I don't use the products with aluminum in them, the antiperspirants have that, and deodorants do not.

I like Tom's of Maine (natural 24 hr odor protection) Long Lasting and while they have unscented, which I normally would choose, by mistake I bought the "tea tree" which has a very, very light pleasant scent that doesn't last. I will have to say that during the heat and humidity of the summer, I use it after my bath in the evening, and then again in the morning before I dress, but in cooler weather just once does the job.

There products are even available at the big box stores, and a lot of places on line. We also use the toothpaste. We avoid chemicals whenever possible.

Agreed...only use deodorant as well (not anti-persperant) since no aluminum which possibly increases cancer risk (and gives some rashes). Am a guy, so usually just get the cheapo original speed stick original scent deodorant at dollar tree.

me too!!! As it gets warmer - I sweat, not glow, sparkle, twinkle or whatever you want to call it. I sweat. and I can smell. My winter Secret doesn't work. I just discovered the Old Spice Wilderness, with Lavendar and WOW! great stuff

The last time I was shopping at a drug store for “deodorant” I was noticing how few were actually antiperspirants. You have to read the fine print. I am not interested in not stinking, Im interested in not sweating in the first place.

You can get one that is an antiperspirant and deodorant. Definitely read the labels.

Secret unscented antiperspirant/deodorant might be an option. They have other non powdery scents, too.
