Current Events > Men's Hygiene: What do you use for deodorant and body wash?

(+) Yeah! (+)

I will admit that I just recently stopped using Axe at age 32. Mostly used it because the wife would buy me those cheap ass kits they put out during Christmas.

Any who, I decided to go with naturally derived (aluminum free) stick deodorant and body wash. Tried out Method and Every Man Jack so far. Method has a stronger smell but doesn't lather as well. Every Man Jack is more subtle and lathers well. Method doesn't make deodorant that I'm aware of.

What do all of you beastly men use? I'm sure there is a few of you out there that use women's hygiene products. I almost bought women's dove over the weekend myself.

Meh, soap is soap, man. It doesn't really matter who it's being marketed too.
I do like Every Man Jack though. I favor the cedarwood. I want to smell like wood or waterfalls or the ocean or something, myself. Not a huge fan of flowers.

That's the scent that I bought. So you don't think all of the weird ass ingredients that are put into some soaps like Axe, Old Spice, Dove, etc. are potentially harmful?

I wash my body exclusively with the condensation from a cold glass of sweet tea in a hot room

for deodorant I rub my underarms with fistfulls of lawn clippings

You're not hardcore until you've bathed in your own piss and shit to ward off potential predators. Git gud.

I change up. I tend to get self conscious if I always smell the same.

Degree Clinical clean scent deodorant

I change up my soap but it's usually Nivea, Irish Spring, or Suave
---

I use Gillette clear gel deodorant. I use to use that white deodorant stuff but I would always get rashes in my armpits.

I do have a can of axe spray but it's mostly for if I won't be home for awhile.
---

Old Spice Fiji for both. I like tropical shit
---

Body wash:

Bath and Body Works or Lush

Deodorant: Just Arrid spray

Body wash I'm not picky.

For deoderant i used to use that old spice one with the bird on it, but I think they discontinued it. Now I use the octopus one.
---

Dove for Men Clean Comfort body wash and deodorant spray. Pretty much swear by it

I buy the other scents sometimes but the Walmart near me always runs out of the ones I like

I do the same. Usually have 2 different kinds on hand so that I can at least alternate every other day.

Lush

They tend to be fairly expensive. How much does your body wash run there? My wife loves their stuff so I might try them sometime if the scent appeals to me.

Almost $30 a bottle. That's why I use it sometimes. It's my weekend relax shower body wash.

Old spice fresh and for cologne, i use d&g

Trying to find a new deodorant (currently using Axe), but my go-to soap is Nivea.

Yikes. I certainly wouldn't use it regularly but maybe buy a bottle when I feel like treating myself to something, lol.

Has anyone tried the brand "Native"? I saw the deodorant at Target but it was $12.99. The body wash is cheaper, which I'd be willing to try.

I've used Old Spice (has to be the white chalky bar) for deodorant my entire life and for body wash I use whatever three in one looks good when I'm buying it.

Lush is beyond good body wash, it makes your skin feel like silk.

It's a treat that I buy every 4 or so months because it lathers up so well that only a little bit will clean your whole body.

deodorant - Dove or Old Spice

body wash - not too picky, I probably prefer buying Dove if I had to pick one. Using the cheap Target generic brand at the moment and it seems fine.

...

body wash: whichever is on sale. old spice or axe.
not too picky

i don't use deoderant but i do clean the pits every shower with wash.

Shea Moisture African Black Soap bar
Verb Ghost shampoo
Shea Moisture Raw Shea Butter Hydrating Body Lotion
I jump around with Degree antiperspirant. Been using women's since I was like 14 cause they smell better (not a fan of the FOR MEN musky dewy whatever smell that they all seem to be going for).
---

Old Spice antiperspirant deodorant

For soap I just use the body washes my wife gets at Bath and Body Works. They smell good and don't dry my skin out like men's soaps tend to do. That scent really only stays on your skin for like an hour at best anyways.
