'Natural' Deodorant?

[chaostrulyreigns]

My PFB is now 10 and her body is starting to mature.

She has veryvery delicate skin and I want to avoid putting harsh chemicals on her on a daily basis.

I would also like the product to be not too expensive and easily available.

Has anyone any suggestions?

pit rock

Agree with Pitrok. Dd2 uses it but she does need something else in the summer as she is particularly whiffy. I use it all year round. I think it's about £4.00 but seems to last forever.

My Dh uses pitrok and is not whiffy.

Thanks I shall try both.

Where do I get pitrok from?

Holland and Barrett do natural deodorants such as Pitrok, and other health food shops.

I get mine in Waitrose.

I just looked at Pitrok on-line and it said 'Do NOT wet under the tap'. (Their caps)Eeek! I always do that - now I'm scared something awful could happen to me

I thought the theory on 'harsh chemicals' in deodorants hadn't been proved.

None of the above work ime - I use mum and DD (12) uses Vaseline Intensive Care. It's really upsetting for young girls to feel 'smelly', but best of luck with the crystals.

Crystal ones like Pitrok are great - my sis gave me one for my hospital bag (was avoiding using soaps and chemicals for a couple of weeks after birth to help with skin-to-skin), and I was quite sceptical, but amazed how well it works. I honestly find it more effective than anti-perspirants like Mitchum.
No need to wet under taps if you have a morning shower, just whack it on while you're still wet! Can't see why doing that would be a problem though?

OLOPS I think I'm just very wary about what i put on her skin - she has Lichen sclerosis and her skin is very easily marked.

Thanks everyone for their suggestions.
