Crystal Spring Natural Deodorant

Walk around any chemists or the personal hygiene section of any supermarket and you will find the shelves groaning under the vast range of deodorant products. Everything from roll ons to aerosols in more varieties than you can imagine. Shopping for the right product can be something of a challenge and when you have decided on the type and the brand you are then faced with a range of scents. It can be hard to choose and I found I wanted something that I liked the smell of but which wouldn't 'compete' with any fragrance I might choose to wear. I was therefore intrigued a few years ago when I heard about crystal deodorants and was keen to find out more about ...  Read the complete review

After wanting to go over to all things natural I looked for a natural deodorant. I tried out The Body Shops Aloe deodorant and was happy enough with it but it isn't exactly natural just not tested on animals. I turned to Lush and tried two of their deodorants, they burnt my skin really badly and so weren't an option for me, sadly! A member of a review site told me about Crystal Spring deodorants and I decided to give them a try. I popped to my local Holland and Barretts and picked up one of these little wonders in travel size. It is only very small at 50g and at only £2.99 I thought it was a bargain. The normal sized one is 90g and £4.49. ...  Read the complete review

I was increasingly aware that the usual high street antipersperants were just not working for me. I have always had issues with overheating and getting sweaty. It is only natural to be so. Its our bodies way of getting rid of toxins. I would normally use the aliminum based sprays and they just were not doing the job. My clothes would be stained under the arm and washing powder wasnt hitting the mark and getting rid of the stains. I read on the internet that it was in fact Aliminium based sprays reacting that were the main cause for your clothes getting stained. There was nothing to do but to throw them away. I have ...  Read the complete review

I purchased one of these in the spring. I bought it on ebay for £2.00 with £1 p&p so if I didn't like it I hadn't wasted too much money. I always wanted to try one as many anti-perspirants irritate my skin and I've only found a couple that don't so this natural solution seemed ideal. The stick itself is just like a crystal, it's in a base you hold onto with a plastic cover that screws on top. You hold the crystal just as you would a normal roll-on. Down to business, before you can apply this you either have to dampen your skin or the crystal itself. It's probably quicker to apply immediately after washing when the skin is still wet and ...  Read the complete review

In my time I have used loads of different scented deodorants in particularly roll on ones. Knowing that they are harsh with the chemicals they contain and can lead to breast cancer. Did not have much of a choice i sweat under my arms a lot and didn't want anyone to think I stink. Then I think it was on The Wright Stuff programme on five I saw the crystal deodorants and thought could this actually work. This was to the back of my mind till I went into Holland and Barrett for a quick look round. I came across the Crystal Spring Natural Deodorant for £4.99 a bit much I thought. So after dithering whether to try it out or not I thought what the heck I ...  Read the complete review
