About this deal

Despite the ‘alum’ in the name, this natural mineral salt isn’t the same as aluminium chloride or aluminium chlorohydrate found in regular antiperspirants. Dr Olioso says: 'It contains good active ingredients, so should be effective, but be aware that arrowroot - the most abundant ingredient - might leave white marks.' China has banned the use of aluminum compounds – acidic sodium aluminum phosphate, sodium aluminosilicate and aluminum octenyl succinate starch as food additives and aluminum-containing food additives shall not be used in the production of puffed food since July 1, 2014.

Now you may have a knowledge of the Leavening acid and Deodorant– Potassium Alum (E522), from the following aspects: Earths Purities Roll On Deodorant: I love the roll on Amalfi Coast. Neutrally scented, perfect for both women and men. Triclosan – This antibacterial agent is used to prevent bacteria from developing in deodorants and antiperspirants. You can rub it up and down or use a circular motion. Continue adding water to the stone and applying it until you feel you’ve covered your entire underarm. The natural crystal, potassium alum, potash alum or alum stone is totally unprocessed. Crystal deodorants labeled as ammonium alum contain synthetic ammonium, a by-product of the chemical and nylon industry. Synthetic ingredients may contain chemical residues and cause allergic reactions and ammonium alum is not such an effective deodorant.There are three formulations to choose from with this creamy paste-based deodorant: 'Clean' - for daily use/all skin types, 'Gentle' - for sensitive skin, and 'Active' - for more demanding days. It’s not yet clear what effect changing the armpit’s natural microbiome in this way has on our health, but some people are now turning to probiotic deodorants that use healthy bacteria to target odour-causing bacteria. Because it is an astringent and inhibits bacteria, some people use alum to reduce oily skin and acne. However, while no research indicates whether it is an effective treatment for either of these, anecdotal reports state that it helps. Before use, rub a new piece of alum crystal with a cloth in water to remove any angular edges before using on the skin. It will takes several weeks of gentle usage before the crystal becomes really smooth like the one in the photograph. People with end stage kidney disease have to rely upon dialysis to survive. In many respects they are like canaries in the coal mines. That’s because they are especially vulnerable to toxic chemicals.

Aluminium chloride and Aluminium chlorohydrate have a small molecular size and work as antiperspirants by entering sweat ducts and reacting with amino acids and peptides to form a gel. This gel then plugs the sweat duct and prevents sweating. This may seem like it shouldn’t be under the “benefits” list, but there may be some downsides to antiperspirants. Research shows that the active ingredient in antiperspirants, which is usually aluminum-based, reduces sweat by causing obstruction of the eccrine glands.When it comes to choosing an antiperspirant we all have our go-to brands, but a lot of big name products actually do contain aluminium chloride and/or aluminium chlorohydrate, including the following:
