Girls - which deodorant?

Former Member

I know this should probably be in health, but I wasn't really sure.

I'm having troubles finding a good deodorant, I generally use spray ones and not a roll on 'cause I find roll on's a bit sticky.

So if anyone could recommend any they find particularly good, it'd be appreciated.

I actually use dove stick & spray, always have found it to be good & smells nice too.

Former Member

I use the pink Mum roll on. I did use the Superdrug's pink one for a while but it was shite... but my current one stays fresh all day. And I spray spray deodrant over the top, makes it dry faster

Former Member

I use sure roll on normally.

see i use vaseline intensive care aloe fresh too. but i still get the occasional small wet mark from sweating. i shower regularly, and it doesn't smell or anything. just incase anyone thinks i stink.

Sure roll on

Former Member

Yeah I use the Mum roll on one, I find that sprays don't really act as an effective anti-persperant as they come off too quickly, where as with roll ons they tend to stick for a lot longer. Roll ons are ok if you've got time to leave them to dry.

I find I put roll on, on then run around in my bra finishing getting ready to wait for it to dry before dressing my top half.

I used to use that.

I've used Dove for sensitive skin for a while now, the roll on cream type thing. I really like it, its gentle on your skin, and I'm yet to have a problem with it.

I dont like sprays, they suffocate me.

Sanex are the only ones that don't give me a rash!

LancÔme Bocage roll on.
I love it. One I've had from the start. Never felt the need to change. And when I use other deodorants I always feel "dirty", as they don't do as good a job.

Former Member

Secret clear gell scented peach shimmer. it works and smells yummy.

i didn't even know they made spray deordant anymore

Former Member

I use Dove roll on cause it doesn't sting if you use it right after shaving.

Former Member

Former Member

cheers everyone.

Former Member

I use Sure Crystal,

Former Member

I use sure stick, but ive been getting a really bad rash with it recently ouchies

Former Member

Sure is good as far as roll ons go but if you want a good spray deoderant then the adidas 'woman' range are good - some smell better than others however so be careful to get the nice smelling one ;-)

Actually I use the little Nivea one. Might be a bit expensive (I don't actually know, Mum pays for the essentials), but it's really good. And the one in my handbag is a lifesaver in this weather!

Which one do you use for in your handbag? I use Mitchum roll on, it's the only one that keeps the sweat patches away cos I'm quite a sweaty gal for some reason

I was gonna start a topic on this in health. I've been using Dove for ages, fine no probs but now in the hot weather, I can't even walk to the bus stop without getting sweat patches, its awful. I look so disgusting! I can't wear anything thats tight tshirt like as i get sweat patches and it has to be dark or it shows up even on vests! Its so embarrassing. It doesn't smell so its not a problem with the deodorant but but what can I do to stop the sweating!!!? please help! What are the strongest ones that you can use-that don't smell like a bloke or cost a tenner?

Former Member

I use sure active response ... I used to use Dove but gave up on that.

Jowolvo... you can get deodrants that you put on at night to stop sweating they work for a few days at a time, maybe try Boots see if they sell it there. I cant remember the name of it though sorry.

Mitchum is the strong one I think. it doesnt cost much more than a normal one and they sell them at savers chemist. on the pack it says `so effective you could even skip a day`.

I just use whatevers on special offer and smells nice.
ive also got one of those little nivea mini ones for my bag too.

Former Member

i thought mitchum was amazing when i first used it - about 6 months ater and its barely noticeable that im wearing it.

i'm thinking i'll start trying guys anti-perspirants soon as they're supposed to work better!

I use "Perspirex", you can get it from Boots and its about £7ish for a tiny bottle. When you see the size of the bottle you wonder if you're wasting your money but it does work!! You put it on at night and then wash it off in the mornings, it does sting quite a bit but after a few uses it usually stops. I think you have to put it on for two days when you first start or haven't used it in ages but you won't need to apply it again for a couple of days. The bottles small but it lasts for ages, i got mine months ago and theres still loads left!
