r/deodorant

I bought 2 sticks around a month ago and just got charged 47$ for them again. Who is using that much deodorant and why would there ever be a subscription for this. I have yet to receive a response, has anyone else had this happen?

Edit: Just got a response, they said a refund is not possible.

Hello,

31F with eczema and a sensitivity to aluminum. Basically my whole life I have stayed away from deodorant with aluminum. When I was younger if I used aluminum deodorant my armpits would break out into these rashes and I'd itch and they'd bleed. Since I was about 13??? I've use all different types of deodorants.
Toms, Native, Arm & Hammer, Kopari, my sister and I even made our own deodorant for YEARS with coconut oil, arrowroot powder and I believe essential oils? I stopped using that because I'd ruin my shirts with the oil.

Basically at this point, sometimes the deodorant will wear off and then my armpits will get stinky. I'll re-apply the deodorant but the stink has already gotten into my clothes. I'll wash my clothes and then when I go to wear them they smell fine, but if my arm pits start to sweat, sometimes the armpit in the shirt will start to smell.

I'm sick of this and I don't care if the deodorant that I need to use costs me $50!!!!

Someone help me figure this out. Should I wash my clothes with something to get the odor out? I've tried oxyclean and it doesn't really seem to help.

I’ve tried every single deodorant out there and recommended. Anything antibacterial makes things worse. Aluminum free doesn’t work. Sweat isn’t the issue. I don’t have hyperhydrosis. Not sure what the issue is.

Would love y’all’s recommendations for plastic free deodorant that doesn’t leave oily spots/ residue?
Using a mineral rock after showers but need something for other days. I liked native’s plastic free but seems to leave alot of oily residue on my dark colored scrubs …. Thanks!

I work in a warehouse building panels, there’s no AC, I am on medication that makes me sweat, also I just don’t do great in the heat anyways. I need deodorant and or antiperspirant recommendations preferably for women but anything that isn’t to intense smelling is fair game. Tysm

Hello, guys. Please help me 😔

I have been experiencing underarm odor along with darkening of the skin.

• Belo Intense White Roll-On was effective as an antiperspirant, but I noticed it contributed to the darkening of my underarm.

• Deonat Papaya did not effectively control odor or sweat.

• Belfour caused yellow stains on my clothes and left my underarm feeling excessively dry.

Can you suggest for a deodorant that:

1. Effectively controls odor and perspiration.

2. Does not cause underarm darkening.

3. Does not leave stains on clothing.

4. Is affordable yet effective.

EDIT: After multiple emails to Carpe, advising them I have filed a complaint with the BBB(which I actually did and fully intended to pursue) and left this review on multiple other sites, they have emailed me saying luckily they were able to “catch my order” before it shipped. Seems all very scammy and shady as they first clearly stated they can’t do that once an order is created as they process and ship too quickly. So, it seems like they didn’t even check first before giving me their general spiel. It did take a lot of back and forth for them to cancel it and refund me though, because they first offered a full refund for in store credit, then a 50% refund and keep the product, then a full refund if I paid for return shipping with tracking and insurance once I received the package. I advised them I was not happy with any of those options and would continue with my complaint process with the BBB and they contacted me quickly advising of the order cancellation and full refund. I’m glad and thankful they finally cancelled and refunded, but man, was that a hassle. I would have been a repeat customer as I like the product but I don’t repeat deal with companies that are less than honest in their marketing and/or business practices. Honestly around $90 may not seem like much, but for deodorant and a surprise charge, in this economy especially, it would have been significant loss. I know other people have had this happen so I hope this post helps you to hopefully not even order the first time or be hyper vigilant to not subscribe if you do.

