up2you2 Posted August 6, 2023 Share Posted August 6, 2023 I have been using Boots anti-antiperspirant here in Thailand. Seemingly it is no longer going to be available. I would be interested to hear from others, as to what their preferences are, ideally ones that work and don 't cost a lot. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post KhunLA Posted August 6, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted August 6, 2023 EXIT Ultra Blue about half the price of Nivea and works as good or better. Actually I wouldn't be surprised if they came out of the same production line. Deodorant should be applied in the evening, after shower/before sleep, in case you didn't know. 1 1 2 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post bbko Posted August 6, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted August 6, 2023 Just make sure you get the one that whitens, apparently dark armpits are a concern for some. 2 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My favorite is "Nam Plaa 129 Hour Anti-Perspirant." Good for fending off annoying neighbors, or unruly soi dogs. 1 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mokwit Posted August 6, 2023 Share Posted August 6, 2023 I'm afraid all day protection only comes from the gooey type that takes ages to dry. I use Nivea black charcoal. Forget the designer stuff - if you can't go home and shower you will be very smelly by the time you meet your date in the evening. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are all Nivea deodorants the same to you? Your other assertions are equally strange ???? Edited August 6, 2023 by NextG 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take your time. Hint ... most people would compare the price of a similar product. You don’t have a clue as to what you are going on about. The picture above yours, posted by myself, is from just one of a wide range of Nivea deodorants. Specifically Silver Protect. It works differently from their cheaper standard deodorants in that it has ‘anti-bacterial’ properties. It’s the dying bacteria that makes you smell bad. Your suggestion bears no relation to that product. Instead it might be compared to the Nivea Cool Blue product. Then your assertion that deodorant should only be worn in the evening ????????♂️ 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BangkokHank Posted August 6, 2023 Share Posted August 6, 2023 I can recommend one that you SHOULDN'T buy: https://www.deoklear.com This Thai stick deodorant is the first deodorant that I have ever bought that simply cannot be applied. It's just a solid block of something that just doesn't go on. They really need to rework their formula. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s anti-bacterial and will have a cumulative effect over time. But you need to wet the stick and apply it after you shower.

richard_smith237 Posted August 6, 2023 Share Posted August 6, 2023 I try and bring as many as I can from the UK on my bianual trips.. 150ml Rexona in Thailand is about B 163 / £3.70.... [B108/100ml] 250ml Sure (UK brand for Rexona) in the UK is £1.99 / B 88... [B34/100ml] The deodorant in Thailand is 3x more expensive and I go through a lot as I do plenty of sport and shower 2-3 times on most days.. I bring about 10 tins back with me from the UK on each visit. Recently I switched to using the womens Rexona simply because I'm cheap and object to paying more for the mens one for ultimately the same product. Worthy of a thread: Hardly, but the additional expense of deodorant here is something that has always struck me as strange, particularly for a very warm and humid nation. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
