Going without Antiperspirants - Update #1

I switched a couple months a go to Crystal Body Deodorant Stick, I am very happy with this product. Some days it doesn't seem to last all day but all it takes is a second application. I have not had any rashes or irritations at all with this and it works... SO, Win Win!

Going without Antiperspirants

I started using under arm deodorant only, doing away with the antiperspirant/deodorant combo. After first by the end of the day I could smell a very faint pit smell, asked the wife if she could too and on closer inspection she said no. A few days just using deodorant I couldn’t smell anything, I have also noticed when I am on the treadmill I do not sweat as strong all over my body like I used to and do not feel as hot. So it seems that my body can regulate the heat and sweat much more efficiently now. Sweating is our bodies way of cooling ourselves off and maybe inhibiting the process on one part of our body throws a wrench into the whole process we have used since primitive times. I still may use an antiperspirant/deodorant when I am dressed up for a function, I have not quit decided yet.

The Deodorant I am using is Tom’s of Maine, they use natural ingredients.

No longer using Tom's of Maine after having a reaction, probably due to Hops.
Now using Burt's Bees Deodorant
