warnings listed for this product.

How does it work? Simply apply NOW brand natural Long-Lasting Deodorant Cream to your underarms or feet after you have showered and washed with soap. Only a small amount of the product is needed to cover the area you wish to deodorize. Using your fingers, rub the cream into your skin. This long-lasting cream will work for several days to keep you odor-free, sometimes for more than a week.

As a longtime user of Lavilin natural deodorant cream, my husband was very excited to find NOW Long-Lasting Deodorant Cream. He is amazed at the price and because we try to remain environmentally conscious, we are very pleased with the packaging. NOW deodorant cream comes packaged only in its recyclable plastic jar, unlike Lavilin which uses a large plastic jar packaged inside of a cardboard box that is also wrapped in plastic and contains only about 1/5 the amount of deodorant as the NOW brand.

If you are looking for a great natural deodorant, we highly recommend NOW natural Long-Lasting Deodorant Cream. It is much cheaper than Lavilin and also cheaper than other deodorants. It is quite strong and is the only thing tough enough to keep my husband's bad odor at bay. The price is excellent, you get more, and it uses minimal packaging.

    Hi Amber, your review was great, but it is important to note that the product directions tell you to apply at night and wash off the next morning. It is not recommended to wear it all day.
    Cheers,

    While the ingredients are very similar there is one huge difference... Lavilin's first ingredient is Petroatum. The NOW version may be a safer product and worth having to apply more often since it does not contain this hazardous petrolium product. Lavilin is still avaliable and out west it is avaliable everywhere that NOW is sold.
