Reviews
I haven't applied it in 3 days and even forgot to shower today, yet I still smell absolutely fine. Ordinarily I'd be smelly at the end of the day (if not a couple hours into the day) after showering and applying deodorant that morning. Its effectiveness isn't even dulled by my unshaven pits! 11/10, would wear again.
Absolutely in awe of Nuud. I’ve been using for over a month now, and I only put it on once a week! and everything about it is sustainable... how cool
I have been using Nuud since almost a year and i really love it. It works so good and i dont have to put dangerous chemicals or aluminum in my body. Totally recommend it.
I do not have terrible BO usually, but I do sweat profusely. Nuud stops me worrying about the sweat on my clothes. 1 swipe stops my BO for about 8 days!!! As well as this, after using it consistently for about a month, my armpit hair has stopped growing back which is weird but amazing. (Has anyone else found this?)
I've always been a excessive sweater !! Glam I know... From been a teenager I've use sprays,roll one, stick on pads , change my diet, cut out salt,you name it I've tried it !!! This worked from word go I do not smell at all, I still get slight sweat patches bit nowhere as bad as what they were. I can't believe it that embarrassing moment of not moving my arms or always masking the smell with a spray of some sort is over. I've been using it a month and have left it 2 days some weeks and I've been fine. I honestly can't recommend this enough !!! Thank you Nuud
I bought nuud because our daughter had a extremely bad sweat problem. So bad that we had tests for cystic fibrosis. She even had a salty taste to her skin all the time. We had tried everything and she was just staring high school when we discovered Nuud. Its changed our lives ( Phheeewwww) and more importantly, its helped a little girl get her confidence back. It lasts ages we are just ordering again after nearly a year. Thank Nuud xxxx
I work in one of the greatest clubs in the world and sometimes do not have the opportunity to shower for 36hr. If I have applied my nuud beforehand, then I never have to worry about being the person who stinks. The vegan and eco stuff is a bonus, the effectiveness is what keeps me coming back though.
Before trying Nuud I would have problems with my right armpit having BO as soon as I dried after a shower 5* embarrassment. I was looking for Vegan Deodorant for my daughter and didn’t believe a product could be as good as the Ad blurb. From first use IT IS effective and I am totally converted it’s worth every penny.
A really great environmentally-friendly product which works. Excellent for travelling, which such a small tube, and it lasts for ages. Very pleased. So glad I made the switch.
This stuff is amazing. Usually when something says unscented it just means that it has a different, unnamed, weird smell. This stuff seriously doesn't smell at all, and neither will you when you wear it. My husband has also started using it, and lo and behold, it works for men too! (Y'all at nuud should consider marketing it to everyone, and not just women, cuz it works for all sweat levels!) I have not yet had the courage to skip days. I put a pea sized amount each day. This is the first natural deodorant I have tried that works BETTER than regular over-the-counter deodorant. Thanks nuud! I'm telling everyone :)
Having gone through the Nuud process rigorously I am sorry to say that it does not work for me. I would go as far as to say that using it actually makes body odour sharper and more undesirable that applying nothing at all.
I absolutely love this deodorant... I'm such a sweaty person.. But nuud... Wow... I still sweat in the gym but I don't smell. I don't smell of perfume deodorant either, I love it
I love Nuud! I bought the starter pack about a month ago. I only have to apply every 3 to 4 days and I’ve just ordered the Smarter pack along with the subscription to I’ve it delivered every 4 months! I’ve always had really sweaty armpits, they get smelly quickly but not anymore!!! I’m never going back to normal deodorants! I love being able to put it on knowing I won’t have white stains on my clothes. I also love the feeling on the second/third day when I get dressed and I don’t have damp sticky armpits. Absolutely brilliant product! Highly highly recommend it!
I love this deodorant. It has been about 3 weeks and after the detox period, it lasts about 5-7 days. I even put it on a spot yesterday night and it cleared it up. I was really hesitant as it was expensive but if I am using it once a week, it will definitely be worth the money!!
I started using this in autumn last year and it worked well. I have just been to London for a couple of days in temperatures of well over 90 degrees and I am really pleased to say this stuff still works!! I am very pleased and proud to be a Nuud user and thoroughly recommend it!
