Well! I can’t tell you how many people I have told about those dreadful aluminum deodorants over the last 20 years!

I have avoided them for so long now and not just the chemical content but the highly perfumed products too. I tried the T Tree ones but found the perfume overpowering and crystals seemed to be the go. Then to my delight I found Crystal Mist pump spray, made in Queensland, it has no aluminum, no alcohol, no parabens and no perfume. It works everytime. Simple mineral salts…the way to go for me.
It is only in some supermarkets so when I see it I buy several.
Manufacturers address is on the bottle.

That was really interesting about the parabens being stored in the tissue!

In my experience; I sweat at lot, all the time
and all year round. Generally exhausting myself, hot & humid temps, but also, oddly enough, being in quite cold air conditioning makes me sweat under the arms (which I find strange). So there is nowhere to run!

I have tried almost everything and I can’t find anything that works too well, luckily I end up smelling like the deodorant I use & I don’t pong. I am using redwins at the moment, it is okay I guess, waiting for it to dry on my skin is sometimes inconvenient. Rexona is crap, it’s like spraying talc and breathing it in too much is not pleasant either, I’m sorry I bought it in the first place.

I am also wondering, can clothing effect the smell of your sweat? I find if I am wearing my favourite shirts, that I’ve worn quite a lot, the fabric tends to get a quite pungent stench under the arms and it’s not nice. Quality of the fabric? Pesticides from the cotton?? I am not sure. Have you heard of this before?

Thankyou for sharing your wisdom!
