cranberry Posted April 4, 2005 Share Posted April 4, 2005 I have tried almost all the deoderants and I always have the same problem. They seem to work the first day or so, and then it's like they almost stop working after that?! I am currently using a gel deoderant and it works pretty good, but it stains my white t-shirts . Does anyone know any good brands? Link to comment
Mysterious Gurl Posted April 4, 2005 Share Posted April 4, 2005 I use dove and impulse. They seem really good. Better than any other brands I have tried. Miya Link to comment
kskm Posted April 4, 2005 Share Posted April 4, 2005 I personally had the same issues. It's almost as if your body get immune to it. I would stick with roll on or gel because it stays on longer and seeps into your pours more easily then a stick. I recommend dove roll on or secret gel. Link to comment
DragonGirl724 Posted April 4, 2005 Share Posted April 4, 2005 Dove is the best. -DG724 Link to comment

Desired1 Posted April 4, 2005 Share Posted April 4, 2005 has anyone tried Mitchum for women??? Link to comment
Mysterious Gurl Posted April 4, 2005 Share Posted April 4, 2005 Mitchum? Never heard of it. What is it or what does it do? Miya Link to comment
SouthernSon Posted April 4, 2005 Share Posted April 4, 2005 I realize this is mainly a female discussion, but I did want to caution on using Mitchum. It's designed so that you only need to apply it like once every 2-3 days. The way it accomplishes this is by practically shrinking up your skin pores so tightly that it can last that long. I of course have never used it, but from a health standpoint, I'd caution on using it at all. Believe it or not, sweating in that area is a healthy activity for your body. If you suddenly stopped sweating there, you should be worried. I personally wouldn't use something that can clog your pores for several days. Link to comment

If you suddenly stopped sweating there, you should be worried. I personally wouldn't use something that can clog your pores for several days. Your armpits are not the only place you sweat from - you have pores all over your body and sweat does evaporate from all over, and I have not heard of any cases of "Mitchum-induced fatalities". Your armpits are just one of the stinkier and sweatier places it evaporates from. I have used it, and still need to apply it the next day after I have showered and everything. It works well, but not that well to stop your body from being able to breathe! Most antiperspirants work in this manner - by stopping sweating. Deodorants on the other hand only mask odour but allow you to keep sweating. Link to comment
cranberry Posted April 4, 2005 Author Share Posted April 4, 2005 Which is the best from Dove- the stick/gel/roll-on? I tried the stick a while back, and it stopped working for me after a short time. I just bought the Mitchum for Women last week. It worked at first, but then it's like it only 1/2 works. I wore a white t-shirt with it and that was a success though. Link to comment
kskm Posted April 5, 2005 Share Posted April 5, 2005 The dove roll on is the best because it really seeps into your pours. And I know that this is going to sound gross but you have to make sure that you are really, and I mean really washing really really well and get all of the deoterant from the previous day before you re-apply. Also deoterant should only be applied directly after you shower. It's best done when you are still kinda wet. That's what the doctors say at least, and I have a routine that consists of that- and I dont stink-lol Link to comment
Mysterious Gurl Posted April 5, 2005 Share Posted April 5, 2005 I think the roll on or the spray. I sometimes find roll on make me feel sticky but the spray feels more refreshing. It might just be me. Miya Link to comment
AzureSkyes69 Posted May 5, 2005 Share Posted May 5, 2005 I like arrid xx it really works for me(the gel) and I feel fresh with it. Link to comment
Mysterious Gurl Posted May 5, 2005 Share Posted May 5, 2005 I know this is a little off topic ... but does anyone else like the smell of mens deoderant? or their aftershave?? I love the smell of lynx. I use my brothers and spray in my top or jackets. I love it when a guy is stood next to you and you get a whiff of their deoderant. I'm weird like that Miya Link to comment
kskm Posted May 5, 2005 Share Posted May 5, 2005 I'm not so sure about thier deoterant, but I love men smelling good- cologne. I think that Polo Sport is great, Armani and I can't remember the name of my favorite- it comes in a greenish blue bottle in the shape of a man's neck torso and down to thighs Link to comment
