    I finally found one I really like- Degree "MotionSense" and the "ultra-clear" version really doesn't leave white or yellow stains on my black/white clothing (or at least not nearly as much as others I've tried). For me personally, I Secret and Dove didn't work well, and Mitchum gave me an allergic reaction.

    Coconut oil mixed with baking soda is incredibly effective BUT it did make my skin dry and brownish, which you then had to clean with vinegar. My husband thinks it's worth it but prefer the convenience of Degree.

    Degree makes a spray with 'motion sense' that lasts a long time, I spray it once in the morning and find it lasts all day (even through my 6 hour dance sessions).

    I use an antiperspirant. I also use witch hazel and coconut oil to reduce bacterial odor.

    I also bring an extra shirt since I know I'll sweat through the first.

    Mitchum. Secret was really rough on my skin.

    I am okay with the regular secret, but the clinical irritates my skin. I use regular secret most of the time, but rotate Mitchum in sometimes as well. Sometimes the regular secret isn't strong enough.

    I got some degree to try.

    I'm looking for a deodorant that lasts the ENTIRE workout. Preferably women's, but if it's unscented I guess men's could work.

    Dove's 48 hour last me my entire workout, it does not however last 48 hours, I will shower it off well before testing the "48 hour" claim.

    +1 Mitchum gel. It doesn't trash my clothes, either.

    If you are getting white marks on your clothes, rub them with pantyhose. I really don't understand why this works, but it takes the white marks right off. I keep a ruined (with runs) pair of pantyhose in the bathroom for this express purpose. (It also works pretty well if I get sunscreen on my clothes.)

    For deodorant, I can only use Dove GoFresh (or whatever they are calling it now; the packaging was different last time I bought it at Target). Everything else gives me rash. Secret Clinical is the worst for rashes (for me) and natural deodorants with baking soda and essential oils are nearly as bad (plus they don't work well). But I have really sensitive underarm skin.

    I use Kiss My Face Active Life Sport Deodorant. It is sold at Whole Foods or online via Amazon for the best price.
    It is Aluminum Free, which means it is not toxic. Also, NO MORE WHITE MARKS!
    I find that it lasts all day. :)

    Is it an antiperspirant AND deodorant? Or just a deodorant?

    Your "no more white marks" claim is intriguing. I've tried all of the ones that say that, and none have yet to live up to the claim. I need LBD-friendly deodorant, but I also need antiperspirant.

    I looked it up again on Amazon. I believe it is just a deodorant. But, it works trust me. I work out six days a week doing cardio and I sweat. But I don't smell. LOL

    No more white marks because - it is CLEAR! :)

    I love this stuff. Check it out and see what they say about it on Amazon.

    Yup. I don't care that it is supposedly for men, it is unscented, dries quickly so no issues with clothes, no sweat and no BO.

    I don't even need to reapply it the next day if I don't shower. It says it works for 48 hours and it actually does!
