BO

[lizzybennet]

I decided to take the challenge. I bought Secret Platinum deodorant, as it has a 24-hour odor protection guarantee.

So, after a few days it became clear that my sweat glands were more formidable than the deodorant. The challenge was defeated. I now have the option of calling a 1-800 number to get a full refund. But how do I call someone and say "My BO is so strong that your puny, "platinum" strength, strong enough for a man deodorant can't touch it." It is a hollow victory, I can assure you.

I finally worked up the nerve and called the number this morning. Yay! It was an automated system. I'm going to get my refund and I didn't have to talk to a real person :)

And, just so you don't think I am freakishly sweaty and stinky, all my sisters have this same problems. We sometimes consult with each other to see what type of deodorant we are all using, trying to find the "one" that can defeat the problem. I like Arrid XX best, although it is a guys deodorant.

Aren't you glad you know all this about me now? We've just grown closer :)

I've never found a deodorant that lives up to the claims on the can, either:)
