moneysaving deodorant

angchris

last month i treated myself to a pitrok crystal deodorant, i was a bit sceptical but my friend insisted that they were fab so for about £5 in asda i bought one, now im normally a cheap n cheerful typa gal and will basically buy anything cheap so long as it works and i dont smell! so i normally end up with spraycans of own brand deodorant for less than £1 these normally last about a month give or take so i was abit :eek: at shelling out a fiver!
anywayyyy i have been trying it out and i can honestly say that after a very heavy manual shift at work today i dont stink :j not even a whiff of nastiness!:T now here comes the money saving bit my friend has had hers for 18 months :eek: :eek: and i have been using mine for a month and it still looks brand new so im sure it will last at least the 12 months that it says on the packaging its so easy to use as well, just wet the crystal and use or use on damp skin after being in the shower, theres not many things that impress me but this has! so for my fivers investment i now dont have to shell out for smellies for another year or so yayyyyyyyyy:D

I have seen this many times in the shops and heard they last for ages but still have not tried them.

I think I may have to give them a go.

I'ma big fan of lush stuff. Their solid shampoo is about £3.75 a block, but lasts ages. I'm still using one I bought at Christmas! All natural too, no rubbish in them. The bath bombs are great too. Ickle Baby Baff is just the thing for getting irritable DD to sleep when teething.

this sound good, think i will invest and try, will save on packaging too very enviromentally friendly, is it just asda you can get them from?

I used to have one of these deodorants. I can vouch that i never stank. Howver after 2 months the crystal stank and i couldnt bear to use it anymore so threw it away

I had the same issue as cantcope in that the crystal itself got stinky (tried to wash it with soap but it went all funny and rough on the outside).

But, you get deodorant by Bionsen which is lots of small crystals in a spray, you add water to them, shake them up and spray it on like a spray deodorant. It says on the bottle that you can refill it 5 times, but I refilled the bottle over and over again until the crystals totally dissolved, probably more like 50 times, and it worked right until the end. I've been using it for ages now, I'd really recommend it.

Thriftlady, how much did it cost and where did you get it from?
