Probably not a natural deodorant.
Although I don’t think this was a problem on behalf of the seller in any way, (since the item was shipped quickly and arrived in good condition) I’m not very impressed with this deodorant. I’m used to using Schmidt’s brand but I figured I would give this Crystal brand a try because it was cheaper and it looked like a natural option. Although it seemed to help perspiration more, two days after used I developed some really painful/swollen lymph nodes, which was the main reason I switched from using mainstream/unnatural deodorant altogether. I had a sneaking suspicion this is not truly an all natural deodorant or anti-perspirant... When trying to research which ingredient should be causing the problem for me, I read that when you use crystal deodorant, you should check to make sure it does not have Alum in it as alum is short for Aluminum. This deodorant lists alum as an ingredient but claims it’s from mineral salts. This is not a healthy deodorant to he using since it can apparently prevent your body from expelling toxins to the extent that you get inflamed lymph nodes. Not to mention it doesn’t last 24 hours, more like five.
