Great alternative to aluminum based antiperspirants

I always thought I was just an unusually sweaty woman with unusually smelly armpits. I've tried so many drugstore antiperspirants with aluminum chlorohydrate or something similar. They end up staining all of my clothes, causing a constant stench in my shirts, and seeming to stop working after a few weeks or months. I know how aluminum complexes work, and as I thought about it, I realized that clogging my sweat glands and pores may actually be counterproductive and can trap stink-causing bacteria that contribute to odor. Once in the shower, after thoroughly washing my skin, I pinched and squeezed the skin in the armpit - and a lot of small white pimples appeared. I squeezed a little more and the white stuff came out. I noticed that it smelled like highly concentrated bad body odor. I pumped out the old, hardened antiperspirant clogging my glands and pores, all the sweat, sebum, and happily breeding bacteria. And there have been many after decades of using antiperspirants. I decided to stop using the antiperspirant and see if the smell and excessive sweating problem went away as the smell in my armpits didn't even respond to the "prescription" antiperspirant. also an antiperspirant. I found Toms and Jason deodorants at Whole Foods. They didn't work for odor control. I saw that this Bali Secrets brand got good reviews so I ordered it even though it's expensive. I am very happy with it! It smells great and controls my sweat odor all day long - even after strenuous exercise like a long exercise bike ride or a tough 7 mile run. Also, I feel like I'm not as sweaty and slimy under my armpits. Let's see if this positive trend continues into midsummer. In the meantime, I'll try some other brands that got good reviews here. I really like this sandalwood scented product and will probably order again or maybe try a different scent. Way to get rid of antiperspirants that stain clothes and clog pores and eventually stop working - don't give your body antiperspirant for about a week (rub your armpits vigorously regularly to get rid of antiperspirant residue in your pores) and start with the Using something like Secrets of Bali. I think you will be pleasantly surprised.
