Finally a natural antiperspirant that works! I have tried so many natural deodorants over the years in order to avoid aluminum, but never had any luck until I tried this one. I've tried other ones from ToM, but they didn't seem to do the trick this one delivers and I can really sweat! It does tend to leave a hard to remove film where applied, but I just use exfoliating gloves in the shower and think that helps a bit.
I tried this after the Crystal brand deodorants, but did not like it for the same reason negative affect on body odor.
Like the Crystal brand, the scents smell pleasant by themselves, but not on.
Two friends and I found we might as well have worn nothing because this created a harsh odor not created by our own bodies. Not many adjectives for BO so I hope this makes sense: without deodorant, my body odor is mostly "mild"/sweet-smelling, but both brands produced a "bitter" type of smell. Not super intense (like others would notice it right away), but amplified in heat, and generally undesirable.
-I thought perhaps it could be because it has been very hot lately, and my job requires closed-toed shoes, pants, etc. despite the heat.
Not so, I noticed as soon as I started moving around at all even in my air conditioned house it produced an unpleasant smell. Never had this problem with Dove, Crystal took a bit more time. Friends had same results.
-I thought it could be my body chemistry or the scent. I tried their lavender years ago, and recently with the same results. Friends experiences were the same.
I will be trying another brand, and will not purchase Tom's in the future.
I produce very little underarm sweat (excepting vigorous exercise/extreme heat), so I can not attest to it's "anti-perspirant" claim.i use this an alternative to secret since it has antiperspirant in it and lacks some of the other harmful ingredients. i sometimes use deodorant only but this product seems to work better so i use it when i need more protection than just deodorant alone.I've been using Tom's of Maine Naturally Dry Womens Antiperspirant Stick for a couple of weeks now and it's working great.
I was a little disappointed that is contains aluminum but realize it is a natural mineral so is as advertised. I am thankful that
it doesn't contain any chemicals that can be absorbed into my body as almost all other deodorants do and I've been using them all my life. It feels good to know I'm no longer doing that to myself as I hope to live a long life and hope to not get cancer or another
painful, life-draining disease. I liked it a lot buying more. Used to use Mitchum solid stick but can't find it. Found this to be very similar.
