at that age I would veer towards salt deodorants

I think boots sell them too. Lloyds pharmacies sell a sample size one.

totally natural with no nasties.

You may be Hmm at £4 but it will last you years and years.

I don't dry me pits after a shower and put it on wet. rather than wet the end like it suggests.

I second Furball's suggestion of salt/crystal deodorants as they are gentle, safe and effective. I use this and it works very well, better in my experience than things like Mitchums 48hrs and because it is a stick rather than an aerosol you are not breathing the product in. It is also easy to use and lasts for ages.

I have just been through this with my DD. She did not like the salt/crystal deodorants and we ended up going with dove.

I bought Bionsen for dd9, it's in the supermarket, it's a deo, not an antiperspirant. not sure what to give a boy tho.

hth.
