works when nothing else has
I have sensitive skin and am very sensitive to smell. Every deodorant I tried throughout my life ended up reacting weirdly to my body chemistry and smelling funky. I have used every major brand, style, all natural, organic, home remedies, etc. and those I didn't have a reaction to only ended up working for 12 hrs tops on a day when I wasn't exerting myself.<br /><br />I am 6 months into using this stone and I am so pleased. I did read another reviewer's suggestions to:<br />1) make sure you are squeaky clean and then dry before applying<br />2) apply to a larger area than you would think to so errant bacteria doesn't come calling<br />3) let fully dry before dressing<br /><br />PROS:<br />- long lasting. I can go a full strenuous day without any hint of smell (or even 48 hrs of lower activity)<br />- so affordable compared to all the fancy bars, creams, sprays, and tins I have tried. I am 6 months in and it is probably about half the size it was when I purchased it.<br />- great design- string is so helpful, shape is contoured, comes with carrying bag for travel<br /><br />CONS:<br />My only con is that it does add a good 3-5 minutes to my post-shower routine depending on how humid it is... but WELL worth it in my opinion.<br /><br />This little guy has made this sensitive sniffer so happy! My friends and family are getting tired of me jubilantly exclaiming, "I smell like nothing!"
