 |
|
Has anyone found a good aluminium free deodorant/antiperspirant in Korea?
Apparently it's the aluminium salts in the spray reacting with my sweat that are causing the armpit stains on my t-shirts, and not because I'm a dirty, dirty boy. |

aren't most deodorants aluminum free to begin with?
I thought it was anti-perspirants that contained aluminum |

I'm not 'Sure' of the technicalities... Is a deodorant just a smell to cover up the bad ones?
Basically I need something that keeps me dry and won't react with my sweat, that is available in Korea. |

Bingo... Anti-perspirants clog up the pores with aluminum and don't let sweat out. Get yourself some deodorants and deal with sweat. It's much healthier for you. |

| I used to use anti-perspirants, but I heard it's possible that the Aluminum causes Alzheimer's. Better safe than sorry. |

| I got some of the Body Shop stuff. Of course, nothing is going to make me 100% dry or not sweaty, but it's working better than that other stuff I was using before. |
