Your Fun & Fabulous Guide to Salt of the Earth Refillable Roll-On Deodorants!
We're Salt of the Earth - an award-winning, independent family business (with a whopping 57 awards under our belt!) who are slightly obsessed with making natural deodorants that actually work. Our refillable roll-on deodorants combine effective natural protection with our refill system that helps reduce packaging waste. They're certified COSMOS Natural by the Soil Association, packed with 100% natural origin ingredients, and ready to make your underarms very happy indeed. Let's roll into everything you need to know!
What Makes Our Refillable Roll-Ons Simply Roll-markable?
Our refillable roll-on deodorants aren't just any old roll-ons - they're:
- Certified by the Soil Association to COSMOS Natural standards (fancy, right?)
- Proudly carrying the Vegan Society trademark (plants only, please!)
- Approved under the Leaping Bunny Programme
- Made without aluminum chlorohydrate (your underarms will thank you)
- Come in a refillable bottle design to reduce packaging waste
- Lovingly crafted in our UK factory by people who genuinely care about your armpits
How to Use Your Roll-On:
Getting the most from your natural roll-on deodorant is super simple:
- Give it a good shake before each use to ensure ingredients are well mixed (think of it as a tiny cocktail shaker)
- Apply to clean, dry underarms - ideally after bathing or showering when your pores are singing "I'm cleeeean!"
- Roll 2-3 swipes under each arm for optimal coverage (no need to create a roller rink under there)
- Allow a moment to dry before getting dressed (patience is a virtue, especially for dry armpits)
- Top up during the day if needed (we won't judge your roll frequency)
New to natural deodorants? Your body might need a mini vacation from conventional antiperspirants - about 1-2 weeks to adjust. Don't panic, this is totally normal! Your body is just remembering how to be, well, a body.
How Long Will Your Roll-On Last?
Based on our experience, these are approximate usage times that will vary depending on your individual application technique and frequency (we don't judge your rolling style):
- Light use (2 swipes per armpit daily): Approximately 6 months (that's a lot of rolling!)
- Average use (3 swipes per armpit daily): Approximately 4 months
- Heavy use (4 swipes per armpit, twice daily): Approximately 1.5 months (you really love that fresh feeling, don't you?)
Refill and Rejoice: How to Refill Your Roll-On
One of the things we love most about our refillable roll-ons is how easy they are to refill (and Mother Earth loves it too!):
- Unscrew the roller ball unit from the empty bottle (lefty loosey!)
- Thoroughly rinse both the bottle and roller ball unit with warm water (give them a spa day)
- Allow to dry completely (patience, grasshopper)
-
Carefully pour in the refill - our refills are designed for mess-free pouring
- Securely screw the roller ball unit back on (righty tighty!)
-
Shake well before first use
By reusing your original bottle and roller ball, you can reduce the amount of packaging that would otherwise be discarded. Mother Nature is giving you a virtual high-five right now!

Pro Tips for Roll-On Domination
- Always apply to thoroughly clean skin (think of it as a blank canvas for your masterpiece)
- If you notice any change in effectiveness, check that you're applying to completely dry underarms (dampness is the enemy of good application!)
- Keep the roller ball clean for smooth application (happy roller ball = happy armpit)
- One application is sufficient for most of our customers' daily needs (one and done!)
- Our roll-ons won't leave white marks on your clothing (black outfit confidence? Absolutely!)
Questions You Might Be Too Shy to Ask (But We'll Answer Anyway)
Is this an antiperspirant? Nope! Our roll-ons are deodorants that work by inhibiting odour-causing bacteria rather than blocking sweat glands. Sweating is a natural and necessary bodily function - it's your body's built-in cooling system. We're just helping make it less... aromatic.
How does the refill system reduce waste? By reusing the bottle and roller ball unit, you significantly reduce packaging waste.
Can I use this deodorant during pregnancy? Many customers use our natural deodorants during pregnancy due to their natural ingredient profile, but we always recommend consulting with your healthcare provider before using any new product during pregnancy. They know your situation best!
Will there be a transition period? Some people experience a brief "getting to know you" phase when switching from conventional antiperspirants to natural deodorants. This typically lasts 1-2 weeks as your body readjusts its natural bacteria balance. Think of it as your underarms going through a detox retreat!
As a certified COSMOS Natural, Vegan Society registered, and Leaping Bunny approved brand, our refillable roll-on deodorants offer effective natural protection while helping to reduce packaging waste through our refill system.