I ordered about a month ago with Carpe, but it did not mention it being subscription based. I truly thought I was ordering once just to try the product. Moving forward though I will NOT be ordering from Carpe ever again as their predatory subscription process is very misleading and dishonest. I originally ordered 4 sticks of their deodorant product and haven’t even gotten through my first stick when I recently got a notice of Carpe charging me for Another 4 sticks less than a month later for close to $100. I mean, who really needs that much deodorant? No one, and I think they know that and are taking advantage of people with their marketing. And, since the order hasn’t shipped, why can’t I just cancel the order, their company site shows once an order is created they can’t cancel it and I have no idea why not. I also can’t even cancel my subscription right now with the order created so it’s like they’ve taken my card hostage until the order ships which feels very scary to be honest as I do not want to be charged by Carpe yet again and they’ve proven to be a very deceptive company. Additionally, I cannot even edit or delete my card information on their company site as it shows that they don’t have the capability to do so “in-app” which makes no sense either as I was on their website. I would not recommend this company to anyone I know and have contacted them for a full refund and cancellation of the 2nd surprise order and the subscription. I’ve seen other reviews that their customer service is abysmal though so I am hoping they are actually helpful in this matter, but I have low hopes based on what I’ve read.

I finally listened and got it to try... It doesn't work even half as good as my normal degree deodorant. It is absolutely buns.

So I use clinical strength secret completely clean for my underarm which I guess seem to work also for odor. But the one I actually need opinion about is what do you put on your underboob to prevent sweat and smell? I'm heading to Vegas not only for a road trip, but because I'm attending a concert at night time and I don't want to smell or worry about sweat there. What products do you guys use? Anything that I can just use right away please

yung anak ko teenager, sympre lalo na pagnagdalaga minsan dun tlga malakas yung body smell diba, as in dami na namin natry na deos for her, kaso di tlga effective, tas alam nyo tinry lang namen yung malinee kasi nga naubusan so need pa kasi bumyahe to go to watson ganyan. so bumili muna me for he meantime. kasi like gagamit sya ng deo pero may amoy parin tlga, tas eto na nga tinry namen gulat ako for the day walang amoy tlga. kaya sabi ko ang galing haha tinry lang natin tas yan pa yung naging effective. pero diba kasi di naman sya sikat na brand.

I swear I shower everyday and I’m clean but after a few hours my armpits will get sweaty and kinda stinks. I need to change my deodorant so pls help me

I signed up directly through Mando and ordered 2 sticks (Pure Sport & Cedar Something) and truly enjoyed it. I was excited to see that Mando was sold at my local Costco (Pure Sport only) in a 3 pack for only $25! I bought some last week and have noticed the smell seems "off" and almost like it's old or something. IDK, it's hard to describe but it definitely doesn't smell like the stick I originally got from Mando directly.

Anyone else experience this if they bought it from Costco?

for many many years I've struggled to find a good deodorant that doesn't irritate my pits AND ensures I don't smell like onions if I start sweating...I find that regular deodorants (ones containing aluminum and all that junk) cause the lymph nodes in my pits to swell up. So I go for aluminum-free. As y'all may know, these deo's tend to not work very well cuz I guess aluminum is what helps stop the sweat from coming out or something. I need a deo that ACTUALLY works and has no aluminum if anybody knows a good one!! I've been seeing a lot of the skincare girlies online talk about Saltair, and I love a good trend...if it's worth the hype. Any opinions on that brand specifically? Or if you know of something else that works please let me know. I honestly don't even care about the price at this point I just need something that keeps me smelling good without having my lymph nodes swell up cuz that shit creeps me out. TIA!!!

I'm happy applying Triple Dry cream every night and then non-antiperspirant deodorant in the morning. I mainly use some random designer deos i happen to pick up like ralph lauren gel sticks. The problem is the scent is not long lasting and after a day of work my pits smell stale, for lack of better word. Not sweaty bad, but like the after effects of aluminum antiperspirant.

I would like to find a non-staining deo stick, preferable a cream stick, that lasts the whole day keeping me fresh. Sweat is already blocked by triple dry. Am located in the EU
