Couple of Questions

HI all, well I am hoping there is an answer out there somewhere please, I have been told I have to use aluminium free deodarnt from now on for which I have purchsed the crystal one, but I dont feel it works, is there a good one out there that someone can recommend ??

 

Thanks for this Sue

  • Hi Susan, i also found the chrystal not so good but have now discovered "crystal Essence' mineral deodorant body spray, it's lavender and white tea, smalls great and part proceeds go to pink ribbon. I love it and got it at a local pharmacy (Geraldton, WA) the website on the bottle is-  www.thecrystal.com it is made in USA.  Before I found this I was using a lavender one from Mt Isa (South Australia) they have a website too, but not at home ATM but shouldnt be too hard to google. It's a bit more expensive than my pharmacy one, maybe your local chemist could order it in for you. There is a tea tree deo and a revlon one too but they dont smell as nice as the lavender ones. good luck and if you cant find anything let me know and i,m happy to post you one from here. good luck

  • Hi, thankyou for this info I will look into tonighton net,,,,Thankyou also for your offer to post me one back if I cannot lcate, If I have no luck I will let you know, but my chemist is pretty good here so I will also try with them.  As summer is coming up and I just fallen into this pridacament and I dont want this on top of everything...Thanks again Sue  :-)

  • welcome to this site, I hope you get lots of help here. Just take one day at a time, I know when i was diagnosed (2006) my gp told me "this is what you will be doing for the next year' he was pretty right. Four years on my strength is back and it's just a distant memory so take this time out for yourself, everything else will wait. I hope you have a good support group near by if not consider us your extended family/support and good luck.

  • This is great information - I have been searching for an effective replacement for my deodorant - I think I will give the crystal essence spray a try, thank you Susan 1 for bringing this issue up and thank you to you w.a.kaz for the excellent info.

  • Well i have located it on website so have placed an order, thankyou everyone....Regards Sue

  • Hi,

    I had trouble with deodorants, until I came across a site on the web about bi carb soda as a natural deodorant.  I have found it works great.
