underarms smell

[fillme]

I have this smell in my underarms which just woulnd't go away. Before I was skinny and there was no smell but the more I am bulking up the more it seems to be lingering on. I shower with soap each evening after work. Before going to work I sometimes apply deodorant but the smell comes back soon after the deo's effect is gone. There is usually no smell after my evening-shower but it tends to grow over-night and stays the whole day. I tried to shower in the morning in which case the smell starts in the evening and stays the whole night till I shower the next morning.

Is there any remedy/ solution for this?

You're probably dependent on aluminum based anti-perspirants. I've begun using Toms of Maine natural deodorant. Works like a charm for me.

If it doesn't work, get some botox injections in your pits to stave off the sweats.

I found that anti-perspirants are great for preventing the smell, while deodorant just covers it up.

If you're using deodorant, try using anti-perspirant instead.

Shaving your armpits sounds gay, but its effective. Reduces the surface area, which limits the production of bacteria. Bacteria is what causes the smell. Also, girls aren't too fond of pit hair.

Yeah shaving helps a lot in geting rid of the smell.. An alternative would be just get some scissors and a comb.. and just trim them..

 

[Skilla_Staz]

Eh, trimming. Might as well just shave them off. Looks better anyways. I guess if you're afraid of taking a razor to your pits though, you could trim. Hm.

But if you completely shave, they might question your sexuality

I prefer trimming. I don't have a problem if I apply deoderant before I go out. I usually do once before work or school, then a second time if I go out after work/school. I also had to experiment with different brands before I found one I was happy with (Old Spice). Different brands work better or worse depending on the person's chemistry.

Can anyone explain my random periods of random wetness? It normally happens when I'm sitting, arms horizontal to the ground. After about 20 minutes, sometimes I get this bead of....sweat that runs down my inner arm. It's really annoying

It also happens that I could be doing completely nothing and I end up with a shirt armpit area completely wet, yet I could be doing light work and have nothing. (yes, if I work hard, I'll get wetness)

Hah maybe. Only if you give them a chance to question it though. I shave as much of my body as I can. Most girls enjoy the soft smooth feel of Staz

Today I went out & bought a Rexona anti-perspirant deodorant. It works great. I have thrown-out the the deodorant that I been using
Thanks guys!

Speed stick 24/7.

Pick up either Dri-Sol or Certain-Dri. They're made by the same people, but one is only available by prescription. The problem you're having is due to bacteria; by using either of these products each night you won't have to worry about the wetness which leads to subsequent foul odor.

Will either of those two products knock out random wetness such as in my case?

I'm sitting here, and once again my armpits have started to drip sweat spots down. Does anyone have a solution to getting rid of dripping sweat, especially since I'm only sitting here, in a cool enviroment.....?

 

[Keeper]

Yeah... move to a warmer enviroment. I know it sounds strange, but there's this thing about the water particles on your pits condensing into droplets much faster if that area is... uhm... cold.

I use Mitchum! The anti-persperant that won't fail you! Seriously, you can do swimming with this stuff on - instead of a dry-suit.

This is true. Sh!t is magick. I like the gel.

I disagree with such statement. The society has made us to believe women should be the only class to maintain proper hygen. There is nothing gay about shaving one's ampit. Keep your self clean.

I live in a naturally cool enviroment, I would rather be cool then warm, as I tend to overheat quickly.

I'll try some of that Mitchum though, I'll post my results.
