Thai Crystal Deodorant Stone in Decorative Basket, Unscented, 3.5 Ounce

I love this deodorant, have used it for years. It last me a long time. Mine has never broke or cracked. Could do without the little white plastic basket it comes in. Never use it and seems like a waste to me.

Works good!

Amazing product. I can't get over how this little stone can keep me smelling fresh throughout the day (even on these extra hot summer days)!

I wanted to give this a couple of weeks before writing a review. I followed what commenters said and used this with my natural deodorant for a few days before trying this on its own. Not only did not work while using my natural deodorant with it, it absolutely didn't work AT ALL after only 10 minutes using it alone. Now... I've always needed extra deodorant since I hit puberty over 30 years ago, but really? You see people do a swipe or two of deodorant and they go about their day. Not me. I have always had to slather it on in order for any deoderant to work, but this only made things worse. Maybe it's me. I'm a whole food, plant based vegan who only puts good things in her body, but I just can't with this. If I could rate it at zero, I would. Maybe it works for some, but if you are a re-applier like me with regular deodorant, I don't think this will work for you.

I searched for an antiperspirant/ underarm deodorants alternative for many years but kept putting it off for reasons that I tried so many that just didn't work. Theirs so many products in the stores that are chemically base and I didn't want to end up sickly later in life or ever hear my doctor say “ you have cancer”.something that I can avoid when deciding to select natural alternatives to use on my personal body. Many years ago I found a crystal that worked well but, I lost track of where I purchased it from. I even tried stainless steal soap bars advertised as a replacement for under arm antiperspirant and other crystals from a few different web sites that just did not provide the antiperspirant capabilities for at least a full day and actually that stone was a Thai crystal just as this one is. Apparently they are not the same. This one however, has a very light scent that would not overpower perfume if I decided to wear it. This crystal is a pretty large piece of crystal which means that it could last throughout the years. The shape of the top is rounded which is very appropriate for the usage as you slide it underneath your arm pit. The bottom of the crystal is squared giving it the ability to sit well into the miniature basked it comes with. The basket is also made of a woven wicked type of fabric that is coded for water proof abilities. After using it, rinsing it off with hot water and storing it back inside of the basket. So fare it’s brilliant. The price is reasonable and it serves it purpose well. Go ahead and make the purchase.

I've been using the Thai Crystal Deodorant stones for about 10 years now. It's a wonderful product and really changed the way I use deodorant. I can tell when I forget to use it, and living in the desert for the majority of that time frame deodorant was really important. Haha. One stone will last me about 10-16 months, so it's clearly a good value for the money. It does take some getting used to, as you have to wet the stone before applying, so it can drip during application. I have super sensitive skin and the only time it has irritated, is if I apply immediately after shaving. The only real complaint I have about the product is that it can get slippery, and when dropped turns into a lot of tiny and sharp shards. Cleaning it up is like trying to clean glass. Outside of this, I have no reservations in recommending to anyone.

I like the idea of a natural crystal deodorant and the product arrived well packaged, but for me it was not strong enough. I did not notice long-lasting odor protection even when applying it correctly on damp skin. It might be good for people with very light perspiration, but it did not meet my personal needs.

You might wonder how rubbing a salt crystal on your skin would help keep you from smelling like BO, and I wouldn't blame you. It feels like I'm skipping something when I just "apply" the wet bar to my underarms, rather than a thick paste or gel, but I gotta say, it works! If you're coming from an anti-perspirant, give it a week or so because your body has to get rid of the chemicals, but it'll pay off. It's a great value for your money. This crystal will last for a VERY long time. I had one that lasted over a year. Just make sure you're careful not to drop it - when it's wet, it shatters easily and even if you salvage some big chunks, they won't be as smooth as the were and you can scratch yourself up easily.

Let me start by saying that the 'headline' is completely true - these wonderful stones work really well, and can last and last. This product is of good size, and the holding basket is great/useful - I'll probably get 5-years of use, which is incredible, and so environmentally-friendly. Price, service, packaging and delivery were all good. But I did make a bit of an error, for I saw "2-pcs", and thought that I was ordering 2 packs - not item consists of 2-pieces. I did spot my mistake, but I retained the order for we all need to be kind and help each other out right now. Wishing you all the best.

I only received one of the two pieces and it’s impossible to return, get a replacement or anything at all. DO NOT BUY
