Rating:  - Only works temporarily...
This deodorant works for most of the day if I'm not too active. With a lot of activity and subsequent sweating, I found that after about three hours it didn't work anymore.
Rating:  - Super!
It's nice not to have to run around scratching my armpits like a monkey.
I tried a couple of other kinds of natural unscented deodorants. One smelled like pine trees (Tom's) and the other smelled like beer (Kiss my face). And considering that neither of them worked, they both smelled like body odor after a few hours. This was in the winter, too. And I sweat less than most people!!!
I purposely waited for summer and for my trip to Texas before writing this review. This deodorant is really REALLY scentless, I don't look like a monkey, and IT ACTUALLY WORKS. Like, I put it on ONCE in the morning and it works for the whole day.
Wicked Awesome!!!
Rating: - Itchy Skin & Rash after 6 months use
I have the same problem as the reviewer and her husband. I loved it at first and would still love it except now when I use it I start to itch under my arms. It is an uncontrollable itch and after scratching, red bumps start to appear and really irritate my skin. I wish I knew what is wrong because it really does work for controlling odor. It doesn't control perspiration but that is O.K because you want to allow the toxins to be released through sweat. It is the only deodorant I have tried that really controls odor and believe me I have tried them all. After stopping use of it the itching and rash goes away after 3 - 4 days.
Rating: - Great product !!
I bought the Crystal for Men mineral salts stick at the drug store back in October '07. I didn't know to dry it off after use, so it started deteriorating, so that eventually when I applied it, the craggy edges pulled my hair (sorry if that's TMI). Then I read the reviews for the roll-on here on Amazon and decided to try it. I've been using it for a week, and I just love it. I shower in the morning after the gym, so when I go to the gym at 5:30 a.m., I've had the stuff on for about 21 hours already, and it's still going strong. Yeah, I sweat, and a lot, but I don't stink, not at all. It's so freeing to wear this and when you take a shower you don't have to use steel wool to get products like Mitchum anti-perspirant off your skin. It really works, both the stick and roll-on. I'm a total convert. By the way, there's a fancy body product store here in Seattle - L'Occcutaine or something like that - that sells a mineral salt rock - for $21 - yes twenty one dollars. What a rip. This stuff's just as good and so inexpensive on Amazon.
Rating: - Very Effective!
I've tried both the roll on and crystal stick and this is my favorite of the two. It is VERY effective and you can feel good about using a product that is natural. It also seems somewhat effective in controlling wetness, even though it is not touted as such. I highly recommend this product!
