I am willing to deal with the evils of anti-perspirants just so I don't have to smell myself or see myself sweat all over my clothes. I have enough social anxiety in my life already. I am just all about the fragrance free stuff.Left-Handedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05635327823530813335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37801529.post-41099347428554587472007-04-17T00:16:00.000-07:002007-04-17T00:16:00.000-07:00I'm with you, Wynne.

I've often said that the thing that scares me most about the idea of apolcalyptic Last Days of trial, trouble, and upheaval is not hunger (easy to say as I've never been horribly hungry in all my life) but rather not being able to clean myself up for weeks or months. Having to confront my own stenches, in all their varieties. The horror!<BR/><BR/>As for Dove -- I can't believe they have a non-anti-perspirant deodorant. I thought I'd scoured all the "normal" brands for a women's deodorant-only, and I found nothing. I'd be interested to know where you get it and if it's actually effective with no scent and no sweat control. Sounds like voodoo.Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10389656325499233438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37801529.post-87185284363948849632007-04-16T18:01:00.000-07:002007-04-16T18:01:00.000-07:00I am smelling my art pits right now.I swear by Dov...I am smelling my art pits right now.<BR/><BR/>I swear by Dove's sensitive skin fragrance-free deodorant. I hate when all of the sudden I can smell that potent deodorant fragrance kicking into gear to compensate for a little persperation. It is like a constant reminder through out the day that my arm pits may at this very moment be stinky. Or that my deoderant might be competing with perfumes, lotions, body sprays, and other love potions. I just want ONE smell.Left-Handedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05635327823530813335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37801529.post-6483201756183162832007-04-04T13:51:00.000-07:002007-04-04T13:51:00.000-07:00Actually, it's funny that you posted this. I've be...Actually, it's funny that you posted this. I've been going through a related misery myself (why is it that a deodorant can work one month, and not the next? How is it that the body builds up a tolerance to something that will keep it stink-free? Phoo!), and I have decided that if there were one thing that I could change about my body, it would be odor.<BR/><BR/>I mean, I don't want a nose job, a tummy-tuck, liposuction, or a hair transplant. The things I've never liked about my body seem rather small compared to the problem of odor. Please, please, please, spare me the odor. Get me a deodorant that works, and then get something for my feet (that doesn't make them smell like they've been chewing gum--that's some stuff I use right now--minty fresh!), and get me some prescription-strength anti-stink gum or something for my breath. And there I will stop--because I've embarrassed myself enough for one day--but there are more odors I would like conquered!<BR/><BR/>Blech! Lavender, indeed.wynnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02105342199853174222noreply@blogger.com
