Strange as it may seem, one of the most highly-recommended deodorants is a push-up crystal made from mineral salts. PitRok contains no aluminium chlorohydrate or alcohol, unlike other deodorants, and has actually won awards for its natural effectiveness. The Sunday Times has twice voted it Best Deodorant on its style pages.
You apply the odourless natural crystal deodorant to wet skin and it leaves an invisible layer of mineral salts. Choose from spray or push-up applicators. Ideal for sensitive skin and keeps pits cool and unsmelly for ages.
Previous PitRoks have all been unperfumed, but now there is also a new fragranced spray. PitRok the company makes other products including the mysterious-looking Tongue Cleaner for

people with bad breath. Alternatively, a good plant extract roll-on - with the usual aluminium and alcohol - is the Boots Body Botanics cinnamon stick.
