When it comes to natural deodorant, one size doesn’t fit all. That’s why Woohoo offers a range of different deodorant strengths.
Because whether you sweat like a champion or have skin that reacts to just about everything, the right formula can make allllll the difference.
But what actually is deodorant strength? And how do you know which one is right for you? Let’s break it down.
Extra Strength: The Power Players
For those who take sweating seriously, our Extra Strength natural deodorant formulas are packed with the most powerful natural odour-fighting ingredients (like bicarb soda and supercharged essential oils) to keep BO at bay from dawn ‘til dusk.
These deodorants have been tested under the sweatiest, smelliest conditions and are tradie, athlete, and fire-fighter approved.
If you:
✅ Work up a serious sweat (think gym junkies, hot yoga lovers, or manual labour warriors)
✅ Live in the tropics or just run hot
✅ Want an all-day, all-night, ironclad freshness guarantee
...then Extra Strength is your best bet.
Extra Strength natural deodorant scents to try:
- Wild – A bold citrus scent and our best-selling BO-fighter.
- Tux – A sophisticated blend of bergamot and patchouli.
- Pop – Energising lime and grapefruit, crisp but not overpowering.
Regular Strength: Just-Right Freshness
Not too strong, not too soft, Regular Strength natural deodorants hit that sweet spot. They contain a lower amount of bicarb soda than Extra Strength, making them a great middle-ground for most people. Plus, their essential oil blends are milder but still pack enough of a punch to keep BO in check.
Perfect if you:
✅ Sweat a little, but not buckets
✅ Want a deodorant that works without overpowering your natural scent
✅ Have slightly sensitive skin but still like a little bicarb action
Regular Strength natural deodorant scents to try:
- Urban – A subtle floral-vanilla blend that’s fresh yet understated.
- Surf – A tropical, fruity cocktail in deodorant form (minus the hangover).
Sensitive Strength: Gentle but Mighty
For those who break out at the mere thought of bicarb soda, our Sensitive Strength formulas are here to save your pits. These bicarb-free deodorants use a different balance of odour-fighting ingredients (like magnesium) to keep you fresh without any irritation.
Choose Sensitive Strength if you:
✅ Have very sensitive skin or a known bicarb intolerance
✅ Want a super gentle formula but still need effective odour control
✅ Prefer something subtle and non-irritating for everyday wear
Sensitive natural deodorant scents to try:
- Mellow – Our gentlest formula. No bicarb, no essential oils, no fragrance, no worries.
- Tango – A citrusy tangerine and lemon dream for a fresh, energising boost.
- Birthday – Because even sensitive pits deserve to smell like cake 🙂 - this one’s a limited edition and won’t be here for long (and this one’s Extra Strength too!).
Smelly tip: No matter which formula you choose, a little Woohoo goes a long way. Our deodorants are concentrated, so all you need is a pea-sized amount (for pastes) or a couple of swipes (for sticks) to keep BO at bay without clogging pores or blocking sweat glands.
Another smelly tip: If you’re new to the world of natural deodorant, you might want to give your pits the best start with an armpit detox. Using our Armpit Detox Mask before making the switch helps draw out impurities, rebalances the skin and maximises the effectiveness and strength of your new aluminium-free deodorant.
