Ask morning crowd. Favorite deodorant with

Crystal body deodorant. It works like a charm, no residue, and all natural since it is made of mineral salts. I love it!

This is from the Crystal website "Deodorants work by masking, suppressing, or preventing body odor. Deodorants do not tend to reduce the amount of perspiration the body produces.Antiperspirants, on the other hand, use a variety of chemicals that artificially clog pores.Mainstream antiperspirants have as their main ingredient(s) Aluminum Chlorohydrate, Aluminum Zirconium, Aluminum Chloride, Tricholorohydrex Glycine, and Aluminum Hydroxybromide – all controversial ingredients that are potentially unhealthy for our bodies."

Alba Botanica Clear Enzyme Deodorant in Lavender when I'm not.

Dove or Secret, whatever is on sale lol

I use Suave. Nothing else works very well for me. I think everyone's body chemistry is different, so you kind of have to do trial and error until you find your fit.

Mine is the suave cucumber melon. Only that and mitchum works for me, and I would rather smell like cucumber melon than Mitchums...... ew

Suave here too. Tropical Paradise for now.

I can't use much of anything else after a few tries. Ban is the worst for me. I can wear it about a day or two and then after that it reacts to my sweat and smells off. Not like stinky, but just off and drives me (and my nose) crazy.

I go back and forth between the origonal "Speed Stick" and the coconut Old Spice.

I had an Ex Girlfriend who, many years later, told me she cannot smell Speed Stick without thinking of me.

Certain Dri Antiperspirant A.M. stick - they don't test on animals

I stopped using antiperspirant long ago, when my biology teacher filled us in about how terrible it is for you. I've been using Tom's of Maine and it works just fine.

These are just some of the ingredients in antiperspirant deodorant:

Aluminum: Aluminum is a neurotoxin linked in studies to detrimental health effects in lab animals. It was thought to be associated with Alzheimer’s, but data is inconclusive and controversial. One human study found it in breast tissue, and given the proximity of armpits to breasts, it seemed to indicate aluminum's ability to migrate from the armpit into the body. Perhaps that's thanks in part to....

Penetration enhancers: That's a fancy term for ingredients that help carry other ingredients—often the active ones—into your body so they can do their job. There are many different kinds, like propylene glycol and Disodium EDTA. Often, these ingredients on their own are not the worst of the bunch—but they can be problematic because they basically work as an express lane for the absorption of more troubling ingredients.

Triclosan: Triclosan is an antibacterial agent that is so controversial that even the FDA is getting mad about it. It's in antiperspirant and deodorant because the thing that makes people smell is bacteria—not sweat. It's been shown to be a hormone disruptor capable of changing the sex of fish, and it's also suspected to be responsible for certain strains of resistant bacteria.

Fragrance: A major difference between one brand's "Swagger" antiperspirant and its "Classic" is the smell—a proprietary blend of chemicals lumped together under the vague rubric of "fragrance." Check last week's post for a refresher on why this blanket term is often hiding possibly problematic other ingredients inside your products.
BHT: While less commonly used, this bad-boy is linked in studies to nervous-system effects at low doses, is dubbed "expected to be toxic or harmful" by Environment Canada's Domestic Substance List, and there are studies linking it to the C-word.

I like Secret Natural deodorant which is a lot less aluminum than most, but it's my weekend only, not for summer use deodorant.
