I want to know what kind of deodorant you use!

Ive been using Dove ClearTone deodorant because of darker skin but it doesn't exactly smell good. :huh:

Any natural ones you've liked?

*men and women question! Tell meee :)

    I just use Sure. It's cheap and unscented. Can't stand having a perfumy smell waft up all day.

    Ideally I use Secret's um.. gel? invisible? liquid? deodorant. new scent everytime. I find that it lasts me the day, it doesn't give me the major problems white stick deodorant does, and it kind of sinks into your skin rather than stay on the surface and gets on all your shirts in the morning like lady speed stick's gel deodorant does.

    I have to rotate my deoderant every month or I swear it just stops working for me. I think overall my favourite is Degree solid.

    Ive been trying to use natural and organic ones since they do not contain aluminum. All the mainstream ones contain aluminum. Aluminum gets processed through the liver (harmful and toxic) and also blocks your sweat glands which means you can't eliminate the toxins.

    " Aluminum – Used to block sweat glands, aluminum-based compounds are the active ingredients in antiperspirants. Many studies have pointed at these aluminum compounds as being responsible for causing changes in estrogen receptors in breast cells – a risk for developing breast cancer. This claim may or not be accurate. However, the simple act of preventing perspiration hinders the body’s natural attempt at eliminating toxins via the skin’s pores."

    I have to switch it up frequently too or it doesn't seem to work as well. I am currently on Degree Expert Protection with 24 hour motion sense. That's a mouthful! :P

    Dove Go Fresh in "Revive", which is a pomegranate and lemon verbana scent (whatever the hell that means).

    Basically, whatever works best and smells good. I prefer the sweet, fruity-ish scents over the floral-chemical scents, because I like to smell like I'm 29, not 92.

    Dove has one, can't remember what's it's called, soft solid maybe. It blends into my skin beautifully, and the scent is just called Fresh. It is really just a clean scent. Not perfumy or flowery.

    I like it a lot

    Secret is the best seller out there, but it's never worked for me

    Secret - powder fresh. I have noticed that it doesn't seem to be working as well as it is supposed to. Maybe it has to do with me eating lots of meat, cheese and veggies.

    I use Old Spice fresh because it is not an anti-perspirant, so it doesn't contain aluminum, and it doesn't stain my clothes. The natural ones I have tried seem useless.

    I use baking soda. No, really, it's the best deodorant AND anti-perspirant I've ever had. I had to stop using regular deodorants because I'm allergic to something in them, and those all-natural ones don't work worth ****.

    Secret unscented...If I'm smelly then something is wrong! I figure all those perfumes just cause skin problems. I use the bar one that's unscented and white. I don't like the gel stuff. It never worked well for me and is sticky. I've been on camping trips where it was broiling hot and the stuff hasn't failed me yet.

    DOVE. The stuff is good. It doesn't irritate me like some other ones. I don't feel like I'm sacrificing anything. I'm dry and I smell fresh, not perfume-y. DO IT. DO IT.

    Currently Degree's UltraClear. I used to use Dove ALL the time...but it doesn't seem to be able to handle me anymore. D:

    idk if this question is geared towards men too or not but I use old spice stick typically. Sometimes a sports deodrant. I used to use Axe all the time long time ago but I can't stand them anymore along with other body spray

    this, since I was first in need of it. My mom had already switched, so she was ready for when we needed it. Absolutely can miss a day if it happens.

    Secret Powder Fresh. Bout the only one that works for me and doesn't wear off too soon and expose the stink! :o)

    I've been using Degree Active Clean which I really like, but I have to try this Mitchum's. If it can last for two days like so many people I've seen say who've tried it, it must be pretty awesome!
  • I use the salt rock deodorant or Natures Gate natural deodorant with Clary Sage. Also, I know it sounds strange but coconut oil is a great deodorant. But I prefer that in the winter.

    I use 'Trust'. It can last around 7 days but I apply it Mondays and Fridays to have a routine. It's a deodorant meaning you'll still sweat through it, but I've never had anyone complain about BO. You can do sports, shower etc. I love it. No more panicking because I'm camping and forget to have deodorant with me, no more waiting for something to dry and worrying about marks.

    I love Secret Oh la la Lavender or something like that..... I like the gel and the solid but they do have it in a 48 Hour formula. Even sweating in this hot, humid Alabama heat, I really only have to use it once every other day (even after taking a shower)



    ** Completely Clean is awesome as well**

    Am I the only one that doesn't use one?

    I wash, that is it. I'm very active but I transpire across the body, less in the pits than most and don't stink - that is what my wife and prior girlfriends have told me as it is something I was curious about. The few times I've tried these products I get rashes.
