The product of the year so far goes to... Aromaco from Lush. *small applause*
I've always wanted to try out Lush's solid deodorants but was too reluctant to give it a go. However, in January, I was given a sample of Aromaco, which I blogged about here. I can't believe I still haven't finished the sample! I'm down to the last remaining morsel of it, which means that tiny block lasted around 2 months! Now, I think that's very good.
Here's how it actually looks like when bought, compared to its sample - not much difference of course -.-
On to the results...
Having heard the numerous news on the harmful effects of deodorants, I wanted to find an alternative that was safe to use, that was easy to apply, and that actually worked!
Aromaco ticked all those boxes and more. Lush has many good reviews on this, and I think this is their best seller for solid deodorants.
This is very easy to apply. Okay, so maybe not as easy as your normal roll-on or spray. You have to rub it on application, but it glides on so well and I didn't have a problem with it.
The scent could be better. I'd describe it as slightly herbal in a way. It does have a weird odour, but the good thing is you only notice this on application, so it is not at all overpowering in any way.
It's not oily, so there's no need to worry about greasiness.
It lasts the entire day and even longer! I'm so surprised by how long it lasts. It performs just as well, if not better, than deodorants in the market.
I have yet to test if it leaves any white marks - it would be a major bonus if it didn't leave any!

"Harmful effects of deodorant".. Really?? I had no clue. What are they?
P.S. Every time I pass by Lush in our mall I think of your blog haha!
@ Misha: I should have put 'the so-called' harmful effects (rather)! There have been mixed findings on this. Articles in the past have linked deodorants to breast cancer, but scientists say there isn't enough evidence just yet on this. More can be found at : http://www.cancer.gov/cancertopics/factsheet/Risk/AP-Deo
At the moment I think it's a 'scare', as there is no concrete research.
aww ^.^ haha =D !
i start to wonder if you're a shareholder of Lush :p
Ohhh you know, i am fan of lush, but my problem is i buy lots of product but I don't use it :$
I am lazy :D
@ Hijabs and Co: This is definitely a problem for me too! Haha =/... I have so many products I have yet to use, so right now I've simply stopped buying things I know I can't/won't be using (for a while). And that's why, as tempted as I am to get the latest Easter range, I won't because I want to use everything I have first!
@ Bitten: hehee ...! If only, I'd love to be one ! really, I would... -.-
