   Natural deodorant that feels a bit watery due to it’s spray head that doesn’t leave a mist on your skin, more like water drops. Makes you feel a bit too wet under the armpits, so if you want to wear a tight shirt, you have to wait a bit until it has dried. No fragrance. My spray head stopped working halfway through, had to fill it in another container.

   Pros:
   -really does prevent odor all day for me, even in warm weather
   -doesn’t stain clothes
   -very few ingredients (water, potassium alum)
   -doesn’t interfere with perfume

   Cons:
   -not an antiperspirant (you still sweat)
   -applies wet so you have to wait a minute before getting dressed
   -maybe not optimal for traveling, as it’s a bit on the bulky and heavy side
   -stings after shaving, so I used a different product on those days
   -on me, I found it turned my skin yellowy after I’d been using it about three weeks

   I think this is a good product, but I have moved on to using the Crystal Body Roll-On (unscented). It doesn’t have those last three cons listed above, and I think it dries more quickly.

   Also, as an asthmatic, I try not to use spray products that do get in the airways, no matter how natural the product is.

   If you don’t shave your underarms and don’t mind using sprays, you’ll probably like it more than me. If that’s you, I recommend this if you’re looking for a deodorant (not an antiperspirant) that works and you don’t mind using potassium alum (I know there are some people who feel healthwise it’s not that different from using aluminum chloride.)

   This is now my husband’s staple. He prefers a spray product and finds it works better than stuff he was using before.

   This works for me identically to Crystal Body Deodorant Spray. I have copied/pasted bits/pieces from that review to save me some time + added some new addtl info. Again, this performs just as well as Crystal + has the exact ingredients in the exact same order:

   HALLELUJAH!!! What follows is rather personal, so if TMI bothers you, please stop here.

   I am a HUGE fan of the Crystal Deodorant Roll-On (unscented) and Crystal essence Deodorant Roll-On (chamomile/green tea, lavender/white tea) – see my reviews on those.

   For the past couple of years, I have been struggling w/ BO resultant from sweat forming underneath my breasts (don’t you just LOVE droopy, post-breastfeeding breasts) in my cleavage and upper inner thighs where the crease is between my leg and trunk of body. I thought this problem would go away or significantly decrease w/ my recent (and rather significant) weight loss, but nope 🙁 I have been using powder, glycerin/rose water (my own mixture), various body lotions = powder worked the best, but its messy and certainly not very portable (I ALWAYS end up w/ spillage in my purse), but its better than walking around paranoid that I smell.

   I have been using Crystal Body Deodorant Spray (fragrance free) for many months w/ miraculous results – really, life changing for me. NEW INFO: A Whole Foods just opened near me (1st one ever – whee!!) and I went there to stock up on my Crystal Body Deo products = they don’t carry the spray, but do carry Naturally Fresh spray. I purchased in hopes it would perform as well as Crystal – IT DOES!!!! Almost 24 hours of NO ODOR!! WHOO HOO!!!

   I spray this underneath both breasts, in my cleavage and a small squirt on my upper/inner thighs (avoiding the most personal area) and basically waited a minute (in a rather funny position – legs a bit apart, holding up both breasts) waiting for this to dry (my husband thought I had lost my mind when he walked into the bathroom) 😛 and then went about my normal routine.

   My typical day = 14 hours later (a full work day, a 1.5 hour gym workout, family dinner, put child to bed) = NO DISCERNIBLE SMELL – OMG – I think I’m gonna cry!! Seriously, I cannot convey to you how much this problem has bothered me and while I was just hoping to make it thru the workday – NEVER in a million years did I expect this product to work THRU AEROBICS and weight lifting!! BONUS!!

   I have used Crystal for over 2 years now and Naturally Fresh for over a week (including aforementioned workouts/schedules mentioned above cut/pasted from my Crystal review). So thankful for these and now I even have options!!!

   I am always SOOOO skeptical when I come across reviews that say the product is “life changing” – but for me, THIS ONE TRULY IS!!! I no longer have to worry about BO develping due to sweating = much higher level of self-confidence + a LOT less stress (I can’t tell you how much brain power I expended worrying about whether or not I was smelly during the day even w/ showering daily, using deoderants – regular + feminine, powder, etc)

   Truly HG for me 🙂

   This just didn’t work for me. It would always fail, usually around halfway through the day. Reapplying did nothing. I didn’t expect it to block or absorb sweat of course, but it didn’t help with BO too much for me.
   
