   Due to the insane hot flashes I have been experiencing for the past six months, I have been on an antiperspirant search for The One and I have finally found my hg with this product. It’s not perfect but it’s the closest I’ve found and it leaves all the others I’ve tried in the dust. So what’s so great about it, and how could it be even better?

   Pros (in order of importance to me):
   – Scent: I am VERY picky about scents because it’s important to me that my perfume is what people smell when they hug me, not my deodorant. I can’t stand 99.999% of the deodorant scents out there because they tend to be powdery and reminiscent of air freshener in public restrooms, plus they tend to be overpowering/lingering. This one is fairly mellow, plus it’s coconut which happens to be one of my favorite scents.- Price: It’s not the cheapest out there, but it’s around $4.50 USD and lasts for several months so well worth it.
   – Power: It works! It’s not bulletproof but close enough. This contains aluminum which is a bummer but I’ve learned that without it, I reek and have wet pits so in this case, I’m willing to live on the edge.
   – Non-irritating: Doesn’t make me red, bumpy or itchy – enough said.
   – No white marks!! My all-black wardrobe is safe.
   – Price: At around $4.50 USD, it’s not the cheapest but it lasts a few months so it’s worth it to me.
   – Availability: I get it on Amazon so I consider that to be easy to find (though I have never found it at a chain drugstore or grocery)

   Room for improvement:
   – Availability: Please get this product into grocery/drugstores pronto! The reason this matters is that I need to make sure it builds a following to avoid being discontinued like all of my other favorite products. For now, I’m stocking up.
   – Scent: Please tone down the flowery/powdery background scent even more – it just cheapens it and keeps it from being perfect.

   Overall I highly recommend giving this one a try if you’re sensitive and sweaty, and open to products that contain aluminum.

   Update: 11/17/19: Still my HG, no need to try any other deodorant.

   This deodorant is extraordinary!

   I recently ran out of my long time favorite, Secret, and had to use my husband’s Dove deodorant. I was impressed at how well it worked by the end of the day after a grueling summer workout (I am usually drenched and stinky after) and decided to see what Dove had available for women.

   I picked this up and immediately loved the packaging and the smell of the entire line, it was hard to choose. I have to say, this is THE best deodorant I have EVER used. It glides on like silk, doesn’t ball up, has a light, refreshing smell, keeps me dry and smelling amazing!! Run, don’t walk!

   Just like other Dove skin care products, this deodarant feels soft on the skin. I really like the subtle scent, gentle feel, but great performance. I’m at the dreaded age where I’ve been dealing with hot flashes and night sweats and this deodarant keeps me quite fresh despite the hormonal roller-coaster I’m on. It’s good to know that this has you covered when you are dealing with uncontrollable body temperature fluctuations. I have always used Secret, and still purchase it but this is my go-to as of late and based on my experience give this a thumbs up recommendation.

   Finally Dove has made a scent that is light and not overpowering. All other ones are heavily scented and the fragrance free has a weird after smell. The coconut is the best light scent available. My backup is the dove invisible solid in fresh. The coconut is definitely more pleasant. It seems to end a little faster than Dove other lines due to it’s creamy texture. I overlook this since it leaves my skin softer and it smells so good!

   Update: I will use this in the winter only since its not as effective in hot weather as my regular Dove invisible solid fresh deodorant.

   Pros:
   Best light scent
   goes on smooth
   skin feels soft
   works well

   Cons: It ends faster than dove other lines
   Not as effective in hot weather as other Dove fresh line.

   This is from the new line of Dove anti-perspirant deodorants called Advanced Care. I was not able to find it in a store, but apparently some Walgreens and Walmarts carry it. Although I would have preferred to smell it first, they did have it at drugstore.com, do I bought it.

   The packaging is updated to be more rectangular, and the cost is more expensive than previous formulas, costing, $5.99 for 2.6 ounces. This deodorant is super silky, and almost feels wet, when applying. For me, the underarm area is not an area that needs moisture, so I would prefer it if it wasn’t so “moist”. It does dry a bit after a few minutes, and that “wet” feeling goes away. This does leave a few white marks, like I found with the other Dove deodorants. Odor and wetness protection is okay, but I find I need a second application if I exercise or if it’s warm out.

   As for the scent, it is supposed to be coconut with light jasmine notes. When you smell it in the package, you could smell both the coconut and jasmine (in an artificial way), but after applying, I just smell the jasmine. I catch whiffs of it throughout the day, too, though it’s not nearly as strongly scented as Secret or Degree. Not crazy about the scent, I was hoping for something more coconut. The original clean scent is still my favorite, no new ones have even come close to smelling as good as that one to me. Overall, pretty disappointing and I doubt I would buy this one again.
