What is with this Whole Body Deodorant trend?

A product looking for a problem, if you ask me.

You obviously don't understand, OP.

It's for fat folds and gunts.

If you have boobs or a pendiculum .

Capitalism.

For some people, underarm deodorant is not enough. People who don't wash their ass.

It’s for sweaty under boob and belly overhang, chafing thighs. . People have been using sprays and powders for this purpose forever but not it’s in safer, easier to apply form. It has nothing to do with a dirty ass.

Gen Z needs it. They use it instead of bathing.

From your bits to your...

People are getting fatter and the planet is getting warmer.

Mando works great preventing that end of the day ball stank. I have some big old low hangers and it's been helpful.

It is like the separate bottle of laundry fragrance crystals they are pushing. Another separate product preying on our insecurity. Actually, since people don’t interact anymore, does it matter?

It keeps you dry too. I get sweaty balls and use a gold bond spray. It’s the same thing,

😂 😂 right OP.

It’s cause all these Ozempics have that saggy skin that smells.

I can't wait for hair deodorant

I can't imagine having 'fold' sweat and instead of thinking, I need to do something about this weight, instead think - oh I just need body deodorant!

Isn't it going to ruin your clothes?

I tried Mando on my armpits. It worked maybe 3 hours and I got a rash to boot.

Honestly, all you really need is good deodorant soap. If you stink that much, good old fashioned Dial or that persimmon soap will help.

I don't think whole body deodorant is going to be able to mask the smell of a skin fold yeast infection.

Underboobs need deodorant??? I'm a woman and I can't imagine such a thing. 🤢

Men's crotches can get an odor at the end of the day no matter your size. A bit of deodorant down there also gives me more confidence for a surprising blow job from my husband.

There is this really interesting thing called soap. I prefer using that instead.

I won't read anyone to filth for trying to smell better.

R21 - you could also just use a swipe with a washcloth?

Putting an odor on something funky doesn't erase the bad odor. It just masks it - but not completely.

It's like spraying lemon air spray in a bathroom - I still smell ass and shit, but now it's lemony ass and shit.

It helps prevents the odor and sweating in the first place R24.

I rarely use any deodorant unless I have a meeting or it’s very hot out. I shower at least once a day. If I skip a shower for any reason yes I am positively gamey and stink but showering regularly and using a good soap is enough for me.

After I poo, I wipe dry with tp a couple times, then fold wet wipe and wipe from top of crack all the way down on each side of fold, then take a couple squares of tp folded and apply solid deodorant to one side and stick it to my butthole, dress, and walk around like that all day or until it falls off.

R24 Read up before you chime in, doll.

Mando is a deodorant that prevents body odor from forming by stopping bacteria from digesting sweat:

Active ingredient Mando contains mandelic acid, a mild alpha-hydroxy acid that disables the bacteria that causes body odor. pH optimized

Mando's pH is optimized to help skin prevent odor reactions.

Clinically proven

Mando's Smooth Solid Stick and Invisible Cream have been clinically proven to control odor for up to 72 hours.

Safe

Mando is doctor developed and safe for external use. It's free of aluminum, baking soda, blue or green dyes, and parabens.

Water based

Mando is water based so it rubs on clean and washes out of clothes without leaving stains.

Mando is a preodorant, not an antiperspirant or deodorant. It's not a sweat-control product, but it can help disrupt bacteria that can cause odor and skin issues.

Or people could shower more than once a day....at least I hope they do it once a day. I shower in the morning, I shower after the gym and I usually take a quick shower before bed.

You bought stock in Mando^^^

I wish I had stock.

Did anyone see that Lume commercial where she spoke of Mother’s perineum cleansing habits? Who does this?

Welcome to DL, Mando PR Team!

It dies seem really unnecessary

So this is supposed to replace baby powder or gold bond? I've never used either.

Shouldn't these sticks be HUGE? If you're going to use it all over, that shit would be gone in 2 weeks.

