Antiperspirant tends to be the stuff that contains concerning heavy metals. You're supposed to be able to sweat, it's just the stinky part that sucks haha.

    Aluminum oxide is the primary active ingredient to most anti-perspirants. It may cause skin irritation in some people, but the perceived health risks are unfounded.

    Anti-perspirants also ruin clothes. I guess the aluminum causes that? Either way it's annoying to use. Killing the sweat bacteria with booze instead and having a nice fragrance on top of it works fine.

    Oh I still sweat. So don't worry about that. Using deodorant I can still smell like a boar pen within an hour after use. Even if I'm just sitting at a desk with my eyes closed.

    You want me to use all the heavy metal antiperspirant I got.
