And, I can be stinky.... It comes with menopause along with growing a moustache!! YIPPEE!

Yeah baby.........we could be sisters. But I will NOT grow old gracefully. Kicking and screaming all the way....
And with any luck as we age our sense of smell will diminish and we won't be able to smell ourselves!! And our eyesight will go and we can let those long black chin whiskers grow. And our minds will go and we won't give a crap about anything!!

I'm embarrassed to say but I've never had a painkiller. Going by whats been said about them I'd say they fit the bill.

This is too funny! I wonder if slathering the anti-bac on your pits after your shower, after SHAVING said pits will make you run around the room cussing like a sailor?
Cyp, please experiment then let me know! LOL!
P.S. I hate deodorant. All the good stuff leaves white crap all over your clothes! I use the clinical strenth too. I'd try the crystal but I hate sweaty pits just as much as stinky ones!

Just drink more rum and you won't notice or feed the one you want to get close to more rum it works both ways.

I just got back from Walgreens with 3 different types of deodorant and hand sanitizer. I'm going to give it a try tonight and I'll let you know if I'm cussing like a sailor. The bacteria explanation makes a lot of sense. I would have NEVER thought to use that on my armpits. I agree, being sweaty is as bad as stinky........and I'm a sweater.
Now that crap it leaves in your clothes is a whole "nuther" topic. What do you do with black sleeveless tops? I hate that white crap!!
BTW.......While at Walgreens, I got a box of those thing-a-ma-bobs that hold your bra straps together when you wear halter tops. I HATE strapless bras!!

I'll let yall know how they work too.
OK Tom, I'll be a good girl and follow your orders to go have rum.

My vote goes to Secret Clinical Strength too - I used and loved the waterproof version a couple of weeks ago on the island!

I'm a Secret girl too.
I used to use Lady Speed Stick, and it was pretty awesome until I developed a sensitivity to it and ended up with chemical burns in my pits. And when that happens, all you can use is dial soap and water, and you are sweaty and you are stinky no matter how much dial soap and water you use.
But, seriously, it's good stuff. I never stunk even when I was in massive pain.

I'm a Ban solid girl (paradise breeze scent) but I'm looking into some of the suggestions that have been made - not because I'm unhappy with my DO but they say it's good to change from time to time. Secret Cinical is one that I've considered so I just may give it a try.

Secret Flawless for me. No chalky mess and very effective.

I tried the hand sanitizer today after my bath, and it didn't burn at all and seems to be working great.
I know someone thought this was a silly, useless topic, but I learned something that I believe will be really helpful.
