Crystal Deodorant Stick
Wow, is this as superb hand lotion.
Mama Bear said:Joe, I have been using the alum block as deodorant and I LOVE it! Please let me know how they Crystal Stick works... I can't help but think it would be easier to use, but there is no powery residue from the alum block and I have heard this can happen with other ones.. So far I really love this tho and am not planning on going back to regular deodorants ever again!!

TraderJoe said:Hi Sue, I've been using the crystal deodorants off and on for a couple years now. I'm sure an alum block could be used as well (probably even more suitable as I think they are more potent). And I've also not experienced powdery residue, but I've only used this one brand.
Which alumblock are you using?
Mama Bear said:Gaurav talked me into the Shavex... I can't believe how much cleaner I feel using it...! This is new to me, I always used girls deodorant before. I love the alum! I love finding new things too (at my age.... ) How are the alum blocks more potent, do you know?
Thanks!
Sue
TraderJoe said:I think the alum blocks are heavier, or "packed" more dense than the crystal deodorants. If I'm wrong, someone please correct me. I do, however, know for sure that alum blocks are perfectly suitable as deodorants (and a superior choice to using the standard store-bought antiperspirant...IMVHO)
I like using these deodorants because they allow you to perspire, which is a healthy process that allows your body to rid itself of toxins.
Mama Bear said:It has been suggested to me that I use it as a facial toner too... I am just not sure how I feel about using 1 block for both applications...... So, it is relegated to deodorant for now....
