CRYSTAL Deodorant Mineral Deodorant Stick, Travel, 1.5 Ounce

This is a travel-size deODORant, not an antiperspirant. People, read before you buy something. If you want to be healthy and live longer, let your body do its natural thing. If you want to stop sweat, this is not for you. Sweat doesn’t stain clothes, the antiperspirant you sweat off does. With that being said, this doesn’t drain your clothing. With ladies having more skin in the front private area, I was smelling for no reason down there midday. I don’t know what was up and neither did the doc. I’m 29 and it just started happening. Figure it’s my hormones. Either way, I had my husband do a smell test after using this, and it was as if he had Covid or something because he couldn’t smell any funk on my nether regions. My underarms were stink-free too. To use: Only works on CLEAN skin. Not dirty skin. Use it after a shower a bath please, or it won’t work. Wet the crystal a little and rub it on the usual stinky areas. I wet mine a few times if I wasn’t done. Let the crystal air dry before you put the cap on (only takes about 30 seconds to a minute). Safe to rub everywhere on your body because it’s a natural mineral. Don’t put anything inside of any holes, but it is safe for butt cracks and everywhere outside of the uterus (vag). Works for men, too. This is not sticky, does not stain clothing, and is safe for sensitive skin. I have very sensitive skin. I can’t even wear a lot of makeup, perfumes, or use many well-known body washes. I’ll break out. My body told me when I was younger to stay away from harmful products with artificial and toxic ingredients, so take it from me and all the other reviewers. Less is best! :)

I purchased the CRYSTAL mineral deodorant stick (travel size), and it’s worked really well for me. It’s easy to apply and doesn’t have a strong scent, which I like. It keeps odor under control throughout the day without feeling sticky or heavy on the skin. I also appreciate that it doesn’t leave residue on clothes. Even though it’s the travel size, it lasts longer than expected since you don’t need to use much. It’s convenient to carry and great for daily use or trips. Overall, this is a simple and effective deodorant. Gentle, long-lasting, and easy to use. I would definitely buy it again.

I highly recommend this super natural, unscented deodorant; it keeps my skin free of stains. It is the best thing you can use.

Update 5/23/18: I still use the crystal most days. I've been using another deodorant when it's hot or I'm exercising because it falls a bit short for me there. I plan to try another natural deodorant soon to see if it's an improvement over the crystal. That being said, this little thing has really lasted. I dropped my crystal a ways back and a piece broke off. I don't recall what I used, but I just sanded off the rough edges and after a few weeks or so the end was nice and rounded again. The same travel crystal is still working for me even though it's been almost 2 years. I wash the end off with Dr. Bronners every once in a while, just cause. Finally! A natural deodorant that works! I wanted to find an alternative to my chemical laden antiperspirant and first tried Lavanila Vanilla Grapefruit Deodorant. It smelled pretty good, but didn't work for me at all. After just an hour or so of not even doing much I could faintly smell myself through the perfumey smell. Gross. I gave up on finding a natural deodorant for a while after that until I kept reading about backpackers using Crystal Deodorant and having great success. With a backpacking trip coming up I figured I'd give it a try. Worst case scenario I smell while out in the woods, big deal. After testing it out the day I got it (and continuously doing smell checks on myself throughout the day) I couldn't smell anything! You still sweat some, as it's not an antiperspirant, but there is literally no smell at all. You have to use it properly though. It's not like normal deodorant where you give a swipe or two and you're good. After my shower in the morning I towel off leaving my underarms still a little damp. Then I apply the crystal to my underarms until they become dry and there is friction between the crystal and your skin. If you already dried yourself off, you can put a drop or two of warm water on it and do the same. The more water the more time it takes to rub it on til it's dry though. I got the travel size to save weight and space backpacking, but seeing as it doesn't really wear down at all it should last a really long time. I'm just happy to finally find a natural deodorant that works.

100% works. They key is to use it wet. The first day I had already dried my armpits so I had to wet the crystal and use it. It worked well. The second and third time I used it I stepped out of the shower and dried everything but my armpits and then used it. It does exactly what baking soda does; kills odor. Zero oder after perspiring. I will continue to use this. Make sure to rinse the crystal and let it dry after each use before covering it to keep it clean.

I expected this to be like magic based on the reviews. I bought it for my sister because she gets cysts in her underarms when using most deodorants and they do not mask odor for more than a couple of hours. This seemed worth a shot and initially it seemed cool but didn’t last very long. I decided to try it myself and I didn’t find it as effective as other deodorants I’ve used. No irritation though and once it dries it feels like it’s not there which is nice. No weird texture or stickiness. Just wish it masked odor a bit longer. Everyone’s body is different though, so worth trying for the price point!

For the few times I need a deodorant, this mineral stick works fine and seems to work for days. Granted I do not sweat a lot, so I cannot say how it would work on a person who does.

I am very stingy with 5-star reviews, but this crystal potassium alum deodorant is positively amazing. I swapped out aluminum-containing deodorant a few years ago but was then stuck with the "natural" ones. You name it, I've probably tried it. Anything with baking soda, like Tom's or regular Native, gave me itchy and rashy underarms within a few days. Lume was pretty good until they changed their ingredients during the pandemic and the starting scent smelled like cheese. I liked the Schmidt deodorants, but got awful buildup that ruined several shirts after several months of daily use. Native sensitive deodorant had lovely scents but I had to apply multiple times a day to mask the BO. And then... this. This is the holy grail for me. I understand it doesn't work for everyone, but it's too-good-to-be-true good for me. It's certainly not an antiperspirant, but my sweat is truly odorless. And since it's odorless, I'm not as self-conscious about it, so I sweat less. I don't have to worry about buildup on my clothes over time. And you know what else? It lasts all day and into the next if I am slow to shower. I bought a travel size in March, and now in August the stick is maybe 20% gone, at most. And no, potassium alum is a salt (some sources say sulfate, so do your own research), but it's certainly not a metal like aluminum-based deodorants/antiperspirants. 11/10 would recommend.

Macht was er soll....ich transpiriere wie sonst auch, aber es entwickelt sich kein Geruch und genau das wollte ich mit dem Stick bewirken. Daher absolute Kaufempfehlung. Der Stick könnte jedoch größer sein.

The product description is misleading this is not a deodorant it is a stone that need to be wet before use

its perfect like straight out of a dream even if it looks pretty small it actually lasts a while we talking years here and then it actually lasts MORE than 24 hours doesnt give a bad smell(unless you dont wash it) it literally has 0 bad ingredients and for the price its like im getting a peice of heaven for free, now if the smell persists you can perfume of your liking in the cover and and put the deodorant back in and boom best cheapest most insane quantity and quality deadront ever

When I first bought this, I didn't realize that it was a solid crystal so when i tried to use it nothing was coming out. However, when I read the instructions it said to wet it and then use it. I have a spray bottle I keep next to the deodorant so I give it a few sprays and then apply liberally all over my armpit and IT WORKS AMAZINGLY. I was genuinely not expecting it to work this well. It really has no scent whatsoever and my armpits have no odor at all! So I definitely recommend using this deodorant, definitely not going to be my last time using it And I feel like because you spray it and then use it, it will last a long time which is also a plus ***UPDATE *** After using it for a few months, I noticed that my armpits became slightly irritated, red, dry and itchy I was only using this product on my armpits when that started happening, and as I kept using it, the redness and itchiness remained Last month I stopped using it completely and the irritation and itchiness has gone away completely So just keep that in mind when youre considering buying this product

Excellent for travelling.
