I don't have a suggestion, other than I have used Speed Stick (the sticky green gooey one) in a pinch at the lake before, and despite smelling all guy like, it worked.
Mix it up with your current favorite.

Try it. :D

As in use a different one each day. Use the "good smelling" one when it matters.
I wonder if you could just mush them together with a putty knife (the good smelling girly one with the works great guy stuff), then squish it all back in the original D.O. packaging. . . I'm going to try this!
I don't think that will work :lol:

You body adjusts to everything, be it deodorant, shampoo or prescription drugs.

Try it. :D

Try SJfromNJ's too!

Smelly armpits are not to be taken lightly. I've even lifted my arm and asked Crash to take a whiff. AND HE DOES! And tells me if I'm stinky or not. Now that's love! Or maybe he doesn't want to be walking around with his stinky wife! :roll:

Bev, I'm sure you are not stinky..........I just have a problem with my deodorant working at some times and not another. I didn't think this was a terribly offinsive topic, so here I go..........letting my big mouth get the best of me. :oops: I just want to find the best DO, that works in the hot, sticky, islands.

OK...my for real might be a little different than others.

I used to swear by "Dry Idea" Roll-on....always kept me fresh and dry. But then my world changed when I got breast cancer and I decided that it was smart to think about what I smeared on my body...so I began using a paraben/ Aluminum chlorohydrate free product called Crystal and it is the best product for me...and I can't imagine ever accepting a product that still allowed me to "stink"! It is a deoderant , not an antiperspirant...there is a difference.

I can honestly tell you that it is an even better product than my old "dry idea" and it lasts a long time!

Try it! I can find it in my grocery store now...

I stopped wearing deodorant daily years ago because of the chemicals on the body thing (used to wear Sure Unscented Solid and still do every once in a while.) I've also used the anti bacterial hand gel trick, and it does work. Got mine from Bath & Body Works in the travel size - you might want to give it a try.

That anti bacterial idea makes perfect sense. I'll give that a try.

Thanks guys!
