Deodorant for younger girls?

[Eviecorn]

I have very sensitive skin and I use Tom's of Maine unscented.  Works great.

I remember the deodorant I used when I first started wearing it was Teen Spirit.  Good grief, that was a long time ago!

LOL Me too! Does that stuff even still exist?

Haha, same here!  I was just going to suggest it.  I, personally, had problems with it occasionally.  It would make me itch something fierce. >.<

I'm going to hop on the Dove boat as it's supposed to be great for sensitive skin.  Best of luck!

I just looked it up, they still make two scents of it, Sweet Strawberry and Pink Crush!  I used Caribbean Cool back in the day, lol.

I would defenitely suggest you find a more natural deodorant without aluminium, which may be linked to breast cancer, alzheimers etc.

However in my experience Tom's of Maine is not effective at all, I've had much more luck with the crystals, but I've yet to find a really great organic deodorant. Here's a link for some other products for anyone interested: http://ecosalon.com/best-organic-deodorants-the-search-is-over/. Please note I haven't tried most of these so can't recommend them as such.

I haven't been using a crystal stone for long but I like it so far!  This is mine:

Thai Crystal Deodorant Stone: www.deodorantstones.com   Just minerals salts- no oils, aluminum, chemicals, or perfumes.

Can't say I've ever heard of a deodorant that was harmful to kids. I'd probably look for one that says it's specifically for sensitive skin, though I'm no expert.

I personally like the ones that have different scents. Ya know, lavender or roses or something like that. :>
The one I use currently is called "truth or pear."

The chemical cocktails in deodorants and other products are potentially harmful to all of us, not to mention the environment..

I could have swoooorn I've seen deodorant (like a common brand) with a "for kids" after the title in the store...but it's been awhile since I've had to restock my deodorant supply so I might just be inadvertantly making that up, lol.

My son (who is 9) needs deodorant and he wants to be like Dad and Grandpa. SO he uses Old Spice. That will be stopping now that I've read the livestrong article posted by Miss Violet. I'll hit up the store tomorrow for Alba or Toms!

Aww heck yes, just give lil Junior some Old Spice.
As somebody who dated an individual who uses Old Spice I can confirm its greatness.

It explains why all the girls in school want to be his girlfriend now.

I will NEVER EVER EVER let him use Axe, though. We had a guy come into my work and he bathed in Axe, then stood there in the spray of Axe for an hour. The ENTIRE store smelled like him. T_T I was gagging!!

Tom's of Main has no aluminum salts in it. It's not an antiperspirant, just a deodorant and it works great! I use it and while I'll still sweat there's really no stinky BO to go with it. I just don't like the idea of shutting down my sweat glands.

I'm really the same way?? Like sweating is such a natural thing and it keeps us cool. You'd think antiperspirants would increase your chances of overheating if they don't let you sweat. But, again, I'm no expert.

This is what I started using as well. It was retro with hippy flowers all over it. Didn't help Nirvana's smells like teen spirit was big. ha ha I thought it was ironic, a song about MY deodorant?!

ha ha it had nice fruit scents and was very mild.
