Vinegar as deodorant? Wouldn't it has this soury smell?
Hi,
I use vinegar to wash my hair all the time. If my hair is not very "dirty" I squirt on some undiluted vinegar and then rinse it off. My hair is rather thick and straight relative to Caucasion hair. Undiluted vinegar may not work for every hair type. If it seems a bit oily, I use shampoo and then use the vinegar as a conditioner. I have been told also to use the diluted vinegar as a vaginal wash. The idea there was to improve the pH of the vagina tissue to avoid bacterial infection which produce odors as a side effect of other damage. When I travel, I just carry a little bottle of vinegar and use it in place of all soap. Much more gentle and pleasant. I am amazed, it does not seem to leave an odor. I use ordinary cheap local rice vinegar. Organic goods are very expensive and hard to get where I live just outside of Tokyo

Yes indeed! It does work really well. Only I use organic apple cider vinegar, half and half with water. I did have one of those crystal things for a while and got rid of it long ago. Had a suspicion it was too good to be true.
Also, there is a former oncology nurse who sells a couple of very simple “cosmetic” products via the internet, one of which is a multipurpose vinegar and lavender spray. Works wonders. She mainly sells to other nurses who care for stoma, I think it is. I won’t add the website here but if anyone wants it, I can send it privately. Teresa (Northern VA)

A friend just mentioned to me that she uses plain ol' white cider vinegar as a deoderant--she says it works great. Haven't yet tried it myself, but am certainly planning to. She just splashes it on from her palm. Anyone else tried this?
These are NOT aluminium free.
They used to be advertised as aluminium free.
I was discussing this in our group and one of our group who has extraordinary powers said this statement is not correct.
(She said that the hairs on her arms stand up when ever she hears a false statement! )
So I wrote to the suppliers in UK and asked for the official analysis of the product.
They had not had the product analysed having relied on their far eastern manufacturers - so they sent a request to the laboratory of either Bristol or Bath university and the report came back that it has aluminium in as a major constituent.
However, I use this product and find that it is effective and one only need to use it every two or three days.
Under-arm perspiration should be almost odour free - although pheromones are exerted with them.
Unwelcomed odour is caused by bacteria which is often removed by washing. The way this type of product acts is that it creates an acid environment where the bacteria that cause the odour cannot survive - hence no odour.
Unless of course one's perspiration is odorous - that is to say the perspiration is odorous no matter how much the area is washed and cleaned. This is then a symptom and needs to be taken into consideration.
