Crystal Deodorants

I have been using crystal deodorant for some time now and I could not use anything else now!!

The raw material of crystal deodorants is potassium alum, which is a naturally occurring mineral salt (sulfate mineral)   It is derived from the oxidation of sulfide minerals and potassium-bearing minerals; and appears as a white to colorless translucent crystalline stone. It looks like a crystal, such that it is translucent, colorless and contains small fracture lines, or veins.

 Since all forms of potassium alum are soluble in water, when the stone is wet or applied to wet skin, an invisible, fine layer of the mineral is rubbed off the stone and applied to the skins surface.  The mineral layer quickly dries, and rests on the skin.

When we sweat we release salt and water through sweat glands in the skin, it does does not have a bad smell, but the bacteria on our skin that eats sweat and excretes waste that has a strong odor. The bacteria grows in the moist of our sweat . 

Potassium alum is a natural anti-microbial, which means that when it comes in contact with bacteria,  it inhibits its growth. We need our sweat as the body needs to maintain its proper course of eliminating toxins through sweat, as well as controlling body temperature.

Crystal deodorants are natural, no added chemicals or fragrances.  And, as previously mentioned, natural crystal deodorants allow the body to sweat, but without odor.