I get the shower and use soap. Works wonders..

R5 nailed it.

It's for the morbidly obese, isn't it? Huge market... a simply massive demographic.

Showers and soap works the best.

If you’ve never worked in a nursing/retirement/memory impaired/dementia-related/psyche ward/VA hospital, then you don’t get to judge .

[quote]It helps prevents the odor and sweating in the first place

Anti-perspirants cause cancer.

Deodorant isn’t as bad though.

If only the Ingalls could have had this on the prairie

It started with that obnoxious blonde bragging how she is mother of ten children , an obgyn and in her spare time has created this oh so unique deodorant that can be used for “ lady bits” etc.

So everyone jumped on the odor bandwagon ….

Deodorant on female organs doesn’t sound healthy.

Take a bath

It's just another way to fool stupid Americans into shelling out huge sums of money on products that cost pennies to make.

It didn't work. My pussy stinks even worse with Lume.

Capitalizing on the morbid obesity trend. The ads are fucking disgusting and should be banned by the FCC.

All of the whole body deodorant commercials featuring women place emphasis on being able to use it everywhere. EVERYWHERE!

We all know they mean "you can use it on your foul pussy" without saying that part out loud.

The "72-hour" protection part gets me, too. Who the hell would go 3 days without bathing and think, "Oh, I don't need to because I Lume'd my pussy and ass crack the other day, so I'm still fresh as a daisy?" Gross.

Shannon Klingman is laughing all the way to the bank.

I tried using one of these to get in deep.

No effect.

Most people do not scrub their anal area properly, and even more people never clean their naval.

As much as Dataloungers complain about gunts and smelly pussies, I must wonder how a thread about the cause of this trend reached 52 replies. Why are you surprised people worry about how they smell down there?

Lume' suppositories for those extra hard to reach places

Their soap is 20 dollars a bar. You can get other acidic soap on amazon for 3-5 dollars.

Lots of deodorants have "48 hour protection" or "72 hour protection" on the packaging. I always think "what kind of a disgusting pig are you that you go two or three days without bathing?"

Just a corporation trying to sell you shit you don’t need because they heard younger people are gross and shower a couple times a week.

The catchphrase “from your pits to your toes!” is enough to make me vomit.

R56 it happens more than your pig brain will ever know

I haven’t used a deodorant in 30 years. It always broke my skin and I hated the smell.

Shower regularly and eat a healthy diet and there’s no problem. I don’t drink or smoke either.

Mando uses a technology different from traditional deodorants. They use acid to stop the bacteria from interacting with your body to produce odour.

Just insert a dryer sheet into your rectum and you'll be fresh as a daisy

Wearing smells from laboratories, facing a dying nation.

Mando and Lume are the same company - Mando came out when they saw Lume wasn't selling to men.

r59 you have a gross energy.

Better question is who is so nasty that they can't have a proper shower rather than spread lumi over their dirty ass

People are just nasty.

When that "hearty" Shannon woman began her unpleasantly descriptive commercials, TheDataLounge was right there. However, posts about her dubious endeavours are more likely to be found in general threads about television commercials.

Peoples be stankin'.

Body spray? Wash your pussy you dirty filthy whore!

I hate commercials, but I love Tubi, and Tubi doesn't have an ad-free tier. For some reason, the algorithm has been showing me a lot of whole-body deodorant commercials. I'm not sure what the fine people at Tubi are trying to tell me, but I do not stink. I can assure you.

I have fat folds (moobs). I sweat. But the sweat on my body, particularly on my torso, does not have a strong odor. My chest isn't my underarm. This is bullshit cooked up on Madison Ave. and anyone falling for it is a fool.

Salicylic and glycolic acid also work. I started using a 2% BHA toner under the arms and it works better than any commercial deodorant. I can't speak to other sensitive areas, though.

