    Default It has been warm...

    and I'm looking for a good antiperspirant. Any suggestions? I use deodorant during the cooler months but have to use a powerful antiperspirant when it gets warm.

    It must be an age thing...I never use to sweet this much. lol

    I use Clubman talc all over,including the pits after a shower.Been doing this since I was a kid and has always worked for me.The talc absorbs the moisture.I just gotta be careful that its fully rubbed in before wearing dark clothes.lol I think the last time I used a stick or spray deodorant was in high school whenever I didnt have time to use the talc.

    I use Degree. It's not very exciting, but it works well.

    Try generic witch hazel with a few drops of the essential oils of your choice, followed by the application of the potassium alum block. Works for me.

    P.S., actual antiperspirants are not consoled as they block a natural body function. Deodorants and dietary changes are the healthier alternatives.

    I agree but I only use antiperspirants during warm or hot weather and only during the week.

    Any of the crystal deodorant bars are very good. I've been using them for well over 20 years and they take care of odor for sure, and also wetness. One lasts me about a year, and that's with every day use.

    What about the toms of main or kiss my face stuff, it looks like the stuff you buy at the chains but is just a deodorant.....how does that stuff fair? I also have to use antiperspirants during the summer or I look real bad as sweat stains are never stylish

    Degree Clinical seems to be working well, not perfect, but well enough.
