Overall Rating: ★★★★☆
Price: $ (under $10) – Available at Deodorant Stones and Lucky Vitamin.
Scent: Unscented
I Like: how natural and simple the product is. Made with only two ingredients.
Not a fan of: nothing. You might have to reapply throughout the day if you have heavy perspiration.
If you’re tired of using wet, sticky roll-on and stick deodorants made with numerous chemicals and potential irritants, then you may want to consider trying Thai Crystal & Cornstarch Deodorant Powder. This simple unscented deodorant powder is made with only two ingredients, without preservatives, talc, or aluminum chlorohydrate. While this deodorant does keep the stink at bay for a few hours, I have to reapply the powder throughout the day to stay comfortable and dry. This powder also works well at keeping other body parts naturally fresh. Try applying Thai Crystal & Cornstarch Deodorant Powder on your feet before going to the office or gym to minimize foot funk and itchiness.
Overall Rating: ★★★★★ Price: $ (under $10). Available at Crystal and Amazon. Scent: None I liked: how natural it was – unlike antiperspirants, this product did not leave ugly, caked-on yellow underarm stains on my shirts. Great value – it lasts up to an entire year. I didn’t like: how fragile it was – try not to drop it on a hard surface.
I used to hate it when my shirts would get those disgusting, caked-on yellow pit stains. That was when I relied heavily on antiperspirant deodorants to combat body odor – I would slather that stuff under my arms every day not knowing that it would end up ruining countless t-shirts and polos. Despite switching brands (I went from Degree to Arrid, then back to Degree) the stain problem persisted…until I discovered the Crystal Body Deodorant Stick. I initially had my doubts about using what is essentially a smooth salt rock to prevent body odor – how could it possibly work? Apparently, the crystal leaves a trace of natural mineral salts which remain on the skin and fight odor-causing bacteria. After using the crystal deodorant for a few months, I noticed my shirts no longer had the residue in the underarm area. More importantly, the crystal was effective in combating body odor. While there are rumors of risks associated with the use of antiperspirants (Alzheimer’s disease and breast cancer have been linked to its long-term use), you should try using the crystal not only because it is safer, but also because it is effective at fighting body odor without ruining shirts. The Crystal Body Deodorant Stick is legit.
