While shopping on Amazon for my usual old spice bearglove smelling system, I’ve gotten burned with what I’m getting. I want the blue stuff and I keep getting this white stuff. I don’t care if they took the aluminum off, I’m not willing to try that again. Last time I tried it my armpits got extremely irritated. I’m not a sissyfus type of person, but hey if someone was poking you in the armpits that would hurt.
So here I am thinking…hmm deodorant is the blue stuff! Antiperspirant is the white stuff. But no. Now there seems no difference. So does anyone have a good aroma deodorant that not white irritation based for me to try from Amazon?
Just a thought, if you leave the house to buy things, you can ensure you’re getting the things you actually want
LOL. No way Jose! I like to just go to work and never have to risk my life at Walmart lol. Plus you know, it’s deodorant so they gotta lock it for some reason.
Other stores than Walmart would sell Old Spice deodorant.
Walmart locks up items that are prone to theft in the area. Different things will be locked up in different Walmart’s, because different areas have different rates of theft for different things.
Deodorant has been stolen a lot in your area if they’ve locked it up.
Deoodorant is the gift you give to those around you. So, if someone needs deodorant so bad that they need to steal it…I’m thinking you should just let them have it.
I could not agree more… Ok I agree even morer now.
Not everyone has the ability or capability to leave their home.
Too much of that stretching nonsense, and you can’t fit out your door no matter how lot you try to stoop.
Agreed in some cases, but I haven’t been able to find the classic original formula Old Spice in stores for years. Going to stores results in a lot of wasted time and gas sometimes.
Make sure you get the right burn cream when you are out!!
It’s not a burn if someone has limited mobility and can’t “just leave the house”
It was a funny comment. If you have limited mobility and can’t just leave the house, and I am nearby, I would be happy to help you out. Not gonna dox myself in public but lets start with a general area, central Tx. PM me on here.
Presuming edge cases is dumb.
THANK YOU
I’m just happy to know others acknowledge that bearglove (and wolfthorne) are the best smelling wildly available deodorants. White is antiperspirant, blue is still just deodorant.
Wolfthorne is the only deodorant I’ve tried that I actually like the smell of (vs just tolerating it)
If they could figure out a way to make their antiperspirant in the same consistency as the deodorant that would be amazing. Hate the white chalky feeling shit
I miss Hawkridge. It was my jam and they killed it.
Pretty sure the white stuff is antiperspirant while the blue is just deodorant. Most scents have both kinds and the label should say which is which. I don’t sweat much myself so the antiperspirant def iritated me years ago when I bought the wrong kind.
The antiperspirant is so damn sticky it almost abrades my skin just trying to scrap some onto my pit
I’d be hesitant to buy anything of the sort off Amazon due to the higher possiblity of fake products. I checked target.com, and I think this is the blue gel, but there’s a handful of reviewers noting burns also.
https://www.target.com/p/old-spice-wild-collection-bearglove-deodorant-3oz/-/A-14898298#lnk=sametabI’m not sure if it’s consistent but at least for the pure sport flavor, aluminum free = blue gel deodorant, otherwise it’s the white chalky antiperspirant
“flavor” lol
Would you call it aroma? Or smell.
I would call it scent.
One might even say your search was, Sisyphean…
what exactly does OP think he meant by “sissyfus”
sissy (more polite term for pussy)
what would that have to do with irritation from aluminum-based deodorant? Is he saying that “sissies” - “fus” (???) are complainers? That’s a new one, to me, I thought the term was mostly just used to describe men who were perceived as feminine in some stupid way… unless OP is trying to suggest that complaining is femme…
I think OP just meant that he’s strong as an ox if oxen…oxen were the size of a human person. But good question. What exactly is a sisifus or whatever I typed there. Did it actually mean feminine men? Or more like really bitchy men who complain too much. Does bitchy mean people who complain too much? Should I have just said hey I never complain too much but this armpit rash is crazy? Does that mean the rash was decently incoherent? Do coherent rashes burn like lasers? Can you use a coherent rash to measure the Doppler effect in smelly armpits? What’s the speed of smell indeed. I don’t know. I just will have to figure it out eventually.
This has no bearing on anything said but I thought this vandalism bing/DDG picked up was funny:
Actual article:
I got lucky on the misspelling 😂.
I am assuming OP once heard the name “Sisyphus” and made a strange assumption about what he thought it meant and how he thought it was spelled.
edit: oh, I’m replying to OP… that explains why it doesn’t make any sense…
It’s a double entedre. A sissyfus is someone who complains about lots of things. Given such behavior is a choice, and makes life harder, they are also actively pushing the same boulder up the same hill.
I don’t believe that’s what OP intended.
This is likely due to one of two things.
- Amazon is bucketing deodorant and antiperspirant + deodorant in the same spot so it’s random what you get.
- A retailer mislabeled their stock and it got put in the wrong bin, so people get wrong products until all that stock is gone. Amazon comingles products so changing the seller won’t help.
- The picker grabbed the wrong item. This probably isn’t the case.

Based on what I’ve been seeing what you want to look for specifically is the solid red lid, that seems to be the best indicator that it’s the blue gel type deodorant, whereas the clear lid seems to indicate that it’s the white antiperspirant type.
Isn’t the blue kind the gel stuff? The white is the “solid” kind.
Yup, but how do I make sure what I get is the blue gel stuff?
Time travel. Buy the deodorant, check its color. If it’s no good, undo a repeat with a different seller.
Duh.
Deodorant is blue, deodorant + antiperspirant is white in the store. It’s also all aluminum free now which sucks. I miss the aluminum deodorant gel.
While it might have been more effective, absorbed aluminium is linked to Alzheimer’s and other brain diseases.
And it stains clothes
A quick Google shows this to be false. Evidence is “inconclusive”
