Do Natural Deodorant Stones Work?
Well, speaking from my experience, and from the culmination of surveys, the answer is quite plainly – yes. In fact it works very well. However, it is not your traditional, mainstream fragrance loaded deodorant, or your chemical rich antiperspirant. It allows your body to sweat normally and therefore control body temp, but it prevents the bacteria causing odor found in sweat from developing.
I live a very active lifestyle, always moving around in relatively hot climates. I applied the Tade stone to my underarms in the morning after showering, and I remained odor free all day and well through the evening. To say the least, I was very satisfied with the odor preventing effects.
I also have very sensitive skin, and have had frequent allergic reactions to mainstream deodorants. However, the natural deodorant stone did not create any skin irritations. I even applied it to my face as an aftershave and it seemed to relieve razor burn.”

I was a little confused about the last sentence: “I even applied it to my face as an aftershave and it seemed to relieve razor burn”, thinking “hmmmm I wouldn’t have thought Emma shaved her face, but okay, I won’t judge that”. Then I saw that Craig wrote it
I had a good laugh. Anyway – good, informative article on this often confusing topic!!
LOL!!! Too funny… I thought it was great as well – I had no idea! The assumption is that all deodorant stones are natural and to find out otherwise was an eye-opener for me.

I found a great organic deodorant recently. Sante America. They have this Crystal Deodorat and it even has the BDIH certificate. I would highly recommend this product.
Chrystal, at their web-site http://www.thecrystal.com, states that their product are all natural, not synthetic.
In the Crystal web-site FAQ, it says that they harvest the mineral salts:
“Why do we refer to a “Rock” when discussing Crystal products?
Crystal created what is now called the “Rock” (also “stone”) category. It refers to the alum, or mineral salts that are harvested, shaped and molded into a rock-like material.”
On their products information page they have, “What makes Crystal™ deodorants unique are the powerful, all-natural mineral salts…”
