Crystal Deodorant

[wolf116]

Just letting you guys know about a great product that works extremely well.

http://www.bodycrystal.com.au/

My ex would always complain about my man oder until I was put onto this stuff by a mate. I would spray sh!t loads of any normal deodorant on and within a few hours I would be stinking again (so she said, I couldn't tell).

I have saved thousands of dollars on deodorant by now.

-It lasts over a year
-cheep
-no chemicals
-no smell (I just use colone when I want a smell)

It's just like this salt crystal that you wet then rub under your arms. Strange but it works!

You can buy it from most chemists.

I use a salt crystal deodorant myself, although a different brand. It's a good investment. I'm totally against deodorants that block your natural ability to sweat.

I use a different brand also (couldn't find the site) but have used this brand. They are made out of mineral salts or something.

I heard anti-perspirants could give you breast cancer (even a dude! lol)

hehe yea, I wouldn't be surprised if it did raise your risk at that. That's something I can do without! :rockon:

Where can I get this stuff in Cali?

I heard yogurt and pineapple also help eliminate body odors cuz they have enzymes that cut odor causing compounds.

I'm not sure, check your chemist(drug store, I think they call it in America) or health food shops sometimes have it.


Here is another brand. Make sure you get the hard crystal rock one(also comes in a spray).

I remember using something like that once as a teen and it worked. I think all it is is basically a big salt crystal. You could probably make it at home by super saturating some water with salt and then letting the water evaporate until the salt crystalizes.

I use this one http://www.thecrystal.com/product.cfm/id/2/scid/a/submit_thumb/2

They all seem pretty much the same. Make sure they don't contain that aluminum compound and you should be good.

are these really better than commercial deoderants?

i know i'm definitley a stinker from every pore, orifice and appendage

Your ****ing me.. I always thought this was just another new-age type 'gimmick'. This stuff actually works you say? I'll have to check it out when my breast cancer causing spray deodorant runs out.

Could you just rub some salt in your armpits?

no, It's made of special mineral salts that kill bacteria. It only costs $10 so don't bother.

Much better then commercial ones. They take a few days of use to start working properly though. Must need to build up a layer.

Wow the website claims it can last one year with proper use and it only costs $5.99.

A year you say? Does it also slice and dice, make Julian fries, and only cost 19.95? lol

Maybe it does work but I swear it sounds like it fits in the 'too good to be true' category.

 

[wolf116]

Yeah I'm just lying, don't bother listening to me.

If you read my post I already told you guys it lasts over one year. I've used this product for over 4 years now.

 

[onthepath]

i'm definitley gonna give this a go
can you use this all over your body so it'll stop stink from anywhere, or does it only work on places like your armpits?

also, can you mix it with otherproducts, like with an antipersperent? or would the chemicals react with the mienrals and stuff everything up?

In CA...I live there and I've bought it at CVS. I'm sure it's at other major pharmacies (Rite Aid, Walgreens, even Target).

I like it cause it doesn't stain my precious shirts
