Deodorant and antiperspirant products, though not expensive, do last for quite awhile. So if you end up buying one you hate, you can either throw it out, or let it clutter up your bathroom cabinet for months to come.

Trying out deodorant samples will give you a chance to check out your options before you make a purchase. Say goodbye to the deodorant guessing game next time you stop by Walmart. Free deodorant samples are also great for stashing in your gym bag or for taking along on your next vacation.

Here are some things to consider when choosing a good deodorant or antiperspirant:

1. Effectiveness – If you sweat a lot during the day, or during a typical workout, you are definitely going to need a stronger product.

2. Scent – If you wear a noticeable perfume or cologne on a daily basis, consider going for an unscented deodorant. This helps to avoid different scents from clashing. If you don’t wear a fragrance very often, and just like a nice fresh scent, then choosing a clean smelling deodorant and perhaps a matching body spray can give you what you’re looking for. Dove has some great body sprays that match their deodorant and antiperspirant products.

3. Product Type – Most people opt for the typical stick or solid formula. Others prefer a gel or a spray formula. For guys with underarm hair, you may want to avoid the stick deodorants since gels and sprays tend to be more effective when being applied to the skin. For most women, sticks tend to go on smoother and easier and to feel more comfortable.
