I dunno if it's cause I am getting older or b/c of hormone changes but I am having the toughest time finding something that works.

i'm using dove unscented. but i don't think it works any better than my all natural deodorants. so i might be switching back to kiss my face or tom's of maine.

i have a hard time finding good deodorants too.

I'm currently using Secret Clinical strenght and it works great! But, it has aluminium in it (which is linked to alzheimers) so after my wedding I'm going to find something that is aluminium free.

Is that the aluminium chloride?
I have been using CertainDri AM roll-on. It's the only thing DH can use for his issues.

The Dove was working for 2 years and just stopped. I started with Secret, then Ban, then Dove. The Sauve is ok but it smells so strong.

Well right now I am using Degree, before I was using Secret, and I used Ban for a time. I will probably be switching from Degree cause Lee hates the way it smells. He says he can smell it really good and it is really strong (I use the powder fresh)

Crystal stick. It's great. Natural, not messy, doesn't stain, doesn't irritate -- and I do have sensitive skin, so that's an issue.

Yup, studies in Alzheimer's patients have revealed significant deposits of it at the base of the neck in the spine. I already have a horrible memory so I want to do everything I can to keep it from getting worse! It's the antiperspirant and it basically clogs the pores in your underarms and stops you from sweating.

Oh well that will be my kids problem to deal with.

I am genetically proned to it anyway. At least I will go out smelling fresh!

I use Soft & Dri Power Stripe with the scent passion flower. I basically use whatever is on sale or smells good. The power stripe ones do work good though. My boyfriend got a rash from his deoderant so he used mine (It was a pack of 2 so I had a second one to give him) and it went away and he never smelled at all and he has a problem finding a deoderant that works too.

I usually use Secret or Dove. They both work well for me.

I use the same thing, but in a roll-on -- I love it! I've been using it ever since the days when it came as a little round chunk of crystal and you had to wet it and rub it on. Great stuff!

I use Lady Mitchum unscented gel. I love it because it's clear, so it doesn't mark up your clothes. I didn't know about the aluminum chloride connection with Alzheimer's, though. I'll have to check the ingredients when I get home.
