Strong Enough For A Man

Secret and Dove Deodorants

I bought a new deodorant this week: Dove Ultimate Go Fresh Energizing with Grapefruit and Lemongrass.

I know, it sounds like an energy drink.

It is also the most easily advanced deodorant in the world. Take a look at Secret Kuku Cocoa Butter (yes, I choose deodorants with the weirdest names) on the left. See that tiny dial? Do you understand how slippery that thing can be if I forget to put deodorant on until after I’ve moisturized?

On the Dove deodorant, the entire bottom turns. Yeah, it is basically a huge handle. Brilliant for those of us with and without excellent manual dexterity.

I feel bad for women if your deodorants just now figured out the huge handle thing. Mine have been that way for years.
