Body Crystal Fragrance Free Deodorant Review

I really wanted this product to work. I had heard about crystal deodorants for a while and liked the idea behind them. Unfortunately for me it didn't work. I am not a big sweater, but I did notice that I wasn't as fresh at the end of the day as I am with other deodorants.

I also think I like a bit of fragrance in a deodorant (this one has none) and also the roller was very stiff and didn't roll smoothly.

I have tried many natural deods over my life.....this one does what it says, i am a heavy swetter and find most natural deods work for a while but not all day - body crystal rolls on well but can feel a bit sticky so i give it time to dry before getting dressed. I havnt had any yellow marks on my clothes either.

When I got this all I could think was, bit bigger than the Dove I am currently using. Dove 50ml. Body crystal 80ml. This came in a nice roller bottle with a white and purple label on it. It does say unscented on the bottle but the when doing the sniff test it reminded me of a salt jar. A big salt jar that mum used to use for cooking with.

I apply this as you would normally apply underarm and allow to dry. It also seems to be a bit better when you have no or minimal underarm hair, too much hair could stop it from covering well. I also notice that the ball didn't seem to roll the most smoothly until coated in product all over. There is no change on the scent with application and the salt smell is not noticeable for me. It seems to last me all day but it might be a little different depending on how active you are. I do a little walking and work in a call center under aircon, no sweating required but if you are a high sweat person this may not be for you.

Pricewise this is a bit more than the average deodorant in the supermarket so it's not something I would normally reach for but as this came by the vault I thought it would be a good thing to try. The ingredient list is short and no aluminum in it, first one of this type I had tried but I really couldn't see the difference without it so it will probably be back to the cheaper ones when finished.

I picked up this deodorant from one of the beauty vaults. I really like the idea of using something more natural under my arms and I've heard that crystal is such a great natural product to use. This is a pretty convenient product as it incorporates the crystal in a convenient roller ball bottle.

This is packaged just like any other deodorant, except it has a bit more product in it so I think thats good especially as you do pay quite a bit more for this. I find this easy to use, it rolls on nicely and dries reasonably quickly with no residue going on my top after. This says it is unscented. To me this has an incredibly strong vinegar scent. I can be in the bathroom after using a scented body wash, scented lotion plus perfume and I can still smell this the most. I also catch whiffs of it throughout the day if I lift my arm which I really dislike. I could maybe get past this if I really enjoyed the product though. While I feel like it is stopping me from smelling like BO, I sort of feel slightly sticky under my arms and I just feel a bit unclean as well. I haven't put this to the test by doing a big sweaty workout but it has been ok on some really hot days. I don't think I'd feel confident using it in the high summer heat though.

I'm going to stop using this for now but I'll keep it and see if I want to use it again when the weather gets cooler. I really hate not using something up and since it does work, I'd like to give it another go. I think if you can get past the smell and really want to try out something natural, this could be the product for you.

This was a BR Vault haul item for me (from the May 2016 vault) but I only opened it two weeks ago.

Upon the first application, I realised that the roller ball doesn't roll very smoothly. I had to press really hard (not ideal) and roll vigorously just to get a little product out before the ball got stuck again. I put this down to it still being new but I'm now two weeks in and I'm still battling to roll the deo on under my armpits! I must have a faulty roller ball.

The actual deodorant is unscented and smells slightly salty and mineral-like and it does sting ever-so-slightly on freshly shaved armpits, although there was no irritation after it had been applied. I like the fact that it's unscented and it doesn't compete with my perfume or scented body lotion.

So far, it's working well for me (on days when I can actually get enough product out before I give up), although there has been a day or two where I've rolled the deo under my armpits, thinking that it's dispensed product only to find later in the day that I don't think the ball moved at all as there hasn't been much protection and I've been a little smelly at the end of the day. Thankfully, the weather is still pretty cool and my perfume has sort of covered me. I'd hate for this kind of rollerball fail to happen in summer!

Would I buy it again? If this rollerball doesn't sort itself out soon, I'm going to have to buy another one just so that I can see if I actually have a faulty bottle or if they're all like this.

Would I recommend it? I'm not sure. It's hard to tell if the product is decent when the dispensing mechanism is being extremely temperamental!

I bought this in the mother's day beauty box . Normal looking roll on deodorant ion a white container with lavender colours of crystal shades and lavender and black writing. With 80 mls this is a generous size and has a good screw white opaque top.The ball roll freely with plenty of product. Not tested on animals and made in Australia .I miss a scent as this is scent free however this is a good product. I get hot really easily and I found using this deodorant really good and definitely left no white stains on my clothes.At $13.80 it is a little dearer than usual but as it is a natural product and a good size I feel it is value for money.

I have tried a lot (!!) of the more natural, aluminum free deodorants over the years and this is definitely one of the better ones in my opinion.

I got it from Healthpost for about $12. It has a delicate and pleasant floral scent, is really easy to apply (roll on) and does a pretty good job of keeping me smelling fresh and feeling dry.

I work outside in the heat and this really does work (although I am not a huge sweater). I highly recommend this and will be buying again.

I love this crystal stick. I have not seen these around or talked about even. It should be more readily available. This is the best I've ever used for getting rid of b.o and so natural. I'll be getting this for my soon to be teen. So much better for their sensitive delicate skin. And won't clog the pores

I go to the gym every second day and using this product I found I wasn't as near as sweaty smelling as I normally am. I enjoy the fact that it has no fragrance which prevents body odour and fragrance mixing together which is still unpleasant. I would definitely buy this product again as it stops the body odour directly from the source of perspiration instead of covering it up like other deodorants.

Love this deodorant! I hardly perspire at all when wearing this which is awesome. Doesnt leave any colour stains on clothes which is a massive plus. It smells lovely and soaks into your skin quickly. Very effective and would definitely reccomend to my peers
