How Long Does a Natural Deodorant Last? What to Expect with ZINDEO
“How long does it last?” can mean three things: how long the effect lasts on the skin, how long one jar lasts in everyday use, and how long the cream keeps. Here are the answers for ZINDEO Anti-odorant Cream.
How Long Does It Work on the Skin?
ZINDEO Fragrance-Free Anti-odorant Cream was tested by the independent testing laboratory J.S. Hamilton Poland on people with strong body odour. The cream was applied to one underarm once a day for 6 days, while the other underarm was left untreated for comparison. Trained assessors then rated both underarms 24, 48 and 72 hours after the last application.
11 of 12 people had less body odour 24 and 48 hours after the last application. The reduction was still statistically significant 72 hours after the last application (after 6 days of use).
| After the last application | Treated underarm | Untreated underarm | Less body odour |
|---|---|---|---|
| 24 hours | 3.1 | 4.4 | −32% |
| 48 hours | 3.9 | 4.7 | −19% |
| 72 hours | 4.5 | 4.8 | −8% |
Score: 1 = undetectable, 2 = weak, 3 = perceptible, 4 = strong, 5 = very strong. All differences were statistically significant (p < 0.05).
These figures show how long the effect could still be measured after the last application – they are not a guide to how often to apply the cream. The effect lasts because ZINDEO does not cover odour with fragrance: it does not block natural sweating, targets bacteria associated with odour and supports the skin microbiome (see how ZINDEO works). The full results are on our Clinical Testing page.
How Often Do You Need to Apply It?
If you use the cream on its own, apply a thin layer in the evening. In RESET SET MAX, SALSOAP® and the Roll-on are used in the evening and the cream in the morning. From our experience since 2013, many customers gradually apply it less often after the first months, according to their needs. What to expect month by month is described on the ZINDEO RESET page. Practical questions about applying the cream are answered in our FAQ.
How Long Does a 15 g Jar Last?
Based on customer experience, a 15 g jar lasts about 3–6 months at first, depending on how much and how often you apply it. Long-term customers often make one jar last up to 12 months. A thin layer is enough. A little goes a long way.
When the jar is empty, you don’t need a new one: the metal jar can be refilled with Anti-odorant Cream Refill.
What Is the Shelf Life of the Cream?
The cream has a shelf life of 24 months – comfortably longer than even the longest use of one jar.
