Tom Tildrum, I think your “man-card” is safe, buddy!
When I ran out once, I used my wife’s Secret (“Made for a woman, but strong enough for a man”)!
purplehorseshoe. Your post cracked me up till I mentioned it to my wife who told me that because MoM has aluminum silicate in it, that it WOULD make a good deodorant.
I have trouble getting just antiperspirant to work (and I use the unscented Mitchum 48hr stuff), but I’ve gotten results when I use one of those natural salt deodorants beforehand.
I exclusively use a deodorant stone, nowadays. Sure, I still sweat- but I don’t stink, I can easily skip a day or two, and the stone lasts forever. I’ve been using the same one now for over two years, and it’s not appreciably smaller.
Been using them for several years now, and haven’t received any complaints. As noted, they last a very long time, and what I also like is that the stuff goes on very easily. Roll-ons are gummy, sticks are sticky…I keep my stone on the edge of the tub and put it on while my pits are still wet, then let them dry naturally. No muss, no fuss, etc.
I’m sure there are different formulations, but I would advise folks to beware of so-called “unscented” deodorants. Personally, I can smell that God-awful chemical stew a mile away on many people. If forced to choose between them, I would go for good old honest B.O. over that stuff.
Yeah, either wet pits, or you can run the stone under some warm water before applying if your pits are dry. You need some liquid for it to glide on.
Generally found at health food stores. I’ve even seen a kind that emulates the push up stick model in a tube, but then you’re paying for the extra plastic.
The ones I get are big and easy to get a grip on up to the time they ultimately wear down. But that takes a long time.
Okay, next question (deodorant stone): Who figured that shit out?
Quasi pictures caveman walking along, sniffing pits, saying “Holy Jesus yet to come, I sure do stank!”, and finds himself a rock and begins rubbing in into his pits.
EvilTOJ: I like that commercial too! Is that what they call “seamless” filming?
