Best Deo+anti perspirant

Another vote for Secret Clinical Strength deodorant. It has worked better than anything else for me...
 
For those who use the crystal stuff, would you share what brand?

I wonder if you could use both, either simultaneously or alternating.

I've been wanting to try that Clinical Strength one for ages. Time to head for CVS!
 
I believe the body was designed to sweat - it helps rid the body of toxins and keep the body cool (this is especially important during workouts!). Therefore, I refuse to use anti-perspirant. I use a natural stick deodorant (Tom's of Maine), and that's it. Works for me! :)
 
I agree with Dee- I use CertainDri, it actually stops the wetness because it somehow, plugs the sweat glands? That's what the box says. I love it.

I perspire heavily, all the time. Even when I'm not working out. I can only wear dark colored tops to work because by the end of the day I have wet spots under my arms. Very embarrassing. But, that's all changed with Secret Clinical Strength. I sound like a commercial, but it's the first thing I've tried that actually works for me.

I try to put it on before bed, but I don't always remember. During the week, I put it on in the morning, too, after I shower, but on the weekends I don't.

I already answered regarding the sweat thing--my current fave besides the Secret Clinical is Secret vanilla chai. It is wonderful:)

But in regards to the crotch area.:) This is an old trick to prevent those ugly red bumps that can arise after one shaves the bikini/crotch area. After you are done, swipe a solid deodorant stick over the entire area you shaved. Not sure why it works, but it prevents razor bumps and rash from popping up later on. Of course, have one for your pits, and one for your crotch..;)
 
Oh.....yes!!!! I sweat everywhere. If I do cardio I am so drenched I have to go home. If I go workout at the gym I have to do weights before cardio.

I'll try Secret Clinical Strength. I want to at least smell ok while working out :) I have walked pass people with BO too many times and don't want to be one of them.
 
Thanks Dee. That's pretty funny actually. A lot of the product names for these items and "natural" products are hysterical.
 
I use the Thai Crystal one, too. I think that I ordered it off of one of the sub-stores on Amazon, where it had great reviews. It really works well!

Before I started using it, I had been using Certain Dri, which is extra-potent. I teach, and I hated standing up in front of the classroom and winding up with sweaty armpits five minutes into my morning class. The Certain Dri worked, but I wanted to stay away from aluminum, which is why I switched to the Thai Crystal.

Just FYI, Thai Crystal contains Potassium Alum as its active ingredient, which is an aluminum sulfate (chemical forumal KAl(SO4)2 * 12(H2O)). So the Thai Crystal is not aluminum-free. I think most of the natural crystal deodorants contain some sort of Alum, and are therefore not aluminum-free. Just thought I'd share that for anyone who is wanting to stay away from aluminum.
 
I use Tom's of Maine. Its organic and it doesn't have aluminiun in it. I still sweeet while working out but since I breast feed I would sweet all the time this helped. I use in the morning and I put it on at night since I still get night sweets.

You can get it at Walgreens.
