Embarassing problem BO!

I hav enever had a problem ever, with BO, I have sweated, but its never smelt.
Recently though I have been very aware of smelly odour.
I shower every morning, and have got to the point where some days I am actually washing under my arms in teh afternoon before I do the school run.
I used to always use a roll on, then tried switching to a aerosol, then tried Mitchum roll on, which helps a bit, but now I am so paranoid i think that nothing is working - it might be, but I think it's not

Is this a health concern or just due to the fact I'm 42 this year ? Grin

I think it's your age Grin I have the same problem. Dove that you put on at night has been great for me for the last couple of weeks, but now seems to be wearing off. (I don't find Mitchum any good at all)

I'm a sweaty Betty! I never had much joy with Mitchum. I like Triple dry (usually in the same place as Mitchum in Boots) which you apply at night. It says you don't need anti-perspirant the next day, you just wash the next morning, but I use Dove Go Fresh as well. I also wait a good 10 minutes before I put my t-shirts on to allow the anti-perspirant to dry. That seems to help me.

Thank you thank you thank you for this thread.

I thought it was just me

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 23/05/2012 22:12

It's my best kept secret but its more common than you think!
Oh I keep a spare can of spray in my locker at work so I can freshen up at lunch time. I see it as extra protection :)
