Well, I’ll Just Have To Smell Then!

Dove make a roll-on that is just deodorant not antiperspirant and doesn’t have aluminium salts in. It smells of cucumber and green tea.

Just a little thought - perspiration is a natural bodily function - it needs to happen. If you stop it from happening under your arms, gravity will take it elsewhere - and you’ll all end up with smelly wet feet!!:-D:-D:-D

ST, l was thinking about trying Dove roll on deodorant as l use their soap.
There are so many deodorants to choose from and l am sensitive to so many additives and chemicals in things. It’s a bit of a minefield really.

I find it OK - quite gentle - and it doesn’t mark your clothes.

A roll-on type from Lidl’s Cien for men range - usually the Aqua, free from alcohol fragrance. It has a nice cucumbery smell.

Who wants to smell like a cucumber?

There was a time when deoderents were not invented
as a child many years ago I can’t recall any foul odours enimating from anyone . Perhaps because we spent lots of time outdoors in the fresh air and did not digest chemicals.
Some deoderants have a sickly smell.and some men overdo the 'Spalshing all Over.

What’s wrong with nice Carbolic Soap on freshly bathed man?

I haven’t seen Carbolic soap for a long time - can you still buy it?

Be careful Judd!

Some one may want to take a bite out of you!

Yes Mags, Amazon sells it but it may not be quite the same as the original one.

HA! Ha! True.

Just put some fresh Rose Petals down you top.
All natural.

We both use Mum unfragranced, zero alcohol, zero aluminium salts, roll on antiperspirant. No itching, no scratching, no bother.

I don’t use any deodorant I hate the stuff.
Only ‘stale’ perspiration smells unpleasant if you wash regularly and change your clothes deodorant isn’t necessary .

Some people use deodorant to mask the smell of unwashed bodies :shock: I used to smell them in the days long ago when I went to the shops.

I’ve mostly used this one for years, and it’s only £4.95:

Urtekram Natural Deodorant - ROSE CRYSTAL ROLL ON - Preservative &...

I only use roll-ons, never sprays.

@Artangel

I don’t like spray deodorants, as l find them too overpowering and they make me sore.
Yesterday, l went to buy the roll on deodorant Amplex Caring that l have used for years. It is the only one that suits me but it seems to have been discontinued! Grrrrr…

What do you use? Do you prefer spray deodorants or a roll on one?

I swear by regular washing! :shock::shock::shock:

Not that I’m suggesting that you don’t wash, Angel!

[Rox]

I don’t like under arm deodorant, I use a body spray instead. Impulse. I find it good and lasts all day.

[Bratti]

@carol

I don’t like sprays either - I use Mitchum roll on.

Never had any skin problems with it.

Yes! I never use anti perspirant spray; just roll on.
Women’s Mitchum triple fence shower fresh or all natural ones from the health food store.

That looks very nice. I prefer aluminum free also but don’t always use it

[TessA]

If you don’t find one to suit you Art, can we call you Stinky Malinky?

Thanks Bratti.
I have always got on with that one, so no need to change.
