    So if anyone didn’t know this, antiperspirant can have a rebound effect that makes you sweat more over time. And it is also responsible for the crusty stains on your t-shirt armpits. Regular deodorant won’t do that.

    When I switched to just regular deodorant my armpits stopped sweating so much after a few weeks, and then it was no longer an issue. And no more ruined shirts. Wish I had known this sooner in life.

      What’s a regular deodorant? Also are there any solutions that don’t involve the plastic container for it, I’m already on solid soap and shampoo for years but my deo still produces plastic waste.

        It won’t say antiperspirant on the label, it will just say deodorant, which means it doesn’t have any of the chemicals or metals they use to block your pores (or however it works, I’m not an antiperspirantologist)
