effective deodrants

[blueserendipity]

i know i know

there have been topics on this before i just finished reading some of them

but just wondering if anyone has found an effective natural deodrant (not ant-perspirant)

btw i noticed when i was in hk that many chinese people don't wear deodrant and don't smell. (so jealous)

i have two theories on this one-diet(although they eat alot of meat arghhhhh).

two because they never started wearing anti-pers or any deodrant there bodies fought the bacteria naturally whereas everyone elses become depdendent on deodarant. what do you think?

That's interesting. I actually have noticed that on days when I forget to put on deoderant, I don't smell at all. I don't know why I don't stop wearing it! As for a good deoderant, I can't help you there. I have probably 5 partially used natural deoderants in my bathroom. I have tried KMF stick and roll on, the crystal, Alba, Jason, Avalon, Toms and probably more that I am forgetting. Out of those I had the best results with the Alba and the crystal. But they would only work sometimes. So, I keep going back to the Dove.

I like Aubrey's, as I like all Aubrey products. They are free of aluminum.

Of course it's not going to keep you from sweating, and you don't want that, anyway, but it's a great scent!

I recommend something called the Deoderant Stone, it's just potassium sulphate plus mineral salts. I get mine in a little bag for about 4 bucks Canadian, it's made by a company called Natures Expressions. There are American (and otherwise) companies that make them too. It's excellent, I've used it before exercising a lot of times, and it really works.

I like Jason's apricot kind. it's the only animal-friendly deoderant that I've used that works and doesn't make me break out. even the rock makes me break out for some reason, and I didn't find it worked very well.

Weleda Sage spray deodorant is the BEST! It is all natural and made with essential oils and lemon juice.

Toms of maine deodorants work well for me.

Avalon makes a Lavender an Rosemary deodorant. It works great.

Weleda Sage spray deodorant is the BEST! It is all natural and made with essential oils and lemon juice.

That's what I use!!! It's incredible!! The citrus one is also good.
Also Aubrey Organics' "E Plus High C" deodorant worked for me when I was working all day long at a store & then exotic dancing all night.
It's crap that natural, animal-free deodorants don't work.

I am mad about deodorant crystals. Which you can get in a spray now! So you don't have to wet your rock and all of that business.

I thought it was hoopla, but it really works. Really well.

I have some Tom's of Maine, but I like the deodorant rock as well. I mentioned in another thread that it also make a great conversation piece at the gym. :D

I used to use the deoderant stone, but I now use Kiss My Face Liquid Rock, which is a roll-on. This is the only roll-on I've ever liked.
