hlp needed pls – anyone know where you can purchase aluminium free role-on deodorant?

I’m enquiring on behalf of my Mother who is concerned about the affects of aluminium in role-ons; she is trying her best to avoid this at all cost if at all possible. If anybody does know where you can purchase aluminium free role-ons I’d be very grateful of your help and will then pass any suggestions on to her ASAP.

Thank you in advance.

    Hi, Martin’s asked me to post this in these circumstances: I’ve asked Board Guides to move threads if they’ll receive a better response elsewhere (please see this rule) so this post/thread has been moved to another board, where it should get more replies. If you have any questions about this policy please email [EMAIL="abuse@moneysavingexpert.com"]!!!!!![/EMAIL].

    I buy this one from my local Holland and Barrett, I have tried other non-aluminum ones and they haven't worked on me but this one has!

    Sorry saintscouple, I should know better as I've been using these boards for a long time now. I never thought of posting on the I wanna buy-it board, will know better next time. :o

    Thanks for your help angellotz & sherbie28 and anyone else who might contribute. I'll pass these on to my Mum as soon as I can and she can decide for herself from there.

    Most appreciated!

    P.S. by the way ASDA and TESCO are selling 50ml Bionsen Aluminium Free Deodorant Roll-ons for £1.68

    Are the aluminium-free deodorants all of the roll-on variety? Are there any spray ones?
    Thanks to OP for this thread - I've ruined and had to chuck away a couple of nice workshirts with horrible armpit stains due to the aluminium compounds from my deodorants.

    You can also get Bionsen aluminium free pump spray antiperspirant deodorants from either ASDA or TESCo's, both sell them for £2.16 and come in 100ml bottles.
