In a market of seemingly endless options, selecting a deodorant and antiperspirant should not be an overwhelming task. The choice between a deodorant, an antiperspirant, a natural deodorant, or even a combination of the types depends on your lifestyle, body, and personal preference. Plus, there is the conversation surrounding the safety of certain ingredients, and efficacy of all-natural options.
We founded Helmm with the idea and promise to provide high-quality, effective products that are good for your pits and the planet. We are the only company to offer all three options of deodorant formulas: Antiperspirants, Deodorants, and Natural Deodorants. But what goes into each formula? What makes one different from the others? Which one is best for me?
Our Sweat Concierge experts have broken down all that Helmm offers in our Helmm Glossary, so you can stop sweating the small stuff and start your next adventure.
Natural Deodorant
Natural deodorant is categorized by its all-natural ingredients and lack of sweat-blocking aluminum. The term “natural” is, unfortunately, unregulated — and we’ve seen countless companies try to label their formulas as all-natural without explaining what goes into them.
Like a standard deodorant, natural deodorants cover-up or mask odor with fragrance and natural ingredients. Many companies use baking soda, essential oil fragrance, silver, or other organic ingredients to mask your body’s natural scent.

Antiperspirant and Deodorant
Antiperspirant and Deodorant is a combination formula intended to mask body odor and reduce perspiration over time. This type of product uses an active aluminum compound to limit your sweating and prevent excessive perspiration. This is typically paired with a fragrance to neutralize odor.
An antiperspirant and deodorant is your most common, sometimes most effective option available. Our antiperspirant and deodorant formula provides maximum level protection against odor and sweat, for up to 24 hours.
