Under arm build up -how to get rid of it

Like everyone else I shower and use a roll on every day but I have noticed that there is a sticky film that doesn’t come off even if I scrub hard when I am in the shower. It’s almost like a build up. I alternate between Mitchum and say Sanex or Nivea roll ones.

Any suggestions please

Try bar soap on a shower scrunching for washing under your arms.

Soap and a loofah.

Mitchum cream deodorant is a nightmare for this. Bar soap is the best at removing it. A couple of soapy washes and it goes away.

Thank you. I knew someone would know! I normally use shower gels but I know I have some bar soap lurking in the cupboard.

Soak in the bath, bar soap and Korean washcloth Italian/green.

Benzoyl Peroxide cream, just use it as a mask, leave on for 15 minutes or so then rinse. And echoing bar soap for daily use.

If you fancy a bit of a treat, a soap and kessa glove like this (probably cheaper elsewhere)
I came out the shower feeling like a slippery baby seal Grin

If you start using soap and then a natural deodorant you will find this problem disappears AND you smell even better :)

I use Mitchum roll-on every day (the unscented one) and I've honestly never noticed this.

Bar soap and scrubby gloves! Works a treat 👍
