I was surprised just as you when I was told actually all deodorants, until stated otherwise, contain either aluminum chlorohydrate
or aluminum zirconium.
I too, was under an impression that it's just antiperspirant which contains aluminum,
turns out they just have more of it.

Crystal rock deo for sure don't have it,

Tom Of Maine, if it STATES its aluminum free, then by law they are obligated to
have it free of aluminum indeed.

But if it does not says so, I would be wary.

Interesting about Old Spice:

Damaging Ingredients in Old Spice | Care2 Healthy Living

Looks like your decision to switch to ToM was very smart.

Colour me surprised too as well. I had wondered about that several times in the past, but I wouldn't be surprised if that is in fact, the case with most products. I've always gotten a rash from pretty much any deodorants I've tried in the past. Old Spice was the only one I could use, but I still had to be careful to not use too much at once. Tom's of Maine is aluminium-free according to the label.

If you apply the anti-perspirant deodorant to it everyday, it prevents your body from releasing the toxins, what happens instead is that the toxins will accumulate within the body. Aluminum is also a real concern since it has been linked to cancer and several diseases including Alzheimer's.
really? now i don't know if my deodorant is safe to use :/ will have to check the ingredients again

However, we are sweating everywhere on our bodies,
it's not like we sweat only under arms...

just think of hot summer day and those beads of sweat forming practically everywhere. 'member that drippy forehead, a tiny stream in the back?

1.) How many times a day do you use deodorant? Twice
2.) How many swipes Many, many
3.) How long does your deodorant usually last? only 3 to 6 hours for a workday, regardless of brand
4.) What deodorant do you use? Currently it is Dove. It smells nice but does not work well.
5.) What kind of deodorant is it? (gel, white, clear-like, etc) White
6.) How long have you used this deodorant? 1 & 1/2 containers only. Too cheap to toss it out.
7.) Do you change deodorants often? Yes, always looking for the one that will work. My job is lots of work ... eww.

I use Donna Karan Cashmere Mist.
It's the only thing I splurge on, otherwise I am cheap, lolol

Has anyone with excessive sweating problem tried Botox for it?

I don't have this problem, but my friend has
did it once, said it is painful but worth it, last up to 4-6 months..
The downside - it's expensive.

1.) How many times a day do you use deodorant? Several squirts once a day

2.) How many swipes (rub on or roll on) do you do each time you use your deodorant? (If you rub your armpits up, down, up, down, up... that would be 5 swipes.) none, i don't use roll-ons lol

3.) How long does your deodorant usually last? I have no idea D:

4.) What deodorant do you use? Charlie Black

5.) What kind of deodorant is it? (gel, white, clear-like, etc) Uh...Clear..maybe? LOL

6.) How long have you used this deodorant? You mean the deodorant can I have now or the fragrance? :S lol

7.) Do you change deodorants often? I like Charlie Black so I tend to stick to that lol
