Have a wedding to attend next weekend and found a great LBD to wear! YAY! But I have NEVER been able to find a deodorant that doesn't leave white marks - even the ones that say they don't
Has anyone out there found one that really doesn't leave white marks?And still works? If so, please let me know what kind!
TIA
Thanks! Quite a few people have mentioned letting it set a bit before I get dressed. Think I will try that. It is usually part of my "getting dressed for the day" routine.
I DO like to dance and want to be sure I am not stinky, so I do feel the need to wear it. If I didn't dance then I probably could skip it, although I had never really thought about it.
Haven't found one yet..even among the ones that promise no white streaks.
So, I put mine on right after my shower and parade around in my towel for bit and rub my arms back and forth. Then after it has absorbed, that is when I put on my dark colored clothes.
Good luck!
Since you're in a northern state do you have to wear deodorant for this event? I am not a drippy sweating type of person. I can go without showering a couple of days and my pits don't smell. I have found that deodorant can be a habit and not completely needed all the time.
So that's why I asked if you actually have need to wear deodorant every minute of the day. Do you stink after just a few minutes? Do you stink after an hour? Do you smell after a day at the office when the air is turned to 78 and it's hot in your area?
I'd say if you sweat a lot you'd need to apply an antiperspirant but if you don't stink you don't need a deodorant, if you don't stink after just a couple of hours and don't get drippy wet then don't put any on for the wedding.
Be sure to bring your deodorant with you in case you have a deodorant failure. Or you just need to reapply.
Degree makes one that isn't perfect, but is better than others. It has a little black dress on the front.
I use Mitchem stick and roll on and have never had white marks. I do wait a few minutes to give them time to dry before getting dressed.
I use Mitchem gel for men.
Like some others said, I put it on after my shower and I don't dress for a while.
secret makes one that is a clear gel. It's not my favorite, as far as effectiveness goes... But should work just fine for a few hours at a wedding.
Best idea I know - put on antipersperant before bed, or at least a few hours before you get dressed. As long as it's not super hot out, I can put it on before bed and it lasts through the next day.
I have never found one that works either but I do know baby wipes work fairly well to take the marks off your clothes.
It does help to put on the deodorant a few hours before getting dressed. I like to get dressed then put on my make-up. I found if you place a hand towel in your lap it will catch anything that spills. I do the same thing when I drive -- no more coffee spills on my pants and skirts.
I've also had good luck with Dove.
