I've switched from traditional bar deodorants to the sprays.. I've found that the spray ones don't cause the pores to clog as bad.

i have some severe open wounds in my armpits and its a resolute NO. personally any kind of deodorant put directly on my skin is super irritating. i do my best to use perfume and spray deodorants to reduce body odor whenever i have to, but only on the outer layers of clothing im wearing.

I don’t wear deodorant on my days off from work. On the days I do work, I wear unscented Toms.
