Dear Kozy..

I have been experimenting with deodorants also...the other day I began using

Aubrey Hi-C deodorant roll-on. So far it is a winner. Aubrey's line of body

care products were recommended to me by Dr. and others. They are on-

line ready to take an order. My shipment arrived in two days without a

problem. If I notice any difficulties with this product I will report back.

Kozy,

I had the same problem with deodorants when I stopped using the ones

with metal in them. I've have found a brand that doesn't bother me. I

got it at the health food store here in Georgia. It's called Desert

Essence Natural Roll-on. I think these " natural " deodorants use salt,

which can be irritating.

Good luck!

Dear Kozy,

Why don't you try one of the deodorant mineral sticks that they sell in

the health food stores, and sometimes even good supermarkets. One brand

is called Thai crystal deodorant stone. There's no aluminum, its made

from mineral salts, is hypoallergenic, unscented, and non-staining. You

just wet it under water a little and apply it like normal. I'm sure

there's other equally good brands, but it should be all natural with no

chemicals.

Feel better.

What about those crystal like stones that they sell to use as deodorants? Has

anyone tried them yet? I used one a long time ago, but you had to wet it first

and then apply it, so I didn't really like the wet feeling, and gave it

up.Does anyone know if it is aluminum free? I will check one tomorrow when I

go to the Natural foods Market.. Chris

Oh yes..I keep a crystal on hand also....have for years.....but just at

home...it's messiness prevents me from wanting to travel with it..and it

usually does not do the trick on the tough days....I will continue to use

crytal but think I will add the Aubrey's HI-C for the tough days...and

travel....it to is a wet.........but good question if the crytal has any

aluminum in it....I will be interested in what is found out....

Yes, I tried one (am using it now when I go to workout). I find that it

is easier to wet the underarm instead of the crystal. Wetting the

crystal is way too messy!!

I just bought a new deodrant.... that does not have the anti-perspirant

(aluminum) in it. Its called: Crystal Clean deodorant by Lady speed stick. I

haven't tried it yet. My rash is clearing up so I'm going to wait another

day. Hurrah!!! I am going to try and see if this one works.

I can tell you that this recipe is waaaay too heavy on EOs. The normal

dilution rate is about 2.5 percent with a massage oil used once in a

while (about 12-15 drops of EO to one OUNCE of product or 30 mls of

carrier oils and butters, you have about 43 drops per one ounce in this

recipe), and LESS than one half of one percent in anything that is used

on the body daily. The suggested safe dilution rate for Rosemary, for

example, is one-tenth of one percent, for Lavender it is one-thirtieth

of one percent, for Tea Tree there is no data of a safe level for daily

use on the skin. This is especially important if you are using it on an

area can be irritated from shaving - like an underarm - or that has a

lot of body heat and moisture.

A dilution this high would be setting her up for sensitization to EOs

and that is a very, very ugly thing. Trust me, I know! It can

sometimes take years for sensitization issues to manifest, sometimes

less time, but it is always ugly and it is for life.

Best wishes, and if you need any help with the EO side of this, let me know-

Over the past seveeral years I have developed my own deodorant. At

first I just washed my pits with herbal soap after first putting GSE on

the sponge. Now I do the same but after getting out of the bath, I use

one drop of rose geranium/lavender EO and smear it around under my arm

pits. Seems to work well and feels better than something I don't know

anything about.

Hi ,

Calendula works for bacterial infection by building the body's

resistance to bacterial attack - it leaves the bacteria to die by

themselves - unlike antibiotics that interfere with bacterial metabolism.

So probably not useful as a deodorant as those bacteria are not

affecting the skin or body - not an infection.

Pity :-)))

My big problem would be in finding a base in which to put the items

selected - some kind of powder presumably. I'd not want it to have any

protein (as grains do) since protein can trigger irritation and allergy.

So far I have not experimented mostly for that reason of needing a good

base.

Namaste,

IRene

I have an anti-bacterial cream with calendula in a peanut oil base. It's

great for all kinds of little " owies "
