Dove Refillable Deodorant Starter Kit 0% Aluminum Cucumber & Green Tea Aluminum Free Deodorant 1.13 oz

*This is a review retraction update. Product proved to be defective after a weeks use. Previous reviews are correct that the stick breaks with too much pressure. Fact is not much pressure is needed at all to fracture the contents. Not worth the money.* I’ve used aluminum free deod for a while now so I’m used to the difference between aluminum and aluminum free. A lot of comments stating ppl didn’t think this item was great because they still sweat. You have to convert to aluminum free over a cpl of months. Your body requires a period of adjustment. This deod is very well made and works well in my opinion. I live a very active lifestyle and run around a lot. I’m not having an issues with this deod not working. It holds up very well. Smells is subtle & nice. Packaging is modern and well weighted. Haven’t had an issue of the stick breaking off like others said though. I wouldn’t man handle it but it’s sturdy. The lack of continuous plastic disposable packaging is nice. I’ll be placing this item on a subscription so long as it’s available on Amazon. Moisturizing and pleasant deod.

El producto en si es bueno, bonita fragancia y la textura muy agradable, el problema?? La barra del desodorante se desprende y queda inútil el estuche

The little ball of deodorant doesn’t stay on the case. Every time I try to swipe some on it melts off. The little replacement base doesn’t come out, that’s very secure. The actual deodorant melts off/crumbles off the case. I really wanted to like this product!!! Edit: I had to lower my rating because I had decided to try to continue to use it because I didn’t want it to go to waste but after trying it for a week I have a terrible rash on my underarms. I am so uncomfortable and stopped using it immediately. Please do not buy this product. I don’t even have sensitive skin.

Loved the refillable factor; not so much the metal base, not sure how that would be for getting through airport security. Seemed to work well to replace the Adidas product I have used for years. Issue is that it broke off during my second day of use. Not a fan of it hitting the floor or having to use my fingers. So basically wasted my money

I was so excited to get this - I really try to minimize the amount of trash I send to the landfill. I saw the potential problem right away. There’s no support for the deodorant refill. So within a few days it broke and fell off and went flying across the bathroom floor…had to throw the pieces away. Wasted money, wasted product. They need to create a reusable holder that looks and works just like the disposable one. Then I will definitely buy again.

Great idea, terrible execution! This deodorant is supposed to be refillable, but the design is flawed. You attach a heavy and small brick of deodorant to a hollow base so its top heavy. Unlike a traditional deodorant that you roll up, all of the deodorant is exposed. The deodorant broke off the dispenser on my second use. It also felt like I got a lot less deodorant than a traditional dove cool and fresh dispenser. A lot better design before Ill consider buying again.

Wanted to like this. There is nothing wrong with the scent, or deodorant in and of itself. The product packaging has to improve. It broke off the base the second time using. Which leaves me holding the whole stick without any applicator. I bought to reduce package waste thinking a refillable system would be nice. I would make my own and keep in a jar if I appreciated having to wash my hands after applying, which is what I am forced to do right now. It was a good idea just did not hit the mark

The deodorant was fine. But the container was horrible. This was bought for traveling. Wont work because the lid wont stay on. I threw it away and will buy the regular

I took this with me on a short trip. I noticed how there wasnt any protection along the shaft of the refill, so I was very careful and used very little pressure. It still snapped off, broke, and fell to the ground the very first time I used it. It kept falling every time Id try to apply deodorant until the shape could no longer be wedged into the base disk. I had to just smear it all over my underarms. I threw it away as soon as I was ready to check out of my hotel. What a waste. I use this deodorant regularly and it performs well, and the original packaging is perfect! This travel/refill nonsense just needs to be discontinued immediately.

Unfortunately it just completely broke off the base after 2x using. It does smell good but hoping this is just a 1 time thing. I ordered another.
