We all us deodorant because no one wants to smell bad, and offend others. Over the last few years I heard how bad aluminum and Parabens are for the body. I immediately went out and bought a natural deodorant. Unfortunately it didn’t work, so I returned to regular deodorant. I have tried a few others and they worked sometimes, but the amount of time I had to shower went way up. Then I tried Crystal Deodorant, and I am so happy to have found what works for me, and is good for my body at the same time.
About Crystal
Crystal is the natural alternative to all the chemical-laden deodorants on the market today. Since these Crystal products are made from simple mineral salts, they form an invisible layer of deodorant protection on the skin. They create an unfriendly environment for odor causing bacteria instead of trying to mask odor with heavy scents and fragrances.
These deodorants are free from Parabens, Phthalates, Aluminum Zirconium, and Aluminum Chlorohydrate, and any other harmful chemical. Plus they are non-sticky, non-staining, dry instantly, and have no white residue.
Most noteworthy is Crystal Deodorant is not an antiperspirant. Antiperspirants clog pores artificially to stop sweating. They achieve this with many unhealthy ingredients, plus sweating is natural and good for our bodies.
Most noteworthy is the possible dangers of Parabens, since it has been found in trace quantities in breast cancer tumors. Although there is not a study that directly links the two, it is safer to err on the side of caution and not use harmful chemicals on our bodies. Plus now when you buy a roll-on deodorant:
Crystal has partnered with the Breast Cancer Prevention Partners (BCPP) for a minimum $10,000 donation. Money on every roll-on purchased through the end of the year will be donated to their cause.
Men’s Crystal Deodorant
I have two teenage boys and a husband. My boys are active and often sweat and stink very badly. I was skeptical that a block of crystal would work for them. I am happy to admit I was wrong. My sons have been smelling fine for over a week now, even after vigorous activity. My 16 year old son spent hours raking leaves the other day. He did sweat, but he was not stinky. Then my husband, who never tries anything natural since he says they never work, humored me and put on the Crystal Rock Deodorant. He agreed to try it on his day off. He said it worked very well, and now he is at work with it on. No worries at all that he will stink, once he starts sweating.
Women’s and Unisex Varieties
I am truly thrilled by how well these Crystal Deodorants work. I sweat sometimes at night ( sorry for TMI ), and wake up smelling not so fresh. My sheets get washed and so do I. Now obviously I still get night sweats, but I do not stink. This deodorant works for 24 hours like it says. I do not have to put it on before bed. Since it is a crystal it doesn’t leave build up or residue on my skin. My razor is not getting clumped up with that buildup, and my clothes are not getting stained. Most noteworthy is that one stick of Crystal Deodorant says it will last for a year! The savings on that alone are awesome. My boys go through a lot of regular deodorant.
The Original Crystal Rock comes with a little bowl that it can sit in. This Crystal is not only the best deodorant I have ever used, but it is so pretty. I could leave this out on my bathroom counter as decoration with a purpose. To use this you wet it and then rub it on your under arms.
The Crystal Essence Roll On are scented naturally, and they smell really great. My favorite is the Pomegranate, and my daughter loves the Lavender. These are quick to use and protect from body odor just as well as the rock alternatives. Since you have to wet the rocks, this might be an easier use for some people.
Mom’s Thoughts
I really love the fact that I can save money while I make good choices for the health of my family. I was even able to help a friend who forgot her deodorant on a ladies church trip. Crystal Body Deodorant Towelettes are great for travel and I packed extra. These little Towelettes are individually packaged wipes that you can apply to your clean armpits. One wipe will work on both arms. I gave a couple to my friend and told her to try them. She was intrigued with the concept and was so happy to get to try a natural deodorant that works.
My family will use Crystal Deodorant. Since it is natural and not harmful, as well as affordable, we are all in! Now whether we sit around the house all day, or decide to hike 5 miles, we will smell just fine. I do not know if those chemicals cause breast cancer for sure, but I do know they are not good for my body. I do not want to be a guinea pig when there are great healthy alternatives to chose from. Plus it is great that Crystal has partnered with Breast Cancer Prevention Partners (BCPP), and is helping such a needy cause. I know several women directly affected by this cancer, and you probably do as well.
