Now this may sound lame but think about it, heres some everyday carry gear you dont always talk about and its deffinetly important :D . Ive bought about 3 different deoderants in the last week ranging from old spice redzone, AXE, and speedstick, still looking for one that I like. Axe was too messy, its like a white paste that chunks off all over the place when you try to take the cap off. old spice is doing good so far. Which kind do you prefer?
 
I use Mitchum. I sweat like a mofo, and while Mitchum isn't as good as 100cc of Botox injected into the sweat glands of the armpit, it works well enough for me. .
 
I use Right Guard Xtreme Sport Ultra Gel (Fresh Blast)...With that stuff, I can easily go 2-3 weeks between showers.:D.:D.
 
I use Axe Clear Gel Tsunami. Keeps me dry and gets the ladies wet. :D
 
Yeah, but it smells like a mink in heat, is why! :D :D :D

I use Jack Daniels. It kills the bacteria and the fumes rise to my head.
 
This thread stinks!

Sorry, somebody had to say it...

I've tried various Old Spice and Gillette deoderants, and I keep going back to Fresh Scent High Endurance. I hate the sticky mess of the gooey kinds, and these don't seem to last as long. I won't use antiperspirants because the active ingredient is aluminum. High concentrations of aluminum are found in people with Alzheimers. I might just be paranoid, but at least I'll remember being paranoind when I'm 90. ;)
 
Is this what this forum has degenerated to? :rolleyes:



Oh, and I use good old Old Spice...I know you all can whistle the tune!

All together now!

O Fortuna

O Fortuna
velut luna
statu variabilis,
semper crescis
aut decrescis;
vita detestabilis
nunc obdurat
et tunc curat
ludo mentis aciem,
egestatem,
potestatem
dissolvit ut glaciem.

Sors immanis
et inanis,
rota tu volubilis,
status malus,
vana salus
semper dissolubilis,
obumbrata
et velata
michi quoque niteris;
nunc per ludum
dorsum nudum
fero tui sceleris.

Sors salutis
et virtutis
michi nunc contraria,
est affectus
et defectus
semper in angaria.
Hac in hora
sine mora
corde pulsum tangite;
quod per sortem
sternit fortem,
mecum omnes plangite!

Old spice for me! Speedstick irritates my 'pits, makes it rashy and stuff, and it's not that good. Trust me on that. I work in the outdoors as a theme park sweeper and my Old Spice held up for at least 8 hours plus overtime! And that is on a August summer!
 
Crystal Roll on body deoderant, it's hypoallergenic, no smell, non sticky, with no aluminum cholrohydrate. It's basically natural mineral slats. It comes in "rock" where you have to wet the rock and your pit to apply it, or you can buy the normal roll on type.
I gotta use it as most other make me break out into a rash, this stuff does not, benn using it since '94 or '95.
 
Just switched to Old Spice Red Zone. This stuff is powerful, it passed the test of a 12 hour day baling hay :D
Used to use Speed Stick, but something changed awhile back and it quit working. I was startin to stink an the damn greasy stuff wasn't good for much other than pre treating your shirt with pit stains :barf:
With old spice you don't even need to take showers ;)
 
Old Spice and Old Spice Redzone. I used to use Right Guard but that stuff didnt work and was too wet. Redzone does the job... just watch the commercials :)
 
The approach you need for deoderant depends on whether you have mainly self-produced musk, or if you get bacteria, yeast and fungus causing a stinky rot in the warm dark moistness. Some things that I have used to reduce microbial action and have heard of others using with fair success in reducing resulting odor:

Vinegar. Not as long lasting as some things, but keeps bacteria and fungus from blooming in the moist heat and causing a stink for hours. I just have to remember to keep the sprayer away from any razorburn... :eek: This can be diluted to reduce discomfort of application, but I have sprayed or wiped on straight 5% with a great reduction in stench, and the added advantage of wiping out my athletes foot.

Colloidal Silver. Most of the advantages of vinegar, and more. Longer lasting, no mess or smell. Not as easy to buy or store, but a bit easier to make yourself...

Alcohol. Sort of like listerine for the underarms... Not as long lasting as the above. Listerine could also be used.

Other items can be used such as:
HOH or hydrogen peroxide. Tends to eat holes in the clothing and not as long lasting as the others.
Betadyne... This might be rather effective, but the resulting color may be rather socially inconvenient.
 
Grommit- That is the first time I have read about colloidal silver being used for body odor. Do you make your own or buy it. I am looking for a good source. Can you tell me anything about this web site that sells it? Link removed I am needing a source I can trust. Thanks.

This thread is the pits. There, someone had to say it.

I have used Speed Stick Ocean Surf for longer then I can remember. Of course, I can't remember what I had for lunch.:rolleyes:

Anyway, here, it's a dry heat and I don't sweat much.
