    Default Deodorant stains?

    Help! All of a sudden, I'm getting white marks on the armpit areas of my favorite black dress! They're not so bad just walking around the club, but on stage, they glow horribly in the blacklight.

    I've always used Mitchum plain men's clear gel antiperspirant to avoid this exact thing (and because it smells extremely neutral, so it mixes with any scent I might wear in or out of work), but it's recently no longer working. I bought some Secret gel stuff, and that's not helping, either!

    I don't *think* I'm sweating any more than I usually do. I do laundry frequently, and have taken to washing my black stuff after every shift I use it, because of this. What do I do? Is there some other antiperspirant I'm not aware of that doesn't go white on clothes? I can't not wear antiperspirant, I sweat too much without it at work.

    I'm at a loss.

    Mitchum is what I was using, and it started leaving marks. Guess I'm screwed, then.
    Thanks for the link!

    Yeah, after reading the article it sounded as if you were already using the right product. It did mention that Mitchum made a both a women's and a men's product, and you said you were using the men's. Perhaps try the other. Best of luck!
