Salt of the Earth Natural Deodorant 90g

Product Information

Made from nothing but pure mineral salt, the classic crystal deodorant is the O.G. product and still going strong over 20 years later – so we jumped at the chance to put it to the test. Step in: Salt of the Earth. Established in the nineties, the brand's focus on 'environmentally friendly, natural skincare products that are as effective as they are ethical' has won over legions of fans – and plenty of awards in the process. The one inconvenience, which truthfully isn’t that bad, is that you need your pits to already be damp as you apply it. Or, a splash of water to wet the crystal. For example, crystal products such as Salt Of The Earth contain potassium alum, and PitRok is made from ammonium alum - both aluminium salts.

Natural and eco deodorants tend to work by neutralising odours and absorbing moisture, rather than preventing sweating. While plenty have moisture-absorbing ingredients, none are true antiperspirants.NATURAL DEODORANT - Formulated without synthetic additives, the Salt of the Earth Crystal Classic Natural Deodorant is 100% natural, gentle on your skin and made with natural mineral salts. The Salt of the Earth Natural Deodorant Spray bottles are recyclable and made from 100% plant derived plastic. Additionally, the Unscented Natural Deodorant Spray by Salt of the Earth can also be refilled using the Salt of the Earth 500ml or 1ltr Unscented Natural Deodorant Spray Refill, reducing plastic waste even further.

However, these particular salts only have a deodorising effect, and sit on the skin, whereas aluminium chlorohydrate and aluminium zirconium are antiperspirant ingredients that plug pores to prevent sweating. Salt of the Earth says a 1-litre spray refill uses 70% less plastic than buying 10 individual 100ml sprays. Effective protection: Long-lasting and effective protection from body-odour, keeping you feeling fresh, confident, and odour-free for longer. Say goodbye to ingredients like alcohol. Potassium Alum, which is the ingredient in Salt of the Earth’s crystal deodorant, has much larger molecules that do not fully cover your sweat glands. Therefore it allows you to naturally sweat whilst preventing the growth of odour-causing bacteria.A 45g jar lasts two months, so it's reasonable value for money, plus the availability of mini sizes is useful so you can try it before committing to a bigger size. Researchers have suggested that aluminium and paraben, the active ingredient in most antiperspirants, with cancer and Alzheimer’s. Though little evidence has been has found to substantiate this claim. Helps moisturise the skin: Formulated with natural moisturising factor, this deodorant helps moisturise your skin while keeping you fresh and odour-free. LOOKING to switch to a natural deodorant?

Others reported that it left greasy marks on their clothing if they dressed as soon as it was applied, so they preferred to let it settle a bit first.

The company says its products are 100% natural, free from preservatives, alcohol, artificial fragrance and palm oil, and are registered with The Vegan Society.My first impression after taking it out of the container is that it literally looks and feels like a large, smooth chunk of salt. I was admittedly apprehensive of how effective this would be. Wait… that sounds like the potentially harmful aluminium that you mentioned before? Nope- that’s Aluminium Chlorohydrate. Key ingredients include magnesium oxide and bicarbonate of soda (except in the Gentle range) to help prevent odours, as well as arrowroot for the sweat and shea butter to moisturise.

I was pleasantly surprised that it took just two days of using the crystal deodorant for me to get used to the new formula.
