PitROK Original Crystal Natural Deodorant Stick 1x100g. Refillable 'Push-Up' Format. Vegan, Cruelty Free, Fragrance Free. Sensitive Skin.

I used to get cheap roll-ons and thought they were economical. My wife introduced me to these, and I thought it was really expensive for a single deodorant. That was in June 2012; it is now Feb 2022. I have been using this every day for nearly a decade, and I have no doubt that it will last through this June to hit the ten year mark, and probably beyond.Perhaps a couple of weeks a year I've used my travel deodorant instead, but daily for around fifty weeks a year for ten years, this has done the trick for me. 3,500 uses. That is about 60p a year, or under 0.2p a day.OK, so the price actually turns out to be amazing given how long it lasts, but does it work? For me it definitely seems to work well. This is not an antiperspirant: I avoid those because I don't like the idea of something clogging up my pores. And to be fair, I'm not a profuse sweater. On occasional really hot days when I'm outside a lot and working hard armpits can get a little damp, but what this PitRok seems to do is stop germs breeding and producing unpleasant odours. A few drops of water on the old pits followed by a good rub with this each morning seems to keep any aromas at bay, glues and gums away from my body, and a lot less plastic waste in landfill, so when my current unit finally runs out (and the pusher is just beginning to become visible as you can see in the photo) then I will replace it with another one of these without a second thought.[Edit Jan 2023, a year after my initial review] OK, so 10.5–11 years after I started using this the yellow pusher is emerging from top (see second photo) and starting to scrape. So I have indeed bought a new one to replace it, and the decade-long cycle begins again!

I never thought I'd ever bother reviewing a deodorant, but this product is truly exceptional. I've suffered from excessive sweating since my teens (many years!), to the extent that I never felt comfortable just wearing a t-shirt. No matter what the weather, I always had to have an extra layer on to hide my sweat marks. I went to the drs multiple times, and I was given a number of treatments...none of which worked, and many which brought me out in a rash or made my armpits itch like hell.I came across PitRok by chance, just through browsing Amazon. I've never seen it in shops, and I have no idea why! It works like an absolute charm. You have to apply it to wet underarms (I apply mine straight after a shower), and I slap quite a bit on. And I tell you what, not only do I not have any sweat marks, but there's no smell whatsoever. And I really put it to the test. The first week I got it, I went to Rhodes, where it was 45 degrees celsius all day, and 28 degrees at night. Compared to how much I sweated in the UK in ~10 degrees, there were barely any sweat marks, and there was practically no smell. I felt so comfortable, I wore a t-shirt all week without feeling like I had to wear another layer to hide sweat marks.I've been using it for over two months now, and the stick has hardly gone down. It will last for ages! I reckon I'll get a good 6 months (if not more) out of it before I have to replace it.So although it seems like an expensive deodorant, not only will it last for a long time, it actually works. This is all I'm using from now on.*** EDIT *** (3rd July 2016)After 11 months, I'm still using the SAME deodorant stick. It hasn't lost its strength and it's still going strong. So value for money is absolutely brilliant!

This stuff is amazing! I was not expecting it to work so well but it actually works better than my usual Sure Max strength at improving the smell. I’ve used other natural deodorant and by the end of the day they’ve normally faded. But not this, at the end of the day nothing, even when worn overnight, even with night sweats, no detected smell at all! I’ve yet to test it in warmer weathers but I’m very excited to do so as is very impressive so far.No irritation or anything. I’m not sure if I’m using too much but no marks or clothing transfer.Would definitely recommend and will continue to use.

PitRok push up deodorant is amazing. You simply wet your underarm or apply after showering when your underarm is still wet and there you go - odourless all day even if you do heavy manual work. It works better than any other deodorant I have ever used and also it has no annoying scent and no stickyness. It is basically a contoured smooth crystal of which a small amount dissolves on contact with a wet underarm. If more people knew about this product then the would use nothing else. Another thing is that it lasts for absolutely ages. I bought mine months ago and it is only half used. This product really is a revolution and I have nothing to do with the company that makes the product I assure you. The only issue I have with the product is the way it is advertised:Natural bacteriostatic action.PitRok Push-up Crystal Deodorant.Works by suppressing bacterial growth - the cause of body odour. PitRok provides remarkable deodorant protection in a natural way.Does not block pores.No aluminium chlorohydrate or aluminium zirconium.Odourless.Bacteriostatic action.What is should really say is what is does contain which is a solid lump of ammonium alum. This is in fact a salt containing a form of aluminium. No I don't believe that there have been any studies showing any issue with using this form of aluminium salt as a topical deodorant(otherwise I wouldn't use it) but trying to imply that it is some kind of natural crystal is a bit misleaing in my view. But in summary a brilliant and revolutionary product that once tried you will never use anything else. Also the fact that it lasts so long makes it cheap too!
