Don’t sweat the small stuff.

[ButThreeLeftsDo]

I can’t use antiperspirants. I got a really nasty staph infection due to clogged pores.

[ThisLittleLightofMine]

That’s interesting, I get bkackheads when I use stick, but no problems when I use spray.

I’ve never put much stock in deodorants. They don’t stop the sweat.

Anti perspirants are more effective.

The solution is to tape a 1/2” copper elbow under each arm to contain odors.

George Carlin also recommended a bay leaf but you smell like soup.

I remember Katy winters. I heard she died of frozen armpits.

But she was cool, calm and dry.

The People’s Pharmacy online has MOM( Milk of Magnesia ) deodorant.

From the excerpt:

Deodorants are formulated to eliminate armpit odor but not perspiration.

[Laslo Fripp]

A blonde walked into a pharmacy and asked the druggist for some deodorant for her boyfriend.

”Do you want the ball type?” he asked.

”No,” she replied, “the underarm stuff will be fine.”

haven’t needed those products since college - no odor no need despite eating lots of garlic and onions - besides they disrupt the natural flow of fluid needed to cool skin. It may be that all those products sealing skin pores cause odor unless used.

Get Caldesene baby powder with zinc oxide. You don’t stink, and it kills coronavirus, too!

My dad smeared Arrid extra dry aluminum cream on himself every day for decades. Died of Alzheimer’s. Don’t do aluminum.

Here in New Mexico, it’s a dry heat. I’m good with that.

Jovan Musk three-ounce stick, in red-orange cylinder, made by COTY, bar code 35017 02288, discontinued long ago.

Must get the original, not the revised formulation.

Absolutely the best. Nothing even comes close.
