Okay, lovelies - it's another TMI time. I'll just put it out there. I have itchy armpits. (What? Don't act like you've never heard anything like that before....). I have been a Secret Deodorant user for years.
I was especially a fan of their Platinum Conditioning Solid in Botanical. Well, it appears they have changed their formula to this Secret Flawless formula. They say "If you like Platinum, you'll love Flawless". Eh, not so much. Ever since I got this "stick", I swear I look like a chimp scratching at my pits. Not so pretty in the office, let me tell you. And since this is the only thing that has changed in my armpit routine (yeah, I guess you could call it that), it *has* to be this.
So, I turn to you lovelies - can you give me some suggestions as to what would be good to try and not have this problem any more? I am not all up in the "gotta be organic" wagon, but I won't rule it out. (In fact, I have heard good things about "Pit Putty" by Bubble and Bee, whose Vanilla Peppermint Salt Scrub sounds almost good enough to freakin' eat, too). Help a girl out here, plz.

That's why I don't use Secret..makes me itchy!! I used to use it though and to make the itchies go away I would wash with Aveeno soap. I now use Dove and I don't have any problems.

Yeah, I went years with out problems, so this is just damn annoying.I will def have to check out Dove, not too expensive and won't get on my shirts, either. Thanks for the suggestion. Smiling

Ohhh, I had never heard of MBeze, but I am really liking their little sticks. So many scents to choose from, too.And I am hoping to get a Lavilin sample in my gift bag from Shecky's Night Out Thursday. Thanks so much for the rec's. Smiling

Haha, faux - No doubt they will thank me for switching. I picked up some Dove this weekend, since it was cheap and easy to get. I will give it a shot while seeing about trying these other great recs.Thanks for letting me know it works for you, as I'm sensitive, too! Smiling
