Best deodorant or antiperspirant for men?

Also, every few days after you get out of the shower for the night, rub your pits with lemon juice or vinegar to just clear out your pores of all of that gunk. Been doing it for a while and definitely notice a fresher smell.

I am about to start making my own deodorant as well. My boy makes his.

Coconut Oil
Corn Starch
Tea Tree Oil
Baking Soda

He keeps it in a jar and/or an old deodorant container

Copped this from whole foods, works great all day for the smell but unfortunately doesnt stop the sweating cause i sweat a lot. I dont think theres any natural antiperspirants out there that really work. But this is my go to cause im not with all those chemicals.

I dealt with the same ****, after the first day the irritation completely went away.   Ive used this for a couple years now.  What I like to do is hop out the shower, put on coconut oil/moisturizer that I make (includes aloe, shea, olive oil, and some other good stuff)

I put a little under my armpits and top it off with the Arm & Hammer.  Keeps me good to go.

Hope it works out for you, took about a month for my body to get used to it and to start seeing the benefits.

Thanks again. I'm going to work with it for the month and have my body adjust. I'm going to do this and the homemade deodorant as well that along with what someone said about doing the lemon on the armpit and this all should rid me of all evils.

Since its summer I've been sweating more so I did some research on this.

It's best to apply anti perspirant at night before you sleep and let it set it. Reapply a little bit when you wake up and you'll be good all day.

I've tried this new method and my under arms have been dry all day and don't smell.

The explanation behind it is that when you apply it at night, you aren't sweating so the chemicals can work and set in. But if you apply it in the morning, chances are all that moving is slowly causing your pours to open up and sweat to start coming out.

I've tried this to some degree. I shower at night, and just out of habit I put deo on after the shower prior to sleep. And put more on in the morning.

What's wrong with using Axe? 

Been using it for a couple years now and it hasn't steered me wrong.

Really curious on the bad things about Axe because I really have no clue...
 
[h1]The Claim: Aluminum in Antiperspirants Causes Alzheimer's Disease[/h1]
By ANAHAD O'CONNORAPRIL 26, 2005

THE CLAIM -- Aluminum in antiperspirants causes Alzheimer's disease.

THE FACTS -- Is it safe to use deodorant again? About 20 years ago, scientists noticed that the brains of people with Alzheimer's disease had high levels of aluminum, leading many people to discard their pots and pans and shun almost anything that contained the metal -- including antiperspirants.

Today, the rumor lives on, but studies have found that there is probably no reason to sweat it.

While no one disputes that aluminum can be toxic, the metal is so ubiquitous that some exposure is inevitable, and many scientists doubt that the trace amounts in antiperspirants pose any danger.

Of all the studies that examined the rumor, at least one, in 1990, suggested a possible link. But the study, which compared the habits of 130 patients with the disease to those of a group of healthy subjects, had a serious flaw: It relied on surrogates to answer for the Alzheimer's patients.

More rigorous studies have challenged the aluminum hypothesis. The most recent, published in 2002, followed 4,615 people for several years and found no increased risk of the disease in people who used antiperspirants or antacids, another common source of the metal.

As for aluminum in patients' brains, scientists say this may be a result, not a cause, of Alzheimer's. Dying cells are often unable to eliminate toxins, making them more likely to contain high levels of the metal.

THE BOTTOM LINE -- Studies suggest that aluminum in antiperspirants is safe.

Fam, all of my shirts (blue, red, black) have these damn white marks from the deodorant I use (secret) :smh: It's like as if I took the deodorant and wiped it on the pit area of the shirt. And what's funny is that it appears AFTER I wash my shirts. Anyone else have this problem?

Had the same problem when I used Secret. :smh:

How many times are y'all swiping?

If you're black and swiping until your pits look like Casper you need to reduce that by about 85%.

3-4 swipes and be on ya way.

I was just about to ask this :lol:

I swipe 5 times per pit, but I don't use that chalky white "invisible solid" bs.

If it ain't clear, I don't mess with it. Don't mess with gels either.
 
**** the sweat I use Degree for that must

I'll never forget the day in HS where I skipped it.

Was washin my pits in the sink after every bell and made sure not to raise my arms up all day.
