It works ok for me, and I work 12+ hr shifts. It's close to the same as any other drugstore brand for me

Newer Old Spice don't have Aluminum, go try it

+1 for Arm and Hammer. Just grabbed some Tom's of Maine, I'll give that a shot too.

Herbal Clear is the only one that's worked well for me:

Pros: cheap, smells good, and lasts fairly long (even with three weeks of 100+ degree weather). Cons: not as effective IMO as Arm & Hammer or "normal" antiperspirants, but it's worked well enough for me.

I've tried Tom's of Maine (which didn't mask BO and gave me an instant rash) and Arm & Hammer Essentials, which I actually really liked but also caused itchiness and skin irritation. It was quite effective though so I suffered through 3 sticks before I decided I couldn't take the itching anymore. No problems since switching to Herbal Clear.

i've used it for the last 2 years. I sweat less than no deodorant and I don't smell at the end of the day.

Baking soda ftw.


FYI this has triclosan in it

Malin + Goetz eucalyptus deodorant works like a dream, and it's pretty much odorless after you put it on.

I've used Anthony Logistics for the last two years with no problems.

really? dammit. well, it doesn't have aluminum, it doesn't stain my shirts and it works.

tom's is worthless for me and so is the salt stick at least for my arm pits. the salt deodorant spray is really good for the rest of your body though.

back to the drawing board...

^ have you tried Herbal Clear?

 

[that_was_easy]

Herbal Clear! First found it on clearance at Longs just before they rebranded to CVS, at which point they seemed to stop carrying it. I'd forgotten the name until now, but now I will by deoderant on Amazon as I do with detergent and office chairs.

I use Tom's of Maine roll on deodorant. I don't know how natural it is but I feel better about using it instead of the usual antiperspirant sticks sold at stores.

I recently tried it. It smelled great (I think you and I ended up with different scents), but started leaving rashes about a week in. This is apparently a pretty common problem.

Caveat: depends alot on your diet and/or personal body chemistry, but E.V. coconut oil is tops in my experience. A little goes a long way.

Wont stop you from sweating, but odors are nill IME.
