I’ve spent four years wearing this deodorant on and off and can confirm that evolvetogether hits all of the factors I look for in a deodorant. For starters, it’s made with natural ingredients. Instead of potentially harsh baking soda, aluminum, and talc, this deodorant uses tapioca starch to soak up sweat and moisture. There’s also DeoPlex, a plant-based sugarcane that neutralizes bad odors, while glycerin moisturizes and prevent under-arm irritation. Panthenol also hydrates my underarms and provides a smooth feeling to my skin and helps the stick glide across my underarms easily.

Most importantly, the odor protection is on point! OK if you are from the South like I am then you know that even if we shave our underarms sometimes it’s so hot and humid out that we inevitably get a little smelly. Not the case with evolvetogether. I’ve worn this deodorant walking 5ks around my neighborhood, on the treadmill, during long cross-country flights, and I’ve never felt self-conscious about my smell. (My mom is also very honest and would have told me if I ever have an odor issue, so I know evolvetogether works well for me.)

As much as I love fun colors and prints, in New York I’m almost always wearing something black because it’s easy to select an outfit. evolvetogether deodorant glides on clear and doesn’t leave behind embarrassing white marks on my dark clothing which is a major relief on laundry day.

Bonus: While this doesn’t impact the quality of evolvetogether products, I’d be remiss if I didn’t highlight that each purchase supports a small, AAPI woman-owned business which is always a win in my book.

As for the cons, it’s really minimal. Heavy sweaters like runners will likely need a traditional antiperspirant to keep their pits truly dry. However, for daily activities this is one of my long-time favorites.
