Good Idea - The Body Shop Deo-Dry Deodorants...

I'm feeling rather obsessed with TBS at the moment - I cant walk past without popping in to pick up a bargain from the sale (they have Body Butters and intensive hair conditioners for £5 at the moment - I'm stocking up!). Also, as you know there was a blogger event recently for the new makeup collection, and I have been using certain items from that collection a lot - full review and swatches soon!

But one of the things I'm impressed with right now, is their new deodorant line - namely the roll on versions (It's also available in stick form)

Reasons I love - 
  • They are refillable - eco friendly alert!
  • They are free of aluminium salts and other nasties
  • They contain essential oils and volcanic minerals
  • They are decently priced...£4 for the roll on and £3 for the refills. 
In terms of efficacy, I'd say they are comparable to most standard roll ons - if you need a stronger one like Mitchum or something, then you may not find these efficient enough!

I have two scents - there are three in all - I picked up "Fresh & Floral" a while back, and I was given "Chilled & Breezy" at the recent event. 

"Fresh & Floral" is a floral scent, but not in an old fashioned way - there is a citrussy note which keeps it fresh, and I really like it.

"Chilled & Breezy" is a more traditional cotton fresh style scent - and could possibly be a unisex scent. 

Have you tried these yet?

I bought the blue one (Chilled and Breezy) a couple of weeks ago. Honestly, I'm disappointed. Yep, I like the fact that it's more natural, the scent is quite ok too, but the bulky tube and "24 HR protection" & "Dry effect" claims are a total FAIL. :(

Used it before this insane heat came to our country and later in these hot days (above 30C), also in the evenings when it was pretty cool - and it still is totally useless. In 3 hours after application I don't feel even its scent! It's like I haven't even put the deodorant at all. Weird. :/

PS And I don't even sweat much.
