Schmidts all natural deodorant. Comes in a few scents, and does work.
About $6 in walmart

I use men's deodorant. Works way better!

No, I do not smell like a guy.

I use mitchum gel unscented antipersperant/deodorant. Typically, I can only find this in "men's". (Lady mitchum seems to only come scented.)

I've used this for 25+ years. I'm that committed and have found it works that well.

Have you tried Secret shower fresh? It’s ph balanced, and it smells heaven

I also use schmidts natural deoderant, it does work for me and it smells amazing (bergamot and lime) but because it contains baking soda, it has a grainy texture and so you have to let it warm up for a few seconds on your skin or it will feel a bit rough!

LaVanilla Healthy Deoderant. Tried the Schmidt’s because it’s cheaper and honestly was not fan.

So far I have always loved the pure vanilla (it is a really lovely scent) but I have a bunch of new scents to try so can update you😀

They say to put on deodorant at night before bed. That’s the way all deodorants really work....

Pure vanilla sounds awesome! Thanks! I love the smell of Schmidts, and that it actually works, but it can get a bit messy because of the baking powder! Does it leave white marks on dark clothing?

Yes. It works best after a shower, and since most people shower at night, it works best at night. After a shower, your pores are open, so the deodorant sinks all the way through your skin. Even if you don’t shower, it still is best at night because you have about 8 hours of wearing the deodorant without any activity, so it sets in really well. Also, try using a ph balanced deodorant. Which one have you tried so far?

No white marks and gentle. The Schmidts went rough and almost bumpy on me very quickly. Warming it up did not help and it irritated my skin. I liked the smell too and like I said I thought it would save me money because the la vanilla is a bit more expensive but it’s worth and a stick lasts me a year or more.

Ive tried Schmidts and Biotherm, both natural. Schmidts has baking powder and is bit messy, the Biotherm one doesn't seem to work so well. Maybe all I need is to apply it at night!