   I had this in the lavender scent, which didn’t last on the skin at all. So it was pretty much unscented.

   I’ve been using Mitchum solid for 20 plus years and had no idea there is such a thing as a holistic natural deodorant. At Solarice Spa, I sampled a body spray called Crystal Body Deodorant. It’s such a fantastic product that I went to London Drugs to buy one but found Naturally Fresh on sale at $2.50. Naturally Fresh is just a good a product. My clothes feels clean and fresh throughout the day and evening without the Mitchum stain and gunk.

   Good product that is paraben/PG free. No aluminim cholorhydrate. It’s hypoallergenic. I use fragrance free. Use on underarms and can be used on feet ~ or spray in your shoes to rid of odor. Does not control/stop wetness if that is your biggest concern. Your body needs to have some wetness as a natural cooling factor. If you have a problem using the deodorant crystal rock, try the spray. Good to apply after bathing/showering to work into the system. If you think it is not working for you, try exfoliating the underarm area. A health specialist told me people forget to do that area on their body. It does make a difference, too.

   THIS IS A DEODORANT-ONLY PRODUCT, NOT AN ANTIPERSPIRANT.

   Deodorant: product that blocks or inhibits odor.

   Antiperspirant: product that blocks perspiration, or “sweat”.

   Anyone who suffers from underarm odor really needs to look at this product! I sweat like any normal person, but I tend to get stinky pits. Usually traditional combination antiperspirant/deodorant products will work pretty well, but then they begin to fail on me after a few weeks and I develop noticeable odor by the end of the day. I’ve used regular and clinical varieties and none have maintained efficiency for odor, though they work well for moisture.

   At the beginning of the summer, I started using Naturally Fresh Spray Mist on the advice of a store associate. Naturally Fresh sprays on like water and you have to let it dry on the skin. Once dry, it feels like nothing. My underarms felt like clean SKIN and not like a skin with a waxy film. Odor was kept completely at bay, too. In fact, it STILL is kept at bay 4 months later! All this time later, I can go 24 hours without a shower and my underarms are 98.5% without smell (at that level, I can only detect odor if I try hard to ‘sniff it out’).

   In short, Naturally Fresh blows away traditional deodorants and is the only deodorant that keeps on working for me. My body hasn’t become immune to the product.

   If you need an antiperspirant (something that blocks sweat), then you’ll have to use other products. You may layer this under your antiperspirant. Apply Naturally Fresh and let dry completely. Then, apply an antiperspirant.

   I’m done trying any deodorant product with “crystal” in the title – this didn’t work felt like water. I’m sticking with Weleda!

   I got the Ocean Breeze type. It works great for me. I don’t sweat as much. I think the anti-persperants were making me sweat or something! I got this at Big Lots for 2.50 and I don’t think it’s usually over 5 bucks anywhere else. I like it.

    I ABSOLUTELY LOVE this stuff. I have been searching for a good deodorant for a long, long time, and VOILA! Naturally Fresh Deodorant Crystal Spray Mist is the one for me. I’ve tried Dove, Secret, Teen Spirit (in my younger days), Degree, Adidas, and many different sprays and roll on gels. NONE of them are as good as this. Granted, if you’re looking for a ANTIPERSPIRANT, this wont work. This deodorant doesn’t stop you from sweating, but it DOES eliminate ALL of the odor. It instantly neutralizes any odor coming from sweat. And better yet, it’s so GENTLE. I have the papaya fusion one, and I think it’s the best by far. It’s hypoallergenic, Paraben/ PG free, and there’s no Aluminum Chlorohydrate.

    I bought it from a local Health Food store (I believe this is ALL NATURAL as well) for about $6 USD. And it lasts for SO long… I spray each underarm twice or three times (if i miss lol), and i’ve been using it since December… it’s already February and i’m not even halfway… and its a TINY bottle!

    I love this and I hope they never discontinue it. You smell neutral even AFTER a workout! =]
