I saw a product advertised on TV over the weekend that is supposed to stop you sweating, it's some sort of natural crystal stuff but I can't remember the name of it. I think it may begin with B� anyone got any ideas what it's called?

Can I just point out it doesn't stop you sweating, it just stops your sweat from smelling.

Loads of differnet crystal doedorants around.One at : http://www.crystaldeodorant.com/questions.html or: http://www.tlcinabottle.co.uk/deodorant_stone.html and for the 'treehuggers': http://www.grailstones.co.uk/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=59 Also available in the natrural food shops and the like in their health departments.

They don't stop the perspiration, but stop the bacteria from smelling - the point is they don't have an aluminium base that clogs pores and can be harmful to the body, and of course no propellants to choke the ozone layer etc etc

i used to use those - and they do work to a certain extent but got fed up with sweating and still getting a little pit pongy SO i though sod the environment and changed back to me "spray more get more" lynx.... and you know what - i do to!

It looks good if you want to use it on your feet and that I suppose, might get it just for that. Driclor and Triple Dry are good for stopping you sweating Hannahjo, but they do have aluminium in. they come in roll-on form so better for the environment.

If you're looking for something to stop you sweating use Driclor, it really works
