Good deodorant for exercising women?? (workout, eating, shape, best)

[TabulaRasa]

Another vote for Degree, here, both because it works well as an antiperspirant and deodorant, and also because it's literally the only stick antipersp/deodorant that I've ever used that actually delivers on the promise to be for-real invisible and not to leave a nasty residue that builds up on/ruins clothes.

Have you tried Secret?? That works well, and using some perfume helps--Spray all the hard to get to areas and you will be fresh and clean like a rose garden!!! Works for me--I can't stand stinky!!! LOL

Yep tried Secret. It doesn't work for me. Most of the scents I am also allergic too on top of that.

Yeah in judo it was a little too close for comfort sometimes. I also remember a guy who biked to work and he always smell like a horse when I walked past his desk. I thought it had something to do with body hair allowing bacteria to grow when sweaty so that's where the stink comes from. I shave though being a girl of course.

I am in the weight room twice a week where I am typically the only female. Everyone is sweaty yet I do not smell BO ever. Yes it is possible that our noses have different levels of sensitivity... but don't you think you owe it to yourself to find out whether you really do stink or if its just your own perception?

Ban worked well, but I swapped to Dermadoctor's brand of antipersperant (it's a roll on). It works awesome, but it's expensive.

Have you tried the deodorant crystal? It works better for me than anything else.

im not a woman but what I do for deoderant is just shave my arm pits. I am allergic to some deoderants but if you just shave them and wash them after you are done they shouldn't stink. Another thing that works is to shave them and just take a cotton ball put rubbing alochol on it and dab your arm pits with alochol.

I'm a woman for crying out loud. Of course I shave my pits daily or ever other day depending on how fast the hair grows.

I have the solution Look at all my modesty

I had the same problem. I was showering multiple times, using manly deodorant, etc. You name it, I probably tried it.

You know what works?

Baking soda.

That's it. It's cheap and it works!!! Just spill some into your hand and splash it on the pits. You won't smell even after working out. You can even just get some in your hand and make it into a paste with some water and wash your pits with it. It works better than any deodorant I've ever used. I don't even remember what body odor smells like I also have pretty bad allergies and most deodorants leave me with a rash. Baking soda is amazing and there isn't any junk in it!

Good luck! Let me know if it works for you.
