Hi. I've noticed in the last week that my daughter is starting to smell sweaty at the end of the day. Aside from a daily wash/shower can she use a deodorant? If so which one? She seems so young to use one. Any advice will be great.

She can use deodorant. yes :)

There's kids ones available. I'd recommend a roll on, as when they're young they spray spray spray (a bit like washing up liquid! Grin)

What about this one for example? www.boots.com/en/Keep-It-Kind-Fresh-Kidz-Deodorant-Roll-on-50ml_1305069/

No harm in getting her into a daily routing of shower and deodorant before she really needs to :) I did this with DS when he was 10 before any real sign of puberty. Good habit to get them into before the 'smelly years'

I will definitely get a roll on. I can imagine the spray deodorant being used up almost immediately!
