I forgot to say earlier what I use. Oops.

I use anti-persperant, but just because it is a little less watery than the other two options. I still sweat through it...

I use both. No particular preferences and they seem to work fine. I also lack any sort of brand loyalty when it comes to this department.

Please tell me you guys wash your armpits with soap instead >_>

The three products doesn't actually prevent the sweaty smells--it just provides a stronger, more pleasant scent to mask the nastiness. That being said, I use regular deodorant juuust in case. Like when I'm waiting for the results of my final. Or when the team I'm rooting for is just barely losing and it's 2 minutes left on the clock. Or when my girlfriend decides to try something on me to make things awkward.

Anti-Persperant isn't very good at all, though. It's preventing a part of your body from perspiring.

Antiperspirant seems to be the best. Not only will it stop, or slow, the amount you sweat under the arms, they usually have some sort of sent. I could see the antiperspirant being coupled with a body spray, perfume, or cologne. The body spray for more of an everyday use and the perfume or cologne for special occasions. I couldn't see using body spray only as an alternative to antiperspirant or deodorant.

I just use Febrese!

THAT'S GROSS.

Anyway I use Anti-Persperant but I'd call it deoderant. I mean, seriously. Who says the full thing?

Antiperspirant stops or reduces sweating (perspiration) in the areas applied. They also usually have a sent. Deodorant does nothing to stop, or reduce, sweating. Deodorant only has a nice scent or deodorizes.

Honestly, washing your pits is a helluva lot better than just masking the scent with another scent. And if you're just putting deodorant on, then THAT is gross. If you're criticizing that is.

I believe he was talking about the video. Though if he wasn't, then meh. Yes, I do wash my armpits with soap. What reason is there not to?
