Does Woohoo deodorant stain clothing or leave white marks?Updated a month ago

The yellow staining people usually mean by this is related to aluminium-based antiperspirants. Aluminium antiperspirants tend to react with sweat and leave yellow marks in the fabric. They can leave white marks too, where the aluminium dries on the skin and rubs off. There's no aluminium in any Woohoo deodorant.

White or greasy marks can also come from a natural deodorant, ours included. When it happens it's almost always about how much has been applied, and it can build up gradually in something you wear a lot.

Marks from our deodorants are easy to avoid: only use a small amount. A paste wants rubbing in fully; a stick doesn't usually need it, but it's worth doing as an extra step if you've got time in your routine. How much deodorant you actually need has the amounts for both the sticks and the pastes.

And if a mark ever does turn up, it's usually straightforward to sort out - Stains on my clothing goes through both kinds and what shifts each.
