Do you know that most deodorants are made of aluminum?? Do you know that aluminum is harmful to you and your skin and it may lead to breast cancer...?If you're looking to completely eliminate aluminum from your deodorant and your medicine cabinet, there are other options. Tom's of Maine makes a well-regarded line of non-aluminum products featuring zinc ricinoleate and natural ingredients. Zinc ricinoleate is also the basis of Dr. Hauschka Deodorant Fresh in scented and floral formulas. Burt's Bees Herbal Deodorant uses oil of sage for its active ingredient, and Trader Joe's sells a natural deodorant which relies on a cotton product to approximate the antiperspirant action of aluminum zirconium. Surprisingly, mainline manufacturer Adidas also makes a non-aluminum deodorant: Adidas 24-Hr Control. It's not expensive, and the sort of thing you'd find in a conventional drugstore.
What's more, "antiperspirants are designed to be absorbed"; the aluminum and many other chemicals are taken into the body and may affect the endocrine and lymphatic systems, as well as being a potential risk factor in breast cancer.
Aluminum: Used as a color additive in cosmetics, especially eye shadows. Another form of Aluminum is used in deodorants and antiperspirants. Listed as carcinogenic, toxic and mutagenic.
So I usually look for 0% Aluminum deodorant... and I look over some makeup video blog, and I found out this natural Crystal deodorant. You can easily find it in local supermarket, London drxgs.. etc..
It's called CRYSTAL BODY DEODORANT STICK
Lasts up to a year
the men version is black one..
but the different is just the color of the bottle, the inside crystal stone is the same!
I noticed that the store has the spray one as well and scented one too..
How to Use: Slightly moisten the top of the stick and apply generously to clean skin. Works best when applied right after bathing or showering. NET WT. 4.25 OZ - 120g
If you are looking for a natural deodorant, you should try this one.. it's good. I love it!
