What works, is environmentally friendly, and doesn't epoxy the underarms of your clothes?

Salt stuff doesn't quite hack it (unless you need to put half the bar on?), roll on does but is too sticky.

Ares-hole?

Anything unperfumed - hate the smell of most deodorants. Worse than BO itself.

Boots unperfumed roll-on at 69p seems to do the job. But I also like what you are probably referring to as the salt stuff ie, pitrock and the other brand. They last for ever and survived trekking in Borneo rainforest.

Dove men care+ 48hr stick

Seems to leave a lot less on than anything else I've tried, I found the roll on ones to be the worst for leaving everything feeling gammy,

Right guard spray is bloody awful stuff too.

Nivea roll on works for me. I find that shaving my armpits makes applying it easier and there is less mess to transfer to T-shirts.

i use the Sure 24h antiperspirant stuff normally...i wear black shirts at work and havent suffered from the usual staining that you get from other antiperspirants

+1 for shaving armpits

Trimming armpit hair seems to reduce the initial smell issues as well as make it easier to apply the remedy.

Should I trim my hobbit feet as well to deal with that end?

Pitrock - the pump spray is better than the crystal stick.

Unfortunately I suffer from sweaty pits and the best stuff that I have found is Anhydrol forte.

Totally agree! Boots or Mum unperfumed work perfectly well.

The reason I ask is that a) I hate deodorant; I hate the texture, the residue and smell, and b) it just doesn't feel right to spray myself everyday from a long term health point of view (bit foil hat I know).

Now, my wife would argue differently about me abstaining from using deodorant, and the press doesn't seem to think there is a link, but plenty of sources state there are side affects.

Another vote for Mitcham.

Edit: have actually switched to Bionsen roll-on which is aluminium-free.

Dunno about all that tin foil hat stuff but I never use any. However I can see the point if, for instance, you are cycling to work and can't have a shower there

I avoid all aerosol ones as they play havoc with my skin. I would prefer not to use anything as that would cause me the least suffering but it would cause my colleagues most suffering.

another non-deodorant user here. I also dont wear synthetics next to my skin and I shave my pits. Gives bacteria little opportunity to make a scene between showers.

I have been using a PitRok stick, with reasonable success (i.e I don't ming).