If you swipe on Amlactin, a moisturizer that contains lactic acid, after showering while your skin is still damp, you're done. I get mine at Costco but Amazon has cheaper versions of the same thing.

Is body odor a side effect of some of the medications whose commercials advise us to "tell your doctor about?"

I notice that more than a few commercials caution about irritation in the perineal area; is (malodorous) rectal leakage a common by-product among these drugs?

My armpits suddenly stopped stinking a few years ago. I don’t even need deodorant on them anymore.

As far as I know. I am not an odorless Korean (lucky bastards) so I should stink.

I had intimate relations with a nice young Korean man many years ago and he had zero odor, even after 2 hours of vigorous intercourse

Have you noticed how, ahem, large the people in the ads for it tend to be.

THAT is your answer.

R21, that sounds like it would smell like a chemical waste site.

If I was aware that my balls stank, I’m pretty sure I’d take a shower with a bar of soap.

Could it be all the probiotics in the kimchi?

Really, R77? With your stanky pussy?

The kimchi causes that terrible, vicious breath, that’s for sure.

[quote]Did anyone see that Lume commercial where she spoke of Mother’s perineum cleansing habits? Who does this?

Taint normal, that.

I have a theory it’s the generation socialized online that can’t get past the idea that humans aren’t naturally perfumed.

I will never complain about people taking extra precautions not to offend me with their body odor. I stay away from B.O. Stink. Stank. Stunk.

To be honest, if your cock stinks by the end of the day instead of just smelling manly and musky, then you are not cleaning it properly. I am not a smell person, but the smell of my own balls at the end of the day turns me on - which is so odd because nothing about me turns me on.

Well, R86, at least you have that.

[discreet knowing glance at everyone else]

My neck, my back lick my stinky pussy and my crack!

I would definitely like to see their market research on this. Who's buying it? I suspect it's Gen Z because they don't even like using bars of soap and are suckers for overengineered products.

Classic marketing and advertising. Creating a need where there was no need before.

Reminds me of when I was a kid and all the laundry detergent brands advertised "sudsing action" and how the more suds there were in the washing machine, the cleaner your clothes got. Then it turns out too many suds clogged the drains and pipes, so all the products were re-advertised as "low sudsing" for cleaner clothes.

I shower in the morning and in the evening. If I get sweaty at the gym, I'll shower there, too. Lots of soap.

I haven't bought shampoo in forty years. Whichever soap is available, liquid or solid, works for me. I haven't had scalp problems or dry hair with so much usage. Maybe it's just genetics. I do soap up my genetically-driven huge bush every time. I know I've gotten guys hard when they watch me do this.

R92 I have a friend who does the same. I think we are manipulated into believing that we need a different cleanser for everything. I am an easy target. Ashamed to admit, I have one body wash for my body, a facial cleanser and a special body wash just for my crotch and ass. I'm ridiculous but I do have overly sensitive skin. I'm not a "products" gay usually. Nothing I buy is pricey and I never use cosmetics or expensive moisturizers or creams. But I still feel like an idiot spending money for three shower soaps.

- Delicate Hot House Flower

Stinky gunts didn't exist 40 years ago.

I use bar soap on my pits, bush, and hole, shower gel everywhere else. No deo in the winter

I don't know if many DLers have noticed since many of them are still wearing their size 32 jeans and short shorts from the 70s and 80s, but a lot of clothes now are not made from 100% natural materials. Even if it's a cotton fabric, there's spandex in a lot of cotton, or lycra or polyester fabrics, or a rayon blend. Workout wear is made of this stuff as are leggings. A lot of jeans even have stretch in them. Not just for large folk, as y'all love to point out, this is everyone. Guess what gets trapped in lycra, polyester, and spandex? Sweat and the bacteria that grows there. Shapewear (usually worn by women, of a lot of sizes) also is made of these fabrics. So yes, I welcome LUME or Mando. Keeps the manmade fabric stank away. I also like using Lysol laundry sanitizer for my workout clothes.
