HarleyNana 10 Posted March 16, 2006 I have never been able to wear Secret, the combination of their formula and my formula makes matters worse. I use Soft n Dri, babypowder scent, not only do I stay dry and smell like a baby's butt, no stains! My DH keeps picking up Arrid, OMG, that chit leaves the worst stains.

juliek 0 Posted March 16, 2006 I use Lady Speed Stick 24 hr gel and never had a problem. Smells nice and goes on clear. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NJChick 3 Posted March 16, 2006 Yep I'd suggest trying a mans pit spray :hat: Why they think all women are dainty and don't stink is beyond me. What about those under arm shields (kinda like panty liners for the pit). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
asbrown 0 Posted March 16, 2006 This exact problem is happening to me also. AND... I wear Secret!!! I can't believe I was just talking to my hubby about it and here it is. I've been wearing Secret for years and never had an issue until about 2 weeks ago..about 2 1/2 weeks into my band-life. Weird...I thought it was just me..time to switch.

Mothernature 0 Posted March 17, 2006 Hi- I used to have to switch deodorant around the time for my period. I read somewhere that woman's scent abilities picked up due to the extra hormones during "that time". I used Secret and would notice the effectiveness would wane, so I would switch off to Degree. That seems to help. I think our body's bacteria get used to the deodorant we use. Also, as for the dry cleaned clothes, ask the person at the counter to spot-treat the under arm area, and then to process the whole garment. I used to work as a seamstress in a drycleaners, and they used to do that all the time! You are NOT alone in this! the drycleaners just treat the problem just as they would a spot that needed extra cleaning, because it did. It usually fixed the smell.

fiveholts714 0 Posted March 17, 2006 Great. I use Secret, too. I've only lost 20 pounds so I'm not stinky yet. Or if I am no one is saying anything to me! But it's good to know that maybe I will need to switch. You may also want to touch base withyour surgeon - they may know of common problems and solutions if others have complained of this.
