Okay...not a very fun subject but, I want your suggestions so I am going to be brave and just put it out there.

I have been using men's deoderant for a few years because I got tons of it on sale for really cheap a few years ago and we have been using up that stock for a long time. I really like it though because it seems to work better for me than women's. However, my DH asked me to start wearing women's again cuz he doesn't like the "man" smell. :giggle

I admit that I don't like smelling like a man sometimes either. So, I went out and bought myself some Secret gel type (because I don't like the powdery ones - don't like that you can see it) and it just isn't working for me! I put it on twice the other day and still felt like I was stinky! When I was using the men's, I could even go for my run and still didn't have stinky under arms.

What types/brands do you girls use?
 
Just the regular original baby powder style of Secret. I've been using it since I was a teen and it works - love it!!
 
Lots of chicks are using men's D/O for the B/O! Nothin' wrong with that at all!
 
i use degree.. i found that with those super powered ones they'd eventually just stop working on me.. -.- wtheck? I switched to regular ole degree a few months ago and no problems.
 
I usually use lady Mitchum gel but sometime secret or suave clinical. I feel I need serious protection too. lol. Mitchum makes an unscented men's gel too that my husband uses.
 
I use the Secret Gel and it seems to work good for me... I sweat a lot too usually, I am so hot-natured. The one I use is deodorant AND antiperspirant.
 
I would say make sure it is deo. and antiperspirant, but for me I mainly use Secret clinical strength, but I HATE the price!
 
I use Degree...the one with the little black dress on it! I've used it for years now and I love it!
 
I find that I have to switch every few years because they always stop working. And then after a few years I can switch back. LOL. I just had to stop using dove last year and switched back to degree after a 6 year break and it's been working great for me (same as Debra - the one with the little black dress).
 
I ran 139 miles in the month of March. I pretty much stink all the time, no matter what.
 
Secret Gel in the Cherry Mischief flavor that smells really good!
It's clear, so it doesn't come off on your darks, like that alot.
It seems to work just fine for me!
 
I use this one which is mens but the smell is not very strong. It's the best deoderant I've ever used so I don't care if I smell like a man..at least it's not stinky man! :giggle

I needed to read this thread! I'm a sweaty gal. I put on deodorant several times a day. I actually never thought about trying men's, but you know, I just may do that. I used to use Dove and it just flat out quit working for me. I've been pretty happy with the Degree for women, but like I said, I put it on several times a day...and that's not normal. I've wanted to try the Degree Clinical Strength, but I can't make myself pay that much for deodorant!!
 
i use degree too .. and i try to use spray deodorant whenever possible - i don't like sticks/gels/rollons ...
