Crystal Deodorant & Soap Dish Set

Regular price $20.00

Keep your deodorant dry in between uses and it will last longer!

This soap dish has stands and will help to drain off the deodorant and keep it elevated. However, it is not suitable to be used in shower stalls or in places where it is constantly moist or wet or where it will constantly sit in water. Use this soap dish to dry soap after flicking dry, in a sunny or airy spot next to the window or at a dry part of your sink-top.

Deodorant usage: Run a bit of the deodorant under a tap and rub onto any area where you want to prevent body odour - yes, it will work on armpits and feet!

Regular commercial deodorants and antiperspirants contain harmful chemicals! Avoid these nasties with deodorant stones!

How does it work? It targets the bacteria on the skin surface, which is what causes smells. Using the crystal deodorant will not clog your pores or leave any residue or by-product. It will not stain clothing or have any sticky residue. It deodorises by acting on the bacteria. It is not an antiperspirant! Sweating is natural and important! 

What is it made of? Crystal deodorant is made from a natural mineral salt, potassium alum. Potassium alum it is not an antiperspirant and products containing it do not reduce sweat production.

It is not the same as Aluminium Chloride and Aluminium Chlorohydrate, which are commonly found in conventional antiperspirants and which people want to avoid! (Read more below)*

How long will one block last? It can last for a year or more, depending on usage!


Packaging
The deodorant is packaged in paper packaging. The product packaging is minimal! In line with our no-unnecessary-packaging shipping policy, we will pack your orders in REUSED and CLEAN bubble wrap when we ship it in order to prevent breakage. The bubble wrap would have been reused at least twice before being used to pack your order. If you DO NOT want reused bubble wrap, you can indicate a preference for us to use cardboard, but breakage will be at your risk. 

What is the difference between potassium alum and Aluminium Chloride and Aluminium Chlorohydrate?

Aluminium Chloride and Aluminium Chlorohydrate react with peptides and amino acids in the skin to form a gel which then blocks sweat ducts and glands, preventing perspiration. This is why they are used as antiperspirants in conventional deodorants. They have a small molecular mass (usually 250-350 Daltons) which means that they can readily penetrate the skin, entering the body.

Potassium alum has a much larger molecule (approx 480 Daltons) which is too large to be absorbed through the skin. Instead of forming a gel which prevents perspiration, potassium alum sits on the surface of the skin. It is anti-bacterial and does not allow the bacteria responsible for causing bad odours to multiply.
