Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

First of all, I must point out that this product has been mislabeled here as an "antiperspirant", which it is not (natural deodorants never are, since the "antiperspirant" ingredients are what potentially cause cancer.) This product's label, clearly seen in the picture, advertises it as being an "aluminum free, paraben free, natural deodorant." Ok, having cleared that up, I am happy to report that this deodorant is absolutely fantastic! It smells wonderful (a crisp, clean, almost sporty-like scent, like the smell of many men's body washes...I'm a total girly-girl, however, and the sporty fragrance doesn't bother me at all or make me feel like I smell manly or anything.) Even better than the way it smells, though, is the fact that I don't feel like I'm just covering up my own body odor. I live in the southern CA desert, where it is 110°+ the whole summer, and sweating is completely unavoidable. Any other natural deodorants I've tried recently (Tom's of Maine, various salt crystal types, Jason, and a few others I can't recall off the top of my head right now) did nothing to prevent the sour pit odor that can occur in miserable summer temps, no matter how fastidious I was regarding my personal hygiene! I didn't want to, but I finally had to give up on using safer, healthier, "natural" deodorants because I couldn't stand my own stench (and I'm pretty sure others around me couldn't stand it, either!) I reluctantly went back to using an antiperspirant deodorant that has aluminum and paraben in it...effective against sweat and odor, but at the risk of causing cancer?? Yikes. My mom found this product while she was on vacation, and decided to give it a try, even though we'd both concluded that natural deodorants just don't work as well - or even at all - as regular antiperspirant deodorants do. Thank goodness we've been proven wrong! Finally, here's a natural deodorant which I can feel safe and comfortable using, it works all day, smells terrific, and keeps me from smelling like a funky hippie! :) (I'm all for a green, holistic, all-natural lifestyle, but...you know what I mean??) I highly recommend this deodorant!
