that hippie stuff doesnt prevent the stank. sometimes i swear i smell worse. i dont bother with the anti perspirant cuz i dont sweat all that much but the BOdorant a definite yes. I've been using Nature's Gate Organics Lemon Verbena and it's ton's more unstanky than the hippie Kiss My Face brand

I went aluminum free about 2 years ago and had your same problem. The only thing I have found that works is the Adidas CottonTech antiperspirant. It has no aluminum, yet it's still an antiperspirant (that works).

You might find that you (and those in close proximity to you) would be more comfortable if you bop down to your local Walgreens and pick up a stick of that...

I agree with CH - the Adidas stuff works great. And smells clean and powdery.

Although I basically apply aluminum chloride directly to my skin :P

I'm glad that we can freely talk about underarm stank here. This is a safe place today.

I had the same experience when I switched to Tom's. It took about a month or so, but my body eventually acclimated to the new product. I just had to reapply every so often with the Tom's.

It's just so much nicer to be Aluminum free.

I eat aluminum foil... is that not recommended?
