Healthy For You

[augusta]

I was put on all natural ingredient stuff earlier when I had this horrific skin rash that lasted for months and months. I find that I enjoy using the natural products (thank God there are a lot out there now).

A few years ago, people were talking about anti-perspirants with aluminum chlorohydrate in them being dangerous (causing breast cancer was one thing). But I could never find one that didn't contain it.

I have been using the "Deodorant Crystal" that comes in a plastic holder with cap. The thing was, you had to be real careful before you put it on to make sure it or the cap did not smell bad. And once you got so far down, the ends would wear down and have sharp points and cut you when you applied it. My son-in-law suggested filing the points down, and that might work. But ...

I found something better last week. It's made by the same company that makes the crystal. But this is a roll-on. The bottle is opaque and the cap is big and blue. It says "Naturally Fresh Deodorant Crystal" at the top of the label, then "Roll-On". Bless the person that finally thought this one up.

It may be a new product. It's 3 ounces, and it only cost $3.19 at the store - less expensive than regular deodorant and more for your money. This deodorant (like the crystal in hard form) is so good, it will remain effective for two days, if need be. Like if you take a shower one morning, then don't shower the next morning but shower that night, it still works.

I'm turning my family on to natural things. I figure if we can get away from the chemicals, it can't hurt.
