Absolutely brilliant product

I love this product - I have the antiperspirant and it keeps me dry all day long. Smells gorgeous too (bergamot and amber is my favourite and the one I now solely have on repeat). I won’t be going back. Perfect in every way

Really impressed with Make Waves

I’ve been really impressed with Make Waves deodorant which I have been using for nearly 2 years. It smells lovely, feels fresh and, most importantly, keeps me feeling fresh and confident throughout the day. I also love that it doesn’t feel heavy or sticky when applied.
It’s become one of those products I reach for every day, and I’ll definitely be buying it again and again. A great deodorant that actually does what you want it to do! 💕

The best sustainable antiperspirant

Wanted to switch to more sustainable products and have really struggled to find sustainable deodorant/antiperspirant products. Many eco friendly deodorant dont work for me often causing armpit rashes and skin reactions. Make waves works perfectly and is the best product. The subscription makes the process even better and the fact they fit in the letterbox makes delivery easy and no hassle!

Refillable cases are definitely the way…

Refillable cases are definitely the way forward. Not only does this work really well but it smells lovely, the subscription means I don't have to think about buying more when I need it. No hesitation in recommending.

Brilliant product that works!

Easy to order product. Like the concept of being more conscious in choices for hygiene. My old anti perspirant was making me itch. Swapping to Make Waves gives me a product that actually works brilliantly, is friendly to my skin and smells great. I have already ordered refills from the great selection on offer.

Survived a week in Rome!

I changed to Make Waves from another natural deodrant because I was finding it too soft and messy.
Make Waves is amazing! No mess, no fuss in changing the refills and they smell great. I survived a week in Rome during Summer using it with zero nasty niffs! I wont use anything else again.

So happy I found this deodorant

So happy I found this deodorant! I’ve been conscious of wanting to use natural deodorants for a while and have trialled lots of different ones, but none like this! None that actually smell amazing, stop sweat and don’t leave messy white marks. And the subscription means I don’t need to think about it, it just turns up just as I run out! Thanks so much guys!

Make waves antiperspirant is brillant.

Make waves antiperspirant is brillant.
It is 100% natural, the smells are good, and i dont sweat.
This is the only one that works for myself. I have tried many 100% natural antiperspirants, and this is the best one out.
Delivery is quick.
Subscription is what im using and its great as i dont have to remind myself to buy more .

Most if not all natural underarm…

Most if not all natural underarm products I have tried are deodorants which I can’t use because sweat runs down my arm when wearing, making me feel uncomfortable and my clothes damp. I far prefer the Make Waves antiperspirant as it solves this problem and the Bergamot smells beautiful.

Gentle, effective and no white marks!

I just started using the Make Waves Pink Pomegranate Deodorant two weeks ago and I really like it. The case/applicator is sturdy, aesthetically-pleasing, and really easy to fill. The deodorant is solid and glides on the skin. It feels gentle and is non-greasy. It doesn’t flake or ‘pill’ or leave white marks on clothes. The Pink Pomegranate scent reminds me of cola! (But in a good, fresh way!) I am keen to try the other scents as well. The price point is slightly higher than other natural deodorants that I’ve tried but I don’t mind as it lasts longer, works better, and is mess-free. Make Waves deodorant has been the best natural, non-aluminium deodorant I’ve used.

Make waves deodorant

They have regular delivery's if you subscribe, they're always trying to improve their scents by asking for reviews and asking for scent recommendations.
The deodorant stops me from sweating when i exercise and I still smell nice at the end of every the day.
