Anyone know of a good NATURAL underarm deodorant?

I have become too sensitive to perfumes & even deodorant & would like to find a new & natural route.

You can also spray magnesium oil (diluted with distilled water) under your arms. Works great!

I really like Thai crystal deodorant stone. No chemicals or perfumes. Ive used it for years. available at whole foods or on line.

Just dont drop it for it will break and then you are using broken pieces no longer in a protective case.

I've been using Old Spice Figi scent.

It is a men's deodorant, but it is the only natural deodorant that works for me.

The Figi scent is nice.

I use the deodorant crystal as well. Put it on wet when in the shower. You may still sweat a bit, but no smell!

I'm real, real sensitive to everything, so I just use 50% rubbing alcohol.

Thank you. I will try them all one by one & see which one works best.

Any such thing as natural perfumes/colognes? What I do is try to spray a little on my shirt, as opposed to spraying directly on the body.

Tom's and the crystal one irritate me I have such sensitive skin.

These two I can tolerate are:

Alvera - Aloe unscented (has soothing herbs in it)

Miessence - Aroma Free (basically baking soda and aloe vera)

I've also used aloe vera gel. It's antibacterial.

Dr. Mist unscented. It's magnesium based.

Also lavalin, it lasts about 3 days. Beeswax, castor oil. But I can't recall if it has a fragrance or not.

I am really stinky-have tried all of the above mentioned and still have terrible bo.

Geodeo is the next runner up, made with zeolite.

You can use essential oils.

coconut oil helps soothe the skin and keeps away the smell.

I found the ingredients for lavilin. I wouldn't use it. It has Phenoxyethanol (a hormone disrupter) and "Fragrance" listed as ingredients.
