Shelf Presence: The stick format is recognizable and communicates a specific product experience (clean, easy, effective). It can be designed to look premium, minimalist, or eco-friendly based on the brand's identity.
Transparency Option: Some brands use clear PET plastic for the tube, allowing consumers to see the product inside, which builds trust and highlights natural ingredients or colors.
Leverages Existing Habits: The application method (twist-up stick) is already familiar to anyone who has used a traditional deodorant or lipstick. This lowers the barrier to entry for consumers trying a natural deodorant format for the first time, making it less intimidating than a jar of cream.
