Buy the Tom's of Maine Long Lasting Deodorant.

Same daily job as milk + honey, for less than half the cost per ounce and six times the stock in the cupboard.

What was compared

1. Less than half the price per ounce
$39.99 for 13.5oz of Tom's works out to about $2.96 an ounce, against milk + honey's $6.92 an ounce for one 2.6oz stick. Same daily job, Tom's does it for under half the price.
2. One order, half a year of deodorant
Six 2.25oz sticks mean you are not reordering every six to eight weeks the way you would with milk + honey's single stick. For something used daily, that is fewer reorders and fewer days caught with an empty stick.
3. A track record milk + honey has not built
Tom's carries 706 ratings at 4.4 stars, a real history across thousands of daily users, some loving it, some not, but a real sample. Milk + honey leans on an unverified 86 percent satisfaction claim with no comparable review base backing it up.
4. A company that backs up what it claims
Tom's is a Certified B Corp with public accountability standards and donates 10 percent of profits to health and education causes, a transparency record milk + honey does not publish anywhere on its page.
5. The baking-soda-free claim, answered
Milk + honey's real edge is being baking soda free, built for the slice of buyers whose skin specifically reacts to baking soda itself. Tom's is still aluminum free and preservative free, which covers sensitive skin for most people; if baking soda is your actual trigger, go milk + honey, but that is a narrow group, not most buyers.
