Make Waves deodorant is amazing!! I wanted a natural deodorant that actual works, is kind to your skin and the environment. I've tried a few and they either leave you sweaty and smelling of BO or... See more

We create design-led products with a purpose that challenge behaviours around sustainability. Sustainability isn’t a handful of people living perfectly. It’s millions of us doing it imperfectly every day. Every swap to a more positive choice makes a difference. That means making more positive choices accessible by offering innovative swaps to new products that support a fulfilled life - made as sustainably as we can and always working hard to improve by listening to you, our community. Sustainability shouldn’t be an exclusive club, it should be inclusive, which is why we have made both natural and antiperspirant deodorants.

Really works as antiperspirant but I would like if it was a bit more scented when on
Would definitely recommend
Delivery good & subscription easily managed
Great producttarted using Make Waves last month…
Started using Make Waves last month it's a lovely product clean and neat, I chose the colour and smell, its so easy to use and skin friendly, the fragrance I chose lasts a long time and does its job well, plus I like the sustainability of it, Im glad I bought it and would recommend 💯, the service is great too 😊
Simple and fast
Simple and fast, with a huge selection. I love that theyre in the UK and as zero waste as possible. The subscription service works well, and delivery is fast.
Love this product
Love this product, fragrances are yummy, easy application and easy to refill. Very quick delivery too
The antiperspirant doesn’t perform well and leaves while marks
I’ve been using this antiperspirant for several years and it was great. It was also one of the few refillable antiperspirants I could find (rather than just deodorant). Recently I’ve found that it’s no longer effective and I’m getting quite smelly. I don’t know if they’ve changed the formula but I find I sweat a lot with it and I’m getting BO even when I haven’t done any exercise. It also leaves terrible white marks on my clothes and underwear – I use the amount they say (two swipes) but it’s still really bad and I’ve had to use a stain remover to get them out. For that reason, I’ve cancelled my subscription and I won’t be using it again.
So glad to have found Make Waves…
So glad to have found Make Waves anti-perspirant. Was fed up with the usual brands full of dubious ingredients and with overwhelming strong and unpleasant scents. The Make Waves anti-perspirant works really well, love that it’s refillable and the scents are subtle and a pleasure to use. Have also tried the unscented one, which is great if using a perfume for scent instead. Now have active subscriptions for me and my hubby. Love it 😊
Brilliant natural antipersperant
I was previously using Fussy, however with it just being a deoderant I was still prone to outbreaks of sweat, so I did some research and found Make Waves. After an intial short period for my body to adjust the antipersperant aspects of Mave Waves the benefits are fantastic and I'm suffering from far fewer sweat patches than before. It also works just as effectively as Fussy in neutralising any smells. I will now subsribe to Make Waves and look forward to trying their other scents.
Sensitive skin
I have been using the anti perspirant for a year now. I wanted to switch to a refillable but I sweat so wanted more than a deodorant. This works, it goes on dry and doesn't leave white marks on your clothes. Really pleased to have found this product and do not regret making the switch. I have sensitive skin and use their unperfumed but have also used the coconut and vanilla without issue. The customer service dept were fantastic on the only occasion I needed to reach out to then.
Incredible products - cute, effective and affordable!
I am in love with these antiperspirants! I ordered the Refillable Antiperspirant Pink Pomegranate Starter Pack. This includes a cute lilac applicator and the pomegranate scented antiperspirant. It all arrived in the cutest cardboard box, the packaging was really minimal and felt quite personalized. Super easy to assemble and more importantly, it works like a charm. Now, I'm someone who sweats a lot, so I was skeptical. But nope, this stuff keeps me dry and smelling nice. I absolutely recommend it! I also bought the Coconut & Vanilla Antiperspirant which came with a free light pink applicator (I love how you get a free applicator on first purchases, so cool). Again, works perfectly, smells great. Oh and they apply so nicely, no piling. These are honestly such a game changer, I'm now subscribed and will be buying these for as long as they make them!!!
Amazing product
I have been using make waves for quite a few months now and it has been amazing the best antiperspirants out there! It stops all smells from sweating it truly has been a lifesaver! I do a very physical job and sweat a lot but this has controlled it completely and also smells very nice
The subscription makes it even easier so before I have ran out I already have my new ones so I am never without
Even changing the scents is quick and easy I 100% recommend
I tried hundreds of different deodorants and antiperspirants non of which worked but make waves definitely does!
I've been using make waves for over a…
I've been using make waves for over a year now. I love the scent selection and it works best for me compared to the other brands I've tried. The fact it comes to my door and I dont need to go shopping for it is very convenience.
Smells beautiful and works
Smells beautiful, and most importantly, works all while protecting my skin. I’ve hunted for ages to find something this gentle on my reactive skin, the refills are simple to order too. Perfect product
The Best
Excellent product. Having tried lots of natural deodorants/antiperspirants, this is the one I've settled for. It works all day. Simply, it does what it's meant to do.
Great smells easy to change
I have been using Make Waves for a while now, the deodorant smells great, easy to use, due to the container type it doesn't fold over after a few uses and is easy to change. Each refill lasts roughly a month
I am so impressed
I am so impressed! It a fantastic product! The case is sturdy, the anti prepared is is easy to apply, smell love and most importantly WORKS so well! I am full converted!
Fabulous deodorant
Fabulous deodorant. Tried other brands and although didn’t smell I was super sweaty. Make waves has been fab no smell and not at all sweaty! On time and super fast with deliveries. Had one problem with first deliver which was my fault in the end but they sorted it so fast.
The product is really good
The product is really good, one of the best I have used.
Lots of nice fragrances to choose from.
I recently had a small problem and needed to get in touch with customer services. Great, friendly communication and very easy to get my problem resolved.
I would certainly recommend this company for product and after care service.
Very happy with Make Waves
I had tried another brand previously but was keen on trying Make Waves as it is an antiperspirant. I am very pleaaed so far - I have been using for nearly a month and so far it's working very well.
I can't say the Jasmine and Rose has much of a perfume. But I have 3 other scents coming soon so may find obe I love with one of those
MISLEADING ADVERTISEMENT
MISLEADING ADVERTISEMENT. Their antiperspirant has ALUMINIUM in it. They've marketed themselves against natural deodorants but claiming theirs "stop the sweat" because its an antiperspirant... however, once you look at the ingredients on their antiperspirant it contains aluminium. Shameless advertising tactic especially as people avoid aluminium products for health reasons.
This has been an absolute game changer…
This has been an absolute game changer for me! Being perimenopausal, nothing was working for me at all. This little beauty works wonders, leaves me dry and smelling fresh all day.
Wont be using anything else now
