He won't use it . It's not an antiperspirant, just deodorant. Most guys need antiperspirant.

I've use it. I think the brand is called "Crystal"...maybe.
I bought it because it was unscented. I hate to smell like deodorant after I've spent so much money on a bottle of perfume so I am always willing unscented ones out.
It felt fine on the skin and it didn't give me any allergies (big plus there as I have sensitive skin!)
However...I felt stinky by the end of the day.
I go to gym pretty much every day so I need something that will keep me dry and "fresh" all day.
By mid day, however, I felt like I needed to apply more deodorant.
So I don't recommend it!
If you are looking for an organic deodorant that lists better...try Tom's of Maine. They have some called "long lasting" which are ok for the whole day...but again...organic deodorants usually need to be re applied before you go to the gym!

This is exactly what I have! I have been using crystal deodrant for about 15 years and will never use another thing under my pits. It's odorless and colorless, leaves no marks on my clothes and never a scent of B.O. all day long. I made my 12 year old use it instead of anti-perspirant, because it's got no aluminum or bad chemicals in it. I wouldn't trade it for the world! I think it's such a bargain, too. I get the rock at beauty supply stores for 15-20 bucks and it takes me years to use it up. It is not an anti-perspirant, so it only works on odor. Good luck, give it a shot!

Yes, it is widely used in Asia. It doesn't clog up pores like chemical deodorants do, so it is better for you.

If someone has super BO naturally, then no I don't think this'll work. Its great for someone who does not perspire too much. I use the liquid crystal deordorant and its just "ok"...

I used it and was not pleased with the results.
It is just alum in a cake

Happy Thanksgiving
Also Alum is really good to stop bleeding
