Deodorants / Antiperspirants Quetion

Hi All,

I was not sure who to ask this question of, but I know my fellow bandsters will give me good advise.

I am down now by 40 1lbs and went out and purchased all new clothes for work. Within the last month, however, I notice I have been having a under-arm smell. I am using Secret, but it does not seem to be strong enough. My main problem, is that the smell stays on my nice new clothing, and dry-cleaning does not get it out.

I therefore have two questions.

1. Can someone recommend a really good Deodorants / Antiperspirants (Super Strength)

2. How do I get the smell out of my dry-cleanable clothes, when dry-cleaning is not doing it and I can't wash them.

Any help is appreciated...

Thanks,
Karen A

KarenA,

Sometimes my deodorants stop working for me so I have to switch out to a diffrent brand then can go back to previous brand. I also use Secret when I notice that is not working I switch either to Dove (you wouldn't think it would be strong enough but it works for me) or Lady Mitchum. I have noticed that dry cleaning dosen't always get the odor out of my clothing either, I have been told to use dress shields to place in the underarm area of the garmet to absorb the sweat instead of the clothing absorbing it. Hope I was of some help to you good luck!

I don't have issues with stinkies and it takes a lot for me to sweat, but I use Dove, have ever since I got a free sample in the mail years ago, and love it. I used Secret before that, and I'm so happy I switched. I never knew how poorly it worked for me until I tried something else. Plus the Dove just feels good to put on your skin (that why I intially switched).
