I'm a huge fan of this deodorant! It's the best all natural deodorant I've found. I usually buy the jars (although I wish they would find a way to make them refillable!). However, I am traveling and camping and thought the tube would be more convenient. It is not. The base is too flimsy so even pushing up gently causes it to turn askew. It would be helpful to add a cardboard stick to assist with raising the product out of the tube.
