The Natural Deodorant Balm That Actually Works (Even in Extreme Heat)
Meet the balm that was made to be tested on your sweatiest, toughest days. Hot Yoga. Summer runs. Mountain hikes. Those workouts that leave you drenched. Don’t waste it on calm, cool days; this balm was born for the heat.
One of our first testers put it to the ultimate trial:
"10h trail run, 2000m climb, amber alert for a heatwave… and I did not smell at all 😯 🔮✨ The texture is silky, no residues, with a delicate natural scent. Truly the best 100% natural deodorant out there 😍😍😍"
And here’s why it works so brilliantly without baking soda, without aluminium, and without irritation.
Why Odour Happens
Sweat itself doesn’t smell.
-
Eccrine sweat (all over your body) = mostly salty water.
-
Apocrine sweat (underarms, groin) = rich in proteins and lipids.
When bacteria like Corynebacterium and Staphylococcus break down that protein-rich sweat, they release sulfur and fatty acids—the molecules we know as body odour.
How Plants Keep You Fresh (Without Baking Soda)
Our balm blends Calendula, Nettles, Burdock Root, and Cleavers, a botanical team that supports your skin’s microbiome:
🌱 Selective antimicrobial action suppresses odour-causing bacteria, not the good ones.
🌱 Microbiome balance leaves space for friendly bacteria (S. epidermidis, Cutibacterium) to thrive.
🌱 Gentle and soothing, no alkaline irritation from baking soda, just calm, nourished skin.
It’s like feeding your gut with fibre, nourishing the good so they outcompete the bad. Only this time, it’s your underarms.
Why We Don’t Block Sweat
Sweat is your body’s natural river of release. Antiperspirants use aluminium salts to plug sweat ducts, essentially saying: “Keep my toxins inside me.”
We believe in the opposite. Our balm honours your body’s natural processes. You sweat, you cleanse, you release. And we simply remove the odour, naturally.
✨ No blocked pores.
✨ No baking soda burn.
✨ No artificial masking.
Just plants, working in harmony with your body.
The Plant Voices Within the Balm
🌿 Cleavers – the gentle shield. Deer birth in my fields, knowing I cloak them in safety. On your skin, I quietly mask scent, protecting without force.
🌿 Burdock – the purifier. I help sweat flow freely, easing inflammation and keeping skin clear.
🌿 Nettle – the balancer. I meet protein-rich sweat before bacteria can, keeping odour from ever forming.
🌼 Calendula – the harmoniser. I nurture the good bacteria, soothe the skin, and keep peace beneath your arms.
Together, we restore balance, protect your skin, and honour your body’s wisdom.
The Difference You’ll Feel
✔️ Stays fresh, even in extreme sweat.
✔️ Soothes sensitive skin.
✔️ 100% natural, plant-powered.
✔️ A deodorant you’ll trust enough to gift.
Put it to the test in your sweatiest, most demanding moments. This isn’t just another deodorant. It’s the one your body has been waiting for.
SHIPPING + RETURNS
THE RATHER IMPORTANT BITS
This rather lovely piece ships directly from our brand partner - we work with independent brands who are absolutely brilliant and work frightfully hard to create beautiful things.
SHIPPING DESTINATIONS
Now, here's the thing - our wonderful brand partners ship to lots of different places, but not all of them can ship worldwide.
Some are brilliant at international shipping, others prefer to keep things closer to home.
At checkout, you'll see exactly where this particular brand can send your goodies.
We're terribly sorry, but shipping costs do vary rather wildly depending on where you are in the world. The exact figures pop up at checkout - no nasty surprises!
RETURNS
You have 14 days to return items.
Now, we absolutely adore our brand partners - they work incredibly hard and we do try to support them as much as we possibly can. So I'm rather afraid we have to pass the return postage costs back to you. Frightfully sorry about that!
🌍 PLEASE CHOOSE THOUGHTFULLY:
Our wonderful partners put their hearts into everything they make.
Ordering multiple sizes to try at home is rather hard on our planet and makes things jolly difficult for these brilliant independent creators.
When in doubt, do ask us first!
The brands we work with all have a chat option, and they love to chat!

We Have Lots More Like This.........
Hello, we are Sostter....
Sostter began, as all good ideas do, with a lively conversation and a shared sense of frustration. Why had the world of independent design become so serious, so samey, so… beige? Where was the spark, the imagination, the sheer joy of discovering something that made you stop and stare?
We dreamt of a marketplace that celebrated difference — where curious minds could explore a world of independent brands, design-led makers, and thoughtful artisans. A space that felt exciting, human, and beautifully imperfect.
Today, Sostter brings together remarkable people and their creations — from London to Lausanne, Brooklyn to Berlin — uniting makers and discoverers through craftsmanship, creativity, and conscience. Every object tells a story, and every purchase supports an independent brand doing things differently.
This is just the beginning. But enough about us — step inside, explore our world, and see what catches your imagination.
Giving Back
We’re proud to support Sutton Night Watch, a grassroots UK charity making a real difference in the lives of those facing homelessness. Through regular donations of stock, supplies, and essentials, we back their mission to offer warmth, dignity, and practical help to anyone in need — right where it matters most.
