What deodorant do you use?
So what deodorant do you use on a regular basis?
I am a Right Guard Sport Gel man myself. I use unscented or lightly scented deodorant.

I used to be all about the stick kind, mostly secret platinum coz they have the best scents. But then I bought cheap spray on stuff for guard season, and I've discovered that I prefer Suave "24 hour protection".

I never use anti-perperants. I'm not a big sweater. Right now I use Tom's honeysuckle and something. It's one of those Tom's natual products. I don't think it works as well as the last one I had, but when I looked for that I didn't see it. I think they discontinued making the one I used to use. I may try something different next time. But always stick or roll on, never spray. And always the clear-ish ones, never white ones.

As unscented and cheap as I can find. Usually a generic brand solid, because gel makes me feel like I've got an octopus in a headlock. There are few smells I like less than scented men's deoderant; Old Spice, Axe, whatever, I can't stand them. They're like woodstain mixed with rubbing alcohol. My ultimate goal is to have absolutely no appreciable scent.

I'm still looking for a gel I like that doesn't powder white. Degree does and Secret does. There was one that starts with an M and I can't remember what it was called. That was nice shit.

Don't use any. More exactly - can't use any. They all give me a rash. And in the armpit, that really, really sucks.

The one that I like by Adidas doesn't have any aluminum in it, and it works just as well. Better actually, because I like that it feels better and is easier to wash off than the regular stuff.Crazy Elf wrote:I use anything without aluminum in it. This typically ends up as tea tree oil or something like that. Then again, Australian brands will be incomprehensible to you guys.

Aluminum certainly isn't something you want to put on your breakfast cereal, but, without yet researching it, I doubt there's any risk in this context. I suspect it's like teflon; yes, there is a mild danger if used under conditions that are difficult to reproduce outside of a lab, but, for practical purposes there is no risk. Not even reduced risk: no risk. But I'm curious enough now to look for some studies. Initial data from my medicine cabinet shows that different aluminum salts are used in different types of deoderants, so things might not be cut and dry.Crazy Elf wrote:I use anything without aluminum in it.

It affects certain people in strange ways. When I was between the ages of 11-15, I couldn't use anything with aluminum in it, because I wound up extremely ill. Seeing as the only thing that had changed about anything I ate, wore, etc was the inclusion of a new deodorant that had aluminum, we guessed that the problem was with said product. Stopped using them, stopped being sick. After a while, it stopped making me ill, so I assume it was just an odd by-product of being a young teen.AtemHutlrt wrote:Aluminum certainly isn't something you want to put on your breakfast cereal, but, without yet researching it, I doubt there's any risk in this context.

Speed Stick regular deodorant. There's no point in using anti-perspirant for me - I'll sweat or I won't according to strange rules what man may not know. Hell, most of the anti-perspirants I've used seem to make me sweat more, and they're definately more irritating to my skin. I just accept the fact of sweat, wear a light microfiber overshirt at all times (thank you plastic shirts of power!), and generally attempt to avoid heat + exertion as I'm quite susceptable to dehydration. I also luck out since most females I've known claim my sweat actually smells kinda nice. I think it smells like I need a shower, but I'm not going to argue.
Also, wait, aluminum? Is this common in deodorants / anti-perspirants?

Well I guess the day I'm fat enough to have breasts will be the day I switch deodorants. That day will never happen.Crazy Elf wrote:It doesn't look all that good for women, so I'd prefer to keep away from it.
