Nécessaire The Deodorant Gel - Clinical Deodorizing Treatment with 5% AHA. Vitamin B5 + B3. No Bumps. No Discoloration. Dermatologist-Tested. 1.7oz

Simply a great product. Missed it while it was unavailable and so glad it’s back. Intend to continue using this product as long as it keeps working better than other products. Apply to clean underarms, dry it completely (using warm hairdryer if necessary), and enjoy your day. This product is thereof. Thank you for making the unscented roll on available again. The solid version does not compare, in my opinion. This deo prevents odor, doesn’t gunk up your pores or your clothes, and washes off clean. It prevents bumps and doesn’t sting. It has no odor - which to me, means no perfume mixed with yucky BO to try and scrub out of my workout clothing. Can’t beat it.

Ok, so if you are looking for something to stop perspiration completely, this is not the right product. I actually wear this at night, right after my shower and before I sleep. I like the ingredients in it and I think it helps with my discoloration in my armpit area. If your face and neck and lips get anti-aging treatment, why not all your skin? I like the light scent and the roller works really well. Although a bit pricey, I find that it lasts for a long time. Highly recommend.

I have repurchased this 5 times & I keep on because I’ve been able to find anything like it. Here’s all you need to know: My stats: 28 yr old, woman, active, in shape, trying to treat chronic underarm odor The product: THIS IS A TREATMENT, Not a Deodorant How to use: Apply this immediately after getting out of the shower and drying off. Do this right away because once the smell starts, this will not work to treat existing odor. It only continues to work when starting with clean, odor free skin. After it dries, you will need to apply a deodorant on top that will work to stick all day. Results: This works as a treatment pre deodorant in terms of preventing odor or having a very strong one later in the day. For me, this did not work as a solution to my issue but I keep buying it because it helps with initially not smelling but later on in the day it begins to wear off. If I reapply it doesn’t work to treat the new odor. I haven’t found anything that would even help lessen the odor without getting a massive allergic reaction. This gives no reaction even on broken skin. NONE. Conclusion: I am still on the hunt to find a deodorant that will treat my underarm smell without giving me an allergic reaction. I have bought at-least 50 kinds from all different brands and they either don’t work or the clinical strength ones work but I get a horrible rash. I will keep using this as a base treatment to help to lessen the odor but even for that it is very expensive. Until I find the magic one that does both, I’ll continue to purchase.

I love this. I use it after showering, wait for it to try, and put normal deodorant over. It help me be smell proof. If I’m not gonna do much other than lounge around this is usually good on its own. It’s also helped my armpits feel smooth and not get weird lumps which can happen from aluminum deodorants

UPDATE: I'm giving this a 1 star. It did not hold the smell but I believe made me smell musty-er. I did not see much changes using this. I decided to just stick with the toner because it actually helps with odor control, color, and boils and many other things. This was way too expensive and did nothing for me within the 3 bottles I bought. I could literally say, I gave this a trail period and this last bottle I'm not even finishing it. Out here smelling like a grown man after 5 hours of basketball practice smh. I would let it dry before i put on a shirt and on some days, if I'm not doing much activity at all (just in a car and out, less then 30 mins walking) it might last but it is not worth it for me. I did not see much difference in the color of my underarm and I was not consistent with the tumeric soap or the toner, only I was consistent with this. I can't say much about any boils or bumps underarm because it truly also depends on your intake of foods. Since I consume more sugar and dairy, I had a few more breakouts and I can't blame this for not preventing that. I'm using this for some weeks now. I nearly gave up on it week 1 because it did not help with odor, especially in the heat wave we had. It didn't even last 30 mins. Im not sure about the lightened of the arms yet but that's why I'm sticking with it. I use another deodorant at times and use this when I know I'm not going to sweat too much. Hopefully I can come back and give results on how my underarms lightened up. I'm using this and tumeric soap. Also I use a toner from ordinary.

this stuff really works! I have to dry it with the blow dryer before I get dressed, or it is sticky. But it works great in preventing odors and wetness. I was really skeptical about it working, but I'm sold. I'm traveling to Houston in August. So that will be the real test.

I regularly use The Ordinary for my armpits and wanted to try one with AHA specially for the armpits. The eucalyptus scent immediately drew me in, as well as the aluminum free ingredients. I'm not sure if the value is good for a 1.7 oz, especially if I've seen a standard 3.4 oz for cheaper with about the same ingredients, so the pricing definitely feels off to me especially if I can make something like this at home but with the Ordinary Glycolic acid. As for sweat resistance, I don't really care for it as that's house we drain out the toxins in the body. Longevity, I still had some B.O., so I find that it wasn't as effective as an 8% ratio of AHA.

I’ve tried them all, as they say. Your standard drugstore, your homemades, and natural… some work for half a day, or not at all. Lume worked for a bit, but the scent that worked best for me was discontinued when the company expanded. Their current options make me smell worse (it’s typically that a specific essential oil doesn’t agree with individual body chemistry). This is most comparable to my other deodorant in rotation: Kosas. Though I’ve been ordering this Necessaire one above all others for about 2 years. Hands down my favorite and incidentally I’ve discovered a few of my friends also use it. It’s clean and uses enzymes and acids to kill bacteria. I stay clean and odor free all day. If I go beyond a day I can begin to smell a faint stink - but I shower every night and reapply, so that’s not an issue. Remember : it doesn’t stop you from sweating, but it kills the bacteria to stop odor. I live in Texas and don’t want to use antiperspirants, so I just keep little fresh handkerchiefs on me, so I have them to dab any sweat if needed. It never smells though! If you don’t allow it to dry fully before getting dressed (in a rush, I just dab with a clean cloth or paper towel), I’ve noticed I will be guaranteed to sweat nonstop that day. So just let it dry! Since it’s a roll on, 2 tips: • only apply to clean armpits (dont be nasty - you don’t want bacteria getting rolled up into the container - it’s good at *preventing* bacteria growth on your body, not killing an entire colony) • apply to dry armpits and allow to dry fully before getting dressed (there’s not really a transfer issue, it just helps keep your armpits dry through the day) PS I have super sensitive skin and am eczema prone, and this doesn’t bother me at all. It can occasionally sting if I’ve *just* shaved, but that’s par for the course with shaving then applying a liquid deodorant, though if that happens it subsides within 2-3 seconds (has literally only happened a handful of times and I shave every few days).

I got this because I noticed my old deodorant was toxic this one is definitely better but must be used daily on clean skin.
