One more deodorant that leave white streaks...
Argh... I'm so tired of buying deodorant after deodorant that says it goes on and dries clear and leaves no white streaks, then ending up with white lines on my clothes. I wore a black tank yesterday and looked totally cute, until the end of the day by which time I had white smears on my sides halfway down to my waist... Eeek.
Any suggestions for one that actually does go on and stay clear? I sweat like a crazy person, so have to wear the strong ones.
Thanks!

OMG me too!! I seriously sweat like crazy. I hate it when my shirts gets discolored from the antiperspirant. If anyone knows any home remedies to prevent discoloration, please share!
This brand Miss Oops works well to remove fresh stains on clothes. https://www.missoops.com/products/de...p?product_id=5
I got really fed up last summer and made an appointment to see a dermatologist about it. All they offered was some Rx like CertainDri with about 25% GLY. It' smelled funny. I had to make sure my armpits were dry before applying it or it wouldn't work. Sometimes I would have to use a blow drier to make my pits dry. Do you know how hard it is to do that when your out of the shower! I really wanted my HMO to cover the botox injections, but they said it was cosmetics (which I don't agree at all when your sweating all the time! it's gross & makes me so unhappy. I don't even want to move around or wear colored shirts)
Anyways I purchased a few products from sephora.com, so they gave a sample of the DermaDoctor Total NonScents antiperspirant. From just using the sample for 2 days I can feel the difference. So I gave in & bought it. I have been using it for the past year it works really great. It's a roll on liquid that won't leave white residue. A little goes a long way, make sure its dry before you put on clothes since it's liquid. It helps controls sweat! better than that OTC CertainDri, which is total crap! Look on drugstore.com or sephora.com for some reviews about the product. There is a regular $20 & skin brightening one $28. I like the skin brightening one. It helps with the 5 o'clock shadows! It's expensive, but if it works for you.. it's worth it! Good Luck!

I sweat like crazy too until I discovered Odaban. It's a spray that really really helps! I used to have constant wet armpits, but now I don't have a drop and can wear any kind of deoderant I want or none at all. http://www.odaban.com/ One bottle lasts a good 6 months or more. The longer you use it, the less you need.

Just read the Mitchum comment.
I was going to say Mitchum powder fresh clear gel for women. It take forever to dry but it does not leave white marks.
It was recommended to me by the owner of the Bridal shop where I got my dress for my daughter wedding...black dress...no white marks...it works!!
Does the roll on dry quicker??

I use an "all natural" deodorant (drugstore brand) that comes in a clear stick. It is NOT an anti-perspirant so it contains no aluminum chloride. It won't stop you from sweating (although I find it helps a bit), but it definitely stops you from smelling AND it stays clear! It's unscented too.
The one I use is Life Brand Botanicals Natural Deodorant, sold at Shoppers Drug Mart. There are branded versions of it out there, I just don't remember the names.

I posted this in another forum and both places recommended the Mitchum Power Gel, which is what I currently use. Am I not letting it dry long enough or maybe using too much? Iris, how long does it take to dry when you use it?

Hi.. I finally found the right one.. although it's not cheap.. 18 dollars.. it's Bliss. Sometimes they have it at Nordstom's rack for 7 dollars. It is the best. It's minty.. roll on, and totally clear. It is better than the perscription.. you will not sweat at all.

Just wanted to add that I found a site (lost the link) last night from a celeb, supermodel makeup artist that uses mitchum deodorant on model's faces as primer in during shoots outside in the heat to keep their faces dry and matte.
