Deodorants

[angus]

Old Spice "Fresh" deodorant in the winter and same fragrance anti perspirant in Summer. You know us swarthy Mediterranean types!!

Used to love Aqua Velva ice blue deodorant and antiperspirant, but like everything else I have grown accustomed to - it no longer exists......

My Secret

Am I the only one bold enough to admit that I use Secret Platinum with Olay??? LMAO I have been using Secret for YEARS. It is an unbelievable anti-perpirant and the scents are very light. Most allergic reactions are to the aluminum or the fragrance. Trial and error will tell you which. Oh, BTW, PH balanced for a woman?? Who wants to buy a bridge??

Secret

I'm still using right guard. I use the powder dry spray flavor. I'm unfortunattly one of those people who need something strong. I sweat alot because of my job, especially in the summer. I've tryed sticks, other sprays and RG seems to work the best.

No staining from RG for me, however i,ve heard from other people who couldnt use RG because they said it burned when they put it on.

I've tryed secret too. It worked very well for me.

It's the pits!

The mister kind of had the same allergic reaction to the Old Spice High Endurance clear roll-on. He tried Mitchum, but thought it didn't last as long. We went back to the original formula (which, I assume, has less alcohol?) and saved his armpits!

Most guys have a distinct disadvantage when using anti-perspirants and deoderants....hair! Therefore, using a dry roll-on (like Mitchum) tends to pull out those pit hairs, not providing full coverage, and making deoderizing a real PITA! Women, on the other hand, shave; making the use of aerosol deoderants excruciating! OY! I remember those Right Guard spray days in junior high gym. There were lots of screaming adolescent gals in our locker room! The fumes were great though. ;-)

I think that is a common problem. Both my partner and myself had that problem no matter what brand of antiperspirant we used, that is until we got out ASKO washer. The only thing that solved that problem was to wash t-shirts at the 205 degree temp everytime. I think the hot temp prevented a "build up" of the stuff and kept them clean. Maybe it is just a body chemistry thing for some people, because as I have read here not everybody has that problem. So the solution for me was the 205 degree boil wash in the ASKO, but now with the Bosch having a lower high temp, I have to buy t-shirts more often. If only the ASKO could have been more reliable.

Another alternative....

If you are really allergic to deoderants/antiperspirants and suffer from excessive sweating (hyperhydrosis, I think), there are Botox treatments that may help. Botox isn't just for eyebrows and lips anymore!

abcomatic here, I use old spice high endurance pure sport. I think anti-persperants are dangerous to use. There has been research done on the matter and the aluminium used in it can cause cancer in labratory rats. You are not a rat but I would think twice about using it. The old spice isnt too fragrant but does a nice job. Shower everyday and you are good to go. Good luck. abcomatic
