Effective deodorants

16 replies

I seem to be sweatier than I was when i was younger and although I shower every morning and use deodorant I am getting paranoid about being smelly.

At the moment I use Nivea roll on (I don't like spray deodorants) can anyone suggest a more effective one?

I think the Mitchum one is very good. I use the sprays but I think they do roll on as well.

Sure Maximum Protection. Beats Mitchum (which is fine and effective also), find it more effective but also because the roll on Mitchum takes about 2865789 years to dry and requires you to stand with you arms out for 2865789, which hurts due to lactic acid build up...

Mitchum roll-on is very good.

I have to use Driclor or Perspirex once or twice a week to control my sweating. Even the Sure Maximum ones aren't enough. You put the super strong ones on at night and wash off in the morning. They can make your armpits itchy and stingy though so I sometimes have to put a thin layer of Germolene on if it itches so much I can't sleep and that numbs it.

I can only use dove others make me smelly even though I'm not a smelly person

Meant to say the original blue top

I like Dove stick deodorant.

TheDevilMadeMeDoIt · 02/04/2016 16:34

I use Perspirex and like it. The other day I tried Driclor following another thread on here, and it took six days on strong antihistamines to get rid of the itching!

I use Mitchum roll on and a hairdryer instead of waiting 2865789 years for it to dry.

Mitchum stick

Mitchum ultimate cream deodorant, sinks in quickly and works really well.

SkodaLabia · 02/04/2016 16:40

Sure cream. Costs a fortune but works well and doesn't stain clothes.

IlonaRN · 03/04/2016 08:12

Vichy 48h

chanie44 · 03/04/2016 08:19

Sure maximum protection

BubsAndMoo · 03/04/2016 08:27

I really like Pitrok Crystal Roll-on, it's a natural mineral salt deodorant but in a roll on (when I was younger used to have those solid crystals you wet and rubbed under your arms!). Works really well for me. I get them from Amazon several at a time so always have spares in stock, not ever seen them anywhere else.
