If none of the standard stuff works, try Certain Dry. My BIL sweats a lot and that's the only stuff he's found to be effective. I've never noticed a BO odor on him.


I use the Certain Dry roll on. It needs to be reapplied every 72 hours to be fool-proof, but I often forget and do it once a week. I use Dove every morning.


So you put on Certain Dry every 3 days and Dove every morning over the Certain Dry?


You probably don't have to, but you have to realize Certain Dry is harsh on your skin and shaving doesn't help. I use Dove because it is soothing and moisturizing. I just get the cheapest deodorant (no antiperspirant) that's like 1/4 moisturizer. If you do decide to go the Certain Dry route, use the roll on, not the stick, and don't shave within about 12 hour before hand.


Every Dove product I have ever used (soap, shampoo/conditioner, deodorant, body wash) has made my skin itch like crazy.

Did your homeopathist tell you that?

Can't roll deodorant on top of funk and expect it to "work"


Just like you can't crawl out from beneath your rock and expect to be taken seriously!

Also, PP, if you find yourself needing to put deodorant on "your ass," I think you yourself need to clean better.

OP I love the "unscented" Mitchum gel. It's allegedly for men, but it has such a sweet, clean musk smell, like those simple cologne from the 80s, but it's very subtle.

Ban Unscented or Secret Unscented are my choices. I got to the point where my body chemistry combined with any scented antiperspirant/deodorant left me with terrible b.o. I've had no trouble since I switched to unscented products.

I am a sweater (that looks funny typing!) and used Certain Dri in college. It really does work but the burning sensation made me worry it was too strong.

I have been using Lady Speed Stick 24/7 GEL for a while after much trial and error and I'm very happy with it.

I use Philosophy Amazing Grace antip/deo. active ingredient: aluminum zirconium tetrachlorohydrex gly (18.0%). It is expensive - $18 for 3oz. And often hard to find in stock, even online. I ask my local Ulta manager to call me when they get some (and they only get like 2 sticks a month!). It does seem to last a long time and is the only thing that works for me.
