What's your opinion on gel deodorant?

UncleWede · 06-30-2020, 12:36 PM

Crystal all the way, baby. I bought one about 8 years ago in Canada, maybe $12 (8 in the US)

Last week I ordered another one online.

Get out of shower, don't dry the pits all the way. Walk to sink, pull out crustal, rub on pits until it gets a bit painful, done.

DEODORANT, not antiperspirant.

This is a joke right?

I just hate the feeling and my armpits feel slippery for like half an hour after i put it on

No joke at all. IF you get your pits wet (not the crystal) it lasts forever

The crystal is the best stuff hands down.
No sticky gel or powdery residues eeking through to your dark shirts.
How it works is that the bacteria don’t thrive in the salts the crystal imparts to your armpits.

This!

Gel deoderants.... stink.

Sorry, couldn't help it...

Nivarox · 07-01-2020, 07:58 AM

I have not used any of those products but I have been using gel cologne .At first it's sticky but after a while all the stickiness goes off .
Gel products seem very useful and user friendly if you ask me . I have been using gel instead of foam when shaving and result is smoother

BimBimM2 this explains it more, just in case you thought I was talking about crystals like cleaning your aura. Crystal salts make a layer the bacteria dislike, they don't convert your body to smells, and everyone wins!!! Well, except the stinky bacteria.

+1, no antiperspirant for me neither, just the regular old spice ambassador or pure sport scent deodorant.

Antiperspirant is also not good for you due to the chemicals or something I've read before. Not sure on how true that is though.

I go all natural. It's safer and has provides natural scents to for all throes around. Mmmmmmmm.

Wow - if i didnt read the username I would have thought that I posted this and had forgotten!

I literally just did the same thing last week.

It was a two pack as well so I am now crying inside whether I want to just dump two in the trash.

Gel seems to make my skin not very smooth so it's a bit annoying having that added friction.

cmyx6go · 07-15-2020, 03:12 PM

Maybe you guys are using the wrong gel. I've been using Dry Idea for I can't even tell you how long. Not sticky, no friction, no residue.

I think that one is Secret. The Dry Idea isn't gender biased. My ex-husband used it.

Same here, not a big gel fan so I can't comment on any of that. Maybe if that would be about high lumen flashlight https://totalguide.org/best-tactical...en-flashlight/, I can share more about this.

upstatedoc · 07-31-2020, 03:58 PM

where do you have hair removed from?

I always love looking and searching for a great mattress for it will give me comfort when I sleep. Crave mattress https://bestmattressesreviews.org/cr...tress-reviews/ is not only one of the best bed-in-box bed brands on the market, but it is as well as one of the most affordable. You can check it as well.
