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

I purchased this product because I liked the regular style with the turn / click base, but really liked the environmentally conscious refill aspects of this one, so I purchased it to try it out. First try, I put it together which was super easy, and then attempted to apply it to my armpits. The stick broke off of the holder, right at the base. It was a clean break, so I couldnt try popping it back in. There isnt a tube for it, so I would have to hold the actual deodorant to apply it without the holder. Messy fingers, no thanks. Great idea, but poor design. I tried to salvage it by sticking it in my old click/turn deodorant. Doesnt have the same shape, so that didnt work either.

I like the scent , I like the feel of the deodorant, I love Dove! But this product is a dud . I bought 3 of the kits and gave 2 of them as Christmas presents to my sisters. I kept 1 for myself and I’m not happy with it . The deodorant stick broke in just 2 weeks after use . I complained to customer service and they replaced the stick with 2 , both of which also broke. I bought another kit at a reduced rate , thank goodness , and I’m going to see if perhaps I just got a defective base . More later .

Very comfortable fit, nice to hold. Good consistency. But! Its not the same as regular aluminum deodorant. It works poorly. Unfortunately I wont be buying this yet.

Yes the sent is amazing it’s a great idea but the product design itself is faulty. the entire deodorant that you use sticks out so it gets scraped with the cap if you’re not careful. The cap doesn’t stay on in a bag. And After 6 uses the stick broke off of the bottom part of the case. I had to use my hand to put it on. Ans buy a new deodorant. I didn’t use any crazy force.

I used the deodorant for 2 days and it broke off and I couldn’t use it. It needs something to put in the middle to be stronger. I did write the company to explained what happened. I understand that it’s new and needs to be upgraded.

I thought this product would be great save on excess packaging, contains no aluminum and that Dove beautiful scent. I used it everyday for 1 week it glides on no pulling, to my surprise it was held in place by tabs made of product and in wound up on my countertop broken. I hope I can get this product again once they fix that defect.

I liked the look and idea…But the deodorant broke off the base the first time I tried to use it. There’s nothing really holding it to the base to rub on your underarm!!! Just wasted that amount of money!!

My package came half open, the product itself was still sealed so I still gave it a try. I got pink jasmine scent which I liked but it could be too strong for some ppl. I liked the size, great for throwing in your purse without taking up too much space. However, T the top to the case easily pops off with the slightest touch. I mean literally a soft breeze and the top is coming off. I used this deodorant 1x. The second time I went to use it, the entire bar of deodorant fell off the base attachment. I dont know if I had a defective one or if it was the soft texture of the product that caused it. Either way I will not be repurchasing.

I love the idea of a deodorant that reduces plastic waste. There are a couple of things to note and one thing that Dove should create. First, the deodorant block will snap off if youre not careful to maintain a 90 degree angle with your skin. Second there is some plastic, the cap and base for a new cartridge, that Dove says is recyclable but doesnt carry a recycle mark. Some recycle centers wont accept the plastic without this marking. Finally, the metal base for the deodorant is simply too small for a mans hand. I have to pinch the base between my thumb and finger tips like Im holding a decorative mini sandwitch at a party. The mens version of this product has the same base. It just replaces the white cap with a manly black cap...

I love the idea of reducing plastics and carbon emissions, however the deodorant itself broke off of the holder after a couple of weeks of gentle use. Since the entire thing, about 2 inches, is exposed , it is much to easy to break it off.
