Does anyone know of a deodorant that works really well and doesn't leave any stains on your clothes? Mine is about to run out and I need to buy a new one soon! So, what is your favorite deodorant?
 
I'm a big fan of the Dove Ultimate Sensitive Care, the fragrance free kind. I've got crazy sensitive skin, and this stuff works great!
 
Thanks for the reply! I'm currently using the dove cucumber and green tea and it's okay.. nothing great-- it kind of seems to get funky by the end of the day ::) ... does that one keep you smelling like absolutely nothing all day? I've never had success with an unscented deodorant which stinks, because I am also very sensitive.
 
I have good luck with it. I also use the Clinical Strength unscented, and it does an excellent job, IMO.
 
Cool! Thank you-- I'm going to give those a shot!
 
Sure invisible solid - regular scent. love it.
 
I use Dove Clinical Strength as well and really like it.
 
Secret Flawless Finish
 
I use Axe (the clear, gel kind) and I love it!
it goes on great and doesnt leave white marks (I'm pretty sure the Axe line was designed for guys though- I've decided to try it after my FI raved about it every morning =)
 
Mitchum, the men's unscented clear gel version. Very good for working in hot environments and holds up to road trips in steaming hot cars in the desert.
 
Another plug for men's deodorant. I'm a high heel wearing, dress frolicking, girly girl that wears old spice!!
 
This is hilarious! I've never met women who wear men's deodorant !!!
 
I use Speed Stick Sport Talc for men. Men's deodorants are less expensive, larger and as a whole work better from what I have found. Plus they don't have those icky baby powder or fresh morning scents :sick:
 
I use regular old Secret solid deodorant.

The trick to save your clothing is this: Make sure your deodorant is completely dry before you put on your clothes. Part of the staining is the deodorant itself.

If you have a problem with sweating through deodorant do this: Pat some baby powder on your underarms over the deodorant. You'll stay dry all day.

To remove deodorant stains from clothes: wet the stain and then scrub in Dawn liquid dish soap*. Let soak for ten minutes. Rinse, and then throw in the wash.(*obviously, test a section of your clothes before you try this.)

Yep...let the deodorant dry first. After I put mine on, I wear a tank top while putting on makeup & style hair and then get dressed.

My friend swears by baking soda, but I tried it and it didn't work.

Thank you so much for the tips! This is exactly what I was looking for. I think that I put my clothes on too quickly--- I'm a rusher. I never even thought about letting it dry. :bigsmile: With all of these tips, my underarms are going to be perfect :cheeky: :lol:

I use their women's formula and it works great for me.
 
I'm telling you, the dry deodorant covered with baby powder is the key! I like St. Ives feminine powder, it smells pretty.

I am definitely going to have to go get some of this and give it a try later this week :bigsmile: I feel silly, but I seriously am very excited to try this out. Deodorant problems are so frustrating!
 
mitchum unscented rollon.

I'm going to try this. Does the St. Ives have talc in it?

Oh, and I use Dry Idea Unscented.
 
I'm all about Dove.


What deodorant's do your hubbies/bf's use? My husband always buys the spray ones and they just don't last as long....I'm always telling him he's stinky (he works in a heavy Chef's coat all day).

It's made with corn starch.
And I should have written Summer's Eve, not St. Ives--sorry!

I use Dove and have noticed the funkiness too! I just haven't been motivated to find a different brand. Between this and the Clarisonic, I just keep piggybacking on your problem threads :)


Edited for spelling.
 
I have been using Secret Flawless for a while now. All these ladies that use mens I might have to give it a try.

I have a question though. I put my deodorant on after I get dressed because it seems than when I put it on first I get the marks all over the sides of my shirt. For those that put it on first and then let it dry then use the powder, how do you keep the deodorant and powder off the bottom half of the shirt?

Another problem that I have is that I use it in excess. I cant stop. DH counted once and I use 14 swipes per pit. I know this is too much, but it doesnt feel like a good coating if I use less.
 
I use Ban deodorant and I really like it.

I used to use Secret and it stopped working as well. With the Ban it also keeps me from sweating. I tried using a man's deodorant and liked it at first, but then it badly stained a dress I was wearing, it wasn't the deodorant itself, but something in it combined with my body's chemistry. It was weird it turned a red dress black :eek:

I think that it is hilarious that we tend to have the same problems with this kind of stuff-- it makes me feel like i'm not crazy and it's not just me :bigsmile:

Wow, sparkles! That is a crazy story-- I can't even imagine deodorant being able to turn red black! :shock: What brand was it?

Thanks. I did buy some but ended up with a $1.99 lavendar scented one to test out. There was Johnson's and Burt's Bees and I'd like to get the BBs but it was sealed so I couldn't see what it smells like...

Is the Summer's Eve with baby stuff or womens' stuff? I ran into the problem that my kids and DH were with me and my kids were overly entertained about me buying baby stuff so I told them there is a baby in my oven and that led to me running out of there b/c they were giggling so loud and patting my tummy. lol (Actually, I ran away from them & DH and used the self checkout! Later had to track them down in the store....hahaha)
