I discovered the existence of crystal deodorants years ago when an old friend said they used them so their perfume wouldn't clash with the fragrance from the deodorant. I was sceptical of how well such a thing would work, and tried another brand but in a spray version (as I prefer spray deodorants) and wasn't overly impressed.
Some time later I saw this and thought I'd give it a go as I hadn't tried the stick version or this brand at all. That was well over a year ago and I've only recently bought my second stick.
I'm not sure what kind of magic this is but I haven't had any body odour since using it. Traditional deodorants I would have to reapply multiple times during the day due to starting to smell, and even the other brand I tried didn't cut it for a whole day like this one does. Now I can sweat and not worry!
I honestly can't believe how well it works, and how long the stick lasts. It's also simple to use, after having a shower or bath I dry myself then grab the stick next to the sink and run it under the tap for a moment. I then use it on my armpit and wet it again to do the other pit so there's plenty of slip when rolling it over the whole area. I then leave it with the lid off so it can dry.
I love how because it's fragrance free I can wear any perfume or body spray without different scents clashing. I also didn't realise how much aluminium deodorant caused body odour to be worse, also, until I used this. I read some people experience a detox when they switch from using traditional deodorants, with extra odour as the body purges the nasty ingredients, but I didn't experience any of that myself. I was very lucky to be rid of body odour as soon as I started using this.
Every body is different and it might not work as well for others, but I do recommend giving it a go for at least a month. If your body purges you can wash your armpits and reapply each time to get through it. You will be amazed when this does work for you and it's worth it.
Tips
Use after a shower or bath by wetting under the sink and rolling all over the armpit area. Re-wet if/when the stick becomes dry so it's slippery and glides easily. Leave the lid off to allow it to dry easily, unless of course you're travelling and need to put it in a bag etc. It can also be used on feet. Don't give up if you experience purging, it's worth it when it's over and this works for you!
Ideal for
Anyone who wants to save money, use something that doesn't harm the body, and who wants to stop body odour.
