DS (13) hasn't had a problem with odour previously. He has been using sure antibacterial and it has worked well. Until last week or so he has started to smell really strongly of BO. Is there a more effective deodorant ?

get him to start using bar soap in the shower (if he likes scents marketed towards men try this one) and then try the triple dry roll on deodorant from boots. we are navigating the same waters with ds x

I agree soap is better than shower gel, but I wondered if he’s not showering properly. I’d advise him to turn the water off while he applies lather, and then rinse of.
