Scent Sans Smudge

This blog is a consumer report on Old Spice deodorizer versus Speed Stick. In my personal opinion, Old Spice is the best deodorant on the market today. I have used many brands prior to declaring Old Spice the best. Prior to my devotion to Old Spice, I used Speed Stick.

The problem with Speed Stick is that when dressing, you must be careful to not let your shirt touch your underarms after freshly applying deodorant. If this happens then the entire affected area will have a track of white smudges dirtying your shirt. Also, if you use Speed Stick while wearing a white undershirt, it will turn the underarms of your white undershirt yellow. This is not the best thing while trying to keep undergarments in presentable condition. Last but not least, Speed Stick fades over a short period of time. When applying Speed Stick in the morning and then commuting to school, it is best to keep a spare deodorant in ones backpack to reapply during lunch or throughout the day as needed.

However, with Old Spice I have not had any of these problems. It lasts throughout the day, doesn’t leave yellow marks, and more importantly doesn’t smudge my clothes after a fresh application.
