One clogs your sweat pores and one doesn't. Fuck you.

It's usually antiperspirant deodorant vs. deodorant. An antiperspirant deodorant has deodorizing ingredients but also contains an antiperspirant ingredient in the form of an aluminium salt that blocks a sweat duct from releasing sweat at all. For eccrine sweat ducts, this is a pretty straightforward mechanism. For apocrine sweat ducts, I don't know how it does it without clogging a follicle and inviting comedonal acne.

Generally speaking, antiperspirant doesn't have much of a chemical mechanism, it physically blocks sweat from leaving your pores. Like anything, its perfectly fine in moderation, soap will be able to wash most of it out after a few showers. But if you use it daily for an extended period of time the residue will build up, not very comfortable or good for you. Wear antiperspirant to job interviews/parties/scenarios where you may not wash for some time (eg: a trans-continental flight). Otherwise, just wear deodorant and let your skin breathe easy.

I use an aluminum free deodorant. Sure you have to reapply it more often, but you can leave it on for a long time without developing a rash.

Fuck all that shit, using antiperspirant is retarded AF. Use oxygenated water to kill the bacteria, is far safer, and far more effective.

Wanna know what is coming out my main pore (aka. the bull pore, my ass)?
