All body deodorant

[Islandofwight]

Just seen that advert again for Sure All Body Deodorant. Am I the only one who gets a bit annoyed by it?

Has it now become a thing that we need to deodorise our entire bodies? My body doesn’t stink, and whilst I use deodorant under my arms because otherwise it might, I resent the idea that we have to chemically enhance ourselves to fit in socially.

Hopefully people will realise that this is an unnecessary scam and it will go away.

Its a load of nonsense. If you smell that bad, take a shower. Its designed to make people buy more rubbish.

Never seen this. Wouldn't buy it.
Where are you supposed to put it apart from armpits? 😬

Under boobs, balls, arse.

Oh, and feet.

Yep. My boobs don’t need deodorant. It’s ludicrous. Yet more material for companies
to use to make women hate their bodies.

My boobs do 😂. But the one with the bloke spraying his balls, just no.

I mean, what's to stop you using your regular stuff if you feel you need it - why a special product?

Most - arguably all - women don't have balls...

There was a thread about this recently. Most people agree, it's designed to make us all self conscious about body parts so we apply more chemicals while sweating so they make more money. Plus it's a crass disgusting ad.

Going against the grain, I wouldn’t purchase myself but do know a friend who always moans about her larger breasts in summer who said she wishes they did deodorant for her boobs.

Maybe it’s not something you’d want but others might be happy

Ah I didn’t know about the other thread.

But I agree about the advert. I hate the product but the actual advert is horrible. I thought the On The Beach advert last year with the fat family and the ‘booking brilliant’ hilarious wordplay was my least favourite advert. But these guys have surpassed it. Like adverts created by Peter Kay’s weakest gag-writer.

I put talc / baby powder under mine to help the sweat, mine are big and heavy so always touching the skin below. They don't smell though, they shouldn't smell unless she has some sort of fungal skin infection, it's just skin against skin. Skin shouldn't smell.

It’s what advertisers do. Invent a problem, then sell you the solution.

It’s a grim advert and a pointless product. Just have a wash ffs.

It’s worse than that. It’s saying ‘Even though you wash, you will still need this chemical product’. Everyone (every adult) should probably use underarm deodorant even though they wash daily because there is the risk of BO if you don’t. There is no such risk for other bits of your body, and we shouldn’t be telling people that there is.

Why can't she just use her normal deodorant? There's no law that says it's only for armpits.

Please don’t shoot the messenger, haha! I don’t know, just saying my friend always jokes about deodorant for her boots.

To be fair, my feet could with some help.

For me it’s like those god awful scented Always sanitary pads that you can only seem to find in petrol stations. Never once have I met a woman and thought she must be on her period because I can smell it. Yet some idiot somewhere keeps stocking garages with these abominations.

Please tell me you’ve seen the lynx one with crotch and arse spray. Unbelievable.

I was in America earlier this year and there was an advert for one, it had a jingle that got stuck in our heads and we spoke about how unnecessary it was. Then saw this new advert this week and thought oh no, it’s made its way here! Totally unnecessary product. Surely our bodies need to sweat anyway, and a shower after a particularly sweaty day is all we need (apart from underarm deodorant)

There seems to be a craze at the moment for flogging supposed 'freshness' for your body, clothes and home by drenching them in various synthetic chemical reeks, bleurgh.

Have a wash and open the windows, job done.

I remember my DF laughing about DSM getting ready in the morning after her shower: roll on deod under the arms, then lift up each boob and roll under there, too! She had enormous norks, to be fair.

Most of us just need a roll or squoosh under the armpits. I will never deodorise my nethers.

Larger boob woman here...
I've been using it for several weeks under my boob's and it makes a difference! Definitely not as sweaty!

The clues in the name 😂
