What deodorant do your pre-teens girls use?

Dd is 11 and has been using Fresh Kidz. I'm not sure it's working properly or if she needs something stronger as she gets quite whiffy.

What do your dds use?

My DSD (12.5) uses a Mitchum roll on. We bought sprays but she doesn’t use them. To be honest she’s a bit wiffy (but can’t smell it herself). She refuses to bath or shower and it’s even a struggle to get her to use deodorant. We have to remind her in the morning.

Dove.

My DD uses Michum roll on as she can be very smelly.

your dd is using a deodorant not an antiperspirant. Dd uses a garnier minerals antiperspirant

Dove roll on and spray. School only allow roll ons .

So it's ok to use a regular deodorant now rather than a 'natural' one?

Mine uses Weleda Rose Deodorant. It is effective and free from aluminium.

My DD who is 12.5, now uses whichever spray that happens to be on offer. Blush

Deodorants/antiperspirants only work on clean skin! Your daughter needs to be encouraged to bath/shower more regularly or she'll find other kids at school will be telling her how she smells and she won't like that.
