SO could not find my brand and bought the anti stuff. All good till I showered in the evening in cleaning my armpits with soap, it felt like my pits had a wax coating. Had to scrub. Is this stuff always this nasty?

First time using anti-perspirant?  In Middle School you're going to start noticing some changes in your body...

pretty much. i can’t use deodorant only, it irritates the hell out of my skin for some reason, but antiperspirant doesn’t. it’s like trying to scrub wax off.

It does put a film on you.

For anyone looking for a deodorant only that kicks ass—Lume > Native.  I tested Lume in 100 degree heat and humidity of Memphis TN and didn’t stink.

I have been using deodorant only for years.   Antiperspirant has the opposite effect on me.  It causes me to sweat profusely.

Yep, it’s why I prefer a deodorant vs. an antiperspirant when I have to wear something to keep from stinking while out.  I’m mostly at home though, so I usually just shower if I start stinking.  I hate wearing deodorant or antiperspirant.

The new 48hr shit is NASTY. I had to change brands because after 20 years, they went to this 48hr shit and it’s oily, it ruins shirts, it’s a mega fail.

In before the Old Spice guys that walk around smelling like goat nuts and paprika.

But seriously, yes it leaves a film. It will build up in shirts if you do end up sweating too. Deodorizers make me itchy and sweaty or I would use them instead.

Deodorant is just perfume for your pits.

Congrats on no longer stinking.

Wife read a theory that alzheimers is being caused by a buildup of aluminum in the brain due to decades of deodorant use since it contains aluminum oxide I believe?

Switched us to one that does not contain aluminum but it does nothing to control perspiration and only last about 12 hours for me.

If you get a deodorant with something to kill the bacteria, then you don’t stink.  I like something with silver in it.  Degree used to make a 48 hour deodorant with silver, and that stuff worked in triple digit south Texas heat.

Me too.  Took me years to figure out it was the Antiperspirant that was the problem.  Also no more crusty stains on my T-shirts.

The aluminum salts are the antiperspirants.  Deodorant usually doesn’t have aluminum in it.

Wrong.  Deodorant has additives to kill bacteria.  Bacteria is where the smell comes from.

Don’t use that stuff.

Full of aluminum..

Aluminum builds up in brain.

People who have Alzheimer’s have a lot of a aluminum in their brain..


They claim aluminum doesn’t have anything to do with Alzheimer’s.

Laugh all you want about her commercials but the results speak for themselves.  No aluminum and no toxic chemicals either.  Shit just works.  I was a former naysayer.

I had a boss that ruined dress shirts with pit stains. Multiple people always told him to switch to deodorant, but he never listened.

I've never seen pit stains like his.

I went looking online, and Degree, Dove, and Nivea have all discontinued their silver containing products.  I’m SOL when I have to reup.  Looks like there might be some products that they make for non US markets available on Amazon, but I can’t recommend anything I don’t know works.

If you use an anti use Sure unscented. No rash, no odor, no noticeable waxy feel.

I use the deodorant-only from Old Spice. You have to be careful because they have the same scents in both anti-perspirant and deodorant as they do in deodorant only.  Why can't they put all of the anti-perspirant & deodorant in the red container, and all of the deodorant only int he white, or something like that?
The white containers have some pretty good scents (the red containers smell bad, imo), and they seem to work very well for 12-18 hours.

I worry about aluminum build-up in my brain. My grandmother and my dad both had dementia.  I figure what can it hurt to not put some unknown thing in my body.

I used to use the Gillette clear gel antiperspirant. It went on without much issue and if you gave it a couple minutes to dry out before you put on a shirt it didn’t stay sticky.

However I ended up switching to Old Spice deodorant only due to the aluminum worries, that and it would eventually ruin the pits in my undershirts.

@bespride

It’s $15 direct from Lume.
The tube is the best value because it only takes a pea sized amount.
