That's so American of you! I use Gillette ClearGel Anti-Perspirant with Micro-smooth Grid Applicator. Powerful wetness and odor protection that goes on cleaner and smoother. Advanced clear gel formula dries quickly to form an invisible barrier of protection. Doesn't leave a white flaky residue.

LOLLLLLLLLLLL

I hate their advertising, but Axe's Pheonix line is absolutely perfect for me. Typical deodorant smell with some sweet citrus.

Well I use a variety. I have an allegic reaction to the clear "gel" types, so I usually use one of the white solids.

I like sport or fresh scents, the brand varies. I like to change out occasionally.

I think scented deodorant is really gross. I want to smell CLEAN, not like perfume or musk or flowers or man-attracting pheramones. Maximum strength anti-perspirant all the way. I use Arrid XX, and it works relatively well.

scented gel and we've now reached yet another low of lows when the topic of conversation is our deodorant preference! Come on Caslon, give us a cat licking his pits (all 4), this is your show! LOL

I think it is Mennen speed stick, but I am not sure. As long as it works and does not smell much I am happy.

Ultra Dry Degree Invisible solid - Cool Rush scent.

Although, you have to wait a minute or two to put a shirt on before it becomes invisible.

Arm & Hammer unscented. I'm allergic to most deodorants/antiperspirants--annoying itchy rashes under the arms are not fun--so I found one that I don't have a reaction to and is unlikely to go out of business any time soon. It's actually been so long that I can no longer remember whether Ban or Sure is the only other major brand I'm capable of using.

OMG, so do I! Which is why I use [looks to the sky and doesn't believe he's about to reveal this personal bit of info on himself] a female deodorant. Yes, I know - but it works great!

Secret...strong enough for a woman, but made for J-Dub. Way cool you admitted it. Hell, I have to wear women's golf gloves because the men's are too big. Plus, I just like the pink color.

I doubt the stares J Dub gets in the gym is for his deodarant. Is that Secret in your bag or are you happy to see me???

It's a relief to see no one has answered "I don't use deodarant."

Currently Old Spice High Endurance Anti-Perspirant.
I just saw this new line of $7 "Professional Strength" ones yesterday at the grocery - and their contents of Aluminum Zirconium Tetrachlorohydrex Gly (active ingredient) is only 1% higher than the one I bought for $2.50! Crazy!

There's a guy who trains where I do who STEEEENKS. Jaydub, want to have that conversation at my gym?

Very NOT effective.

I use Right Guard Xtreme Invisible Solid - that is VERY effective

However, now that I'm going to be more active, I need even more protection... so I'm going to look for a stronger one...

If you have a SERIOUS musk like most of my friends do - Right Guard Xtreme will do you WONDERS!


PS
I hate liquid gels - they never work for me - no matter what form it comes in.

I have found Mitchum unscented clear gel anti-perspirant and deodorant to be very effective. Most important for me is the fact that it is unscented.

I've been using Tom's (of Maine) deodorant for a couple years, because I was getting tired of my white t-shirts turning yellow in the pits (it's from the aluminum of antiperspirants). But it just doesn't last as long, so I'm switching to the "clinical strength" stuff now.

Any ideas runners?


Just reapply or shower up. You can't expect to smell daisy fresh after long periods of intense exercise.

My ex HATED when i used deodorant. He loved it natural and was one of those pit sniffers. When I started to use SURE unscented he left me.

Same here. Right Guard Extreme. Others either have a smell I can't stand or they irritate my skin.

But does it include a deodorant? (I'm actually serious, are there antiperspirants that are deodorant free?)

Lynx "Cool Fresh" or "Fresh Mint" or something like that. It smells like peppermint (my favourite flavour and smell in the whole wide world, although if it could be choc-mint... YUM)

I use Old Spice Red Zone. Almost everything else gives me a rash.

I've tried several of the organic versions including Tom's of Maine, J/A/S/O/N, and Herban Cowboy. The only one that actually worked was Herban Cowboy, but it also gave me a rash...

I use an environmentally friendly completely organic deodorant, I switched from an aluminum based antiperspirant a couple of months ago when I got sick of my shirts being ruined by the white formation in the under arm area that no amount of washing, soaking or anything else would get rid of.

Now, I use the tw0 separately

I have a big sweating problem, so I use odaban which is an aluminum based and you apply it before going to bed and wash it off in the morning.

Helps control the sweating to no end YAY but the itching can dry your batty!

So now I have tshirts that last and dry underarms which I never had

Great question.

I use the crystal stick by crystal body deodorant. it last about year. great value!

it's the safest of all deodorants!
Hypoallergenic, fragrance & paraben free,
NO propylene glycol
NO aluminum chlorohydrate

antiperspirant is very bad you. natural and normal to sweat.
