I spend a lot of money on expensive deodrants - men`s and women`s - my partner says i`m chucking money away coz they all work the same, no difference between one that costs a quid and one that costs four or five quid. I don`t agree. He loves expensive perfumes/aftershaves - but we`ve had this arguement over deodrants from about day one. Would love to know what others think and what they use and why. ( in uk ) Thanks.

I use Mitchum unscented gel, because I'm Italian, and we can get stinky! Mitchum gel is the only one that I've found to work on keeping me odor free. The female designed deodorants do absolutely nothing for me. I am a firm believer in getting what you pay for so if smelling fresh is high on your boyfriends priority list, he should part with a few quid and get the good stuff.

The reason why people changes deodorant so often is because they can't control a chemical rection produced between hormones and a very particular bateria. If no deodorant works for a person it's because they need to control this reaction by eliminating it from the body and the clothes that were exposed; it doesn't matter if they have been washed, they must be treated. Anyway, the best deodorant I believe is SURE in cream, using your finger to apply it, because, again, you can also transmit this reaction to the nozzle of the deodorant, if exposed to the armpit.

Actually i used to use some deoderant a few months ago, Hackett i think it was: costing about £8. Then i did start to think its a bit of a lot of money for a deoderant, so i went for a more usuall brand. Im now using the Radox-minerals (TV advert) deoderant, yes its good but the only negative is it doesnt have the strong purfummy smell that Hackett has, but at the end of the day its an alright deoderant and i think i will continue to use it.
Good Luck on settling your argument lol xoxox

Deoderants definitely vary in effectiveness. If you read the label, the percentage of active ingredients vary and the one's with a higher percentage are no doubt stronger and more effective. The idea is that since it is a chemical you are applying to your pits, it's best to use the lowest percentage that is effective for you.
It's also been well established that if you consistently use the same deorderant it will start to work less well for you, and you need to change even just the brand to get the proper effect again. I usually switch around between two or three brands just to keep the effectiveness working.

I will only use Roll-ons.Dove being my favourite. I think sprays sting and cheap deodrants, spray white powder, leaving the residue on clothes.

I don't think it is all the same. If you don't have a huge problem with odor then you could probably get about anything. I think the best is Secret for woman, but I can't use it. Ban Roll On works really well.

I use dove or intensive care creme. It's not too expensive and it works. CAN NOT use the cheap roll on stuff, it's cra p. You have to spend a little more so you get a brand that works and if you want to smell nice, sorry fella, your woman's right!

Deodorants are not all the same.
I use natural deodorants because the type sold in usual market can have harmful chemicals in them.
There is a rock salt that works pretty well on me, you would most likely have to order online, just search natural+deodorants.

Sure but......
I actually use "Rexona" which is Sure, but branded as it is sold outside the UK
I've got a place I can get hold of it much cheaper than the supermarkets, chemists or other shops.......
Can't pass on where to go for it, as it's for card holders only.
But if you see Rexona brand buy it....... I promise you it is the same, but much much cheaper cos people don't realise it is the same as Sure
