So if anyone didn’t know this, antiperspirant can have a rebound effect that makes you sweat more over time. And it is also responsible for the crusty stains on your t-shirt armpits. Regular deodorant won’t do that.
When I switched to just regular deodorant my armpits stopped sweating so much after a few weeks, and then it was no longer an issue. And no more ruined shirts. Wish I had known this sooner in life.
I’m going to make a wild guess and say we probably have different DNA. 😂
Yeah I dunno, it doesn’t affect everyone like that obviously but I’ve told that to several people over the years and many of them were like “yep exactly” so it’s not that uncommon. But my pits used to soak my shirt at work, at a fucking office job. It was gross. Once I stopped using antiperspirant after reading/hearing/finding a pro-tip (from where, I have forgotten), that issue completely went away.
Just doesn’t seem to be compatible with certain body chemistry.
They’re referring to the white buildup that happens from the aluminum in antiperspirant. Deodorant without aluminum (and therefore not an antiperspirant) won’t give this buildup.
It’s an antiperspirant and contains aluminium, but doesn’t leave any gross powder or stickiness, and my bf and I never get stains on our clothes. (I have experienced all of those things with other antiperspirants, so I’m not some sort of weird edge case).
Not trying to “um, actually” you, just wondering if you know what the difference is with this product. 😃
What’s a regular deodorant? Also are there any solutions that don’t involve the plastic container for it, I’m already on solid soap and shampoo for years but my deo still produces plastic waste.
It won’t say antiperspirant on the label, it will just say deodorant, which means it doesn’t have any of the chemicals or metals they use to block your pores (or however it works, I’m not an antiperspirantologist)
Try Nuud. It’s made from sugarcane (except for the lid), and it’s a great deodorant. It’s a bit expensive but it does last a long time and functions really really well. I’m referring to the cream as I haven’t tried the stick yet.

I’ve had none of those issues. I wonder what makes the difference between our armpits?

Crusty stains? Ew.

Forgot to add, just search for plastic free deodorant, there are a bunch apparently!
