Boob DeodorantThey were talking about this on the radio this morning. I am barely a B so I don't have the need for this but I find it funny. "SWOOB"

It might be funny, but one time, many years ago I read on the 2peas board about using deodorant under your boobs when it was hot out. I thought it was kind of strange but decided to try it, it actually worked. So when a friend was complaining about "swoob", I told her you might think I'm crazy but I read this at 2peas and damn if it doesn't work  . She tried it, and thanked me! |

Forget deodorant. Antipersperant is what's needed. For me, at least, it's not an issue of odor but one of sticky discomfort.

I , too, heard about using antiperspirant/deodorant under the breasts at 2peas first.
It works.
And here's real TMI for ya:
If you are one of the lucky women who have had a c-section or for any other reason have a belly that presses against other skin and gets irritated, antiperspirant/deodorant works for that too.

I could have used it before my breast reduction...I was a G. The girls were always sweaty!

Yep Antiperspirant is a must have when it's hot. Otherwise you get pain and chafing and not really what you want on your boobs.

Before I go to a wedding in the summer, I put antiperspirant anywhere that I don't want to sweat. I'm a DD/DDD  In fact, my last bride was wearing a mermaid dress on a hot day. I told her to put some antiperspirant between her legs and it fixed her hot/sweaty/chafed problem. Just don't do this every single day of your life, you NEED to sweat, I don't think it's good for you to do it all the time. |

I've tried putting on a dusting of powder, but it just absorbs the moisture...wait, it is more than moisture...the rivulets of sweat and turns into powder pancakes that are crunchy and fall out onto your clothing at the worst possible times. Plus, I only had baby powder once and I could smell it all day. It didn't blend well with my perfume scent. I've also tried underarm antiperspirant and it works better than powder. I was going to look for that Body Glide that a few peas had mentioned. I don't think it's a made up issue. When you have a bit of boobage, add summer heat = pancakes. But like Dalai Mama says, odor isn't an issue. At least not for me. My sister's was so bad with her mega boobs that she got yeast infections all the time from all that dampness. She ended up getting a pretty radical reduction. She went from never being able to button a blouse to a size B. I will be looking into this stuff. |

What about the scent testers they showed in the article? How would you like to have that job. I hope it pays well.

My dermatologist recommend Zasorb powder for under the boob sweating. It's more absorbent than baby powder and keeps away any potential yeast type infections.

Some girl called in to the radio show and said she used to use deodorant on the backs of her knees. She played soccer and didn't want to have sweat on the backs of her knees! Really?

One summer I managed to get heat rash under my boobs and it was horrible...sooooo itchy! After it cleared up I started putting a liberal dose of gold bond powder under them after getting out of the shower. It worked pretty well for me and I didn't wind up with weird powder/sweat debris underneath. Now that I am living somewhere where the summer average high is less than 70 degrees, it's no longer necessary.
And back of knee sweat? I'm not understanding this. Did she think there would be the same kind of odor as from underarm sweat?

Another problem that I didn't know existed until I came on the Board.

I have NO idea why anyone would think that the knee sweat would be a problem. She just stated that she didn't want to sweat on the back of her knees. I really have no freakin' idea why this should be an issue. Hell for that reason, she should have taken a bath in it to coat her whole body.

You sweat more at your body creases. I don't like the dampness in my elbow creases when I run. It's not stinky; it just bugs me. Someone who runs and kicks in soccer could have the same issue with the sweat behind her knees. |

I will try it, i hate smelly "swoobs" especially now in the summer.
I wish some one had told me about this earlier.

Knee sweat drives me nuts, too. I hate sweating behind the knees more than any other place because it hurts! If I've recently shaved, which is just about daily in the summer, and I have sweaty knees (or back of the knee), it stings and gets really irritated.

I may sound crazy but the only thing that concerns me about that is the aluminum content in deodorant/antiperspirant may be dangerous. I've read that there are some who believe the aluminum is what's causing some of the breast cancer out there. I would be afraid of exposing the rest of my breasts to it (I sweat under there pretty much all year round) I use Gold Bond Baby Powder and its wonderful. It doesn't cake up at all.

I learned about this when I was pregnant with my first. I live in an area where summer time is hot and while pregnant it is miserably hot. I got the tip from a little old african-american lady who, despite the 98 degree, 90 percent humidity level looked as cool as a cucumber. I looked liked a sweaty beach ball sized mess. She took pity on me and gave me several tips-including a swipe of deodorant under the boobs.

I use some on my thighs if I'm wearing a dress in the summer. I recently got some homemade deodorant in a swap that uses coconut oil, baking soda and arrowroot powder. That stuff is freakin' genius and works really well.
