I have just ordered a deodorant stone & so far, it is working BRILLIANTLY!  You rub it onto damp skin after washing & it's incredible - I have been finding that even 15 minutes after a shower, I can smell my underarms, but now I can go all day with not a single whiff!  I thought I might just be going through a 'less smelly' phase, so after a few days, I switched back to my usual roll-on and the smell came straight back!

I've read about stones to have in the kitchen which are supposed to remove fish smells etc., is that similar?

[Dorothy]

   I hope not!!!

It's a kind of natural mineral salt that works by stopping 'bad bacteria' forming in your sweat (this is what makes it smell).  At least, that's what I understood from the article I read on it!  I read a couple of reviews on various sites and a lot of them mentioned that their stone lasted a couple of years, so I reckon it's worth the bigger outlay at the start (especially as it seems to be working, unlike the other deodorants I have tried!)  If you search for 'deodorant stone' or 'natural mineral deodorant' you should find some.  I got mine from ethical superstore, but I know a lot of different places do it

Menopausal  .. whiffy.  Not nasty.  But I can smell it ........... <lifts armpit>

Shave fanny shave armpits keep tidy down there and whiff will go xxxxx

Perspiration is odourless.  A certain bacteria likes it which causes the smell  .

Himself would like me to shave all over  but I resist

I whiff again  - it's probably the stress of the time of year 

[babyjane]

I whiff because I haven't had a shower and had a temperature last night, but no one here to smell me so doesn't matter

yay great thread...

I hate that my cleavage smells like trucker BO...I wonder if I will ever smell like myself again!

Himself says that he can't notice any difference: so does that mean that I've always been smelly

Oh no! 

Just been watching some Bradley Walsh giggle videos from the Chase, thanks to this thread...so funny has been making me laugh out loud with tears in my eyes ("Contestant breaks chair then farts!" and "Dick Tingeler")

I have a little theory, as in pregnancy when the hormones were crazy the last time, heightened sense of smell etc...maybe it's a hormonal shift in niff perception...I'd like to think so...

[linz57]

I think hormones do play a part because my sweat smelled vaguely like a hamsters cage when I first started hrt. Thank god it went after the first few months!
Bradley Walsh, he is such s tonic bless him. I only have to see his face crack into a grin and notice that mischievous twinkle in his eye and I'm off chuckling. I haven't seen the broken chair video, it sounds my kind of thing haha.

Bradley has released a CD in time for C.mas …..
