Found this video coz I just got the Kosas one. I thought using the AHA concept as a deodorant was quite interesting. I’m glad it works! My pits could use some brightening, exfoliation and moisturizing, too, and I Just put it on now. I just clicked subscribe, too, coz your perspective will probably be different from the usual skincare reviewers-seems more relatable. Keep it up! Looking forward to watch your channel grow :)
I really appreciate the support Elea!!! I hope your Kosas deodorant works just as well for you...always hard to say considering how different everyone's body chemistry is. I'm still in love with them, and given I bought three that all work super well I should be well-stocked for a while😂
PapiCare after bravely using this at work today, I am happy to report that after 8 hours of my labor job and the summer heat, the pits have NO SMELL! Unbelievable 🤯
I'm totally a year late on this video, but super glad you reviewed these three particular brands. I too am currently using Schmidt's unscented - I started with NATIVE though it helped me with no BO it was irritating and all I could smell was the scent of the bar, which was a no go. Schmidt's is great does the work, but as you mentioned as well, it is chalky and there are times I'll get some cysts or rashes, I think its honestly the powdery residue that's left on your skin. Which is why I'm glad you reviewed these cause' I wanted either a gel or liquid base for my next try! Thanks again for this video!
Dude, I really needed this video! I recently shaved my armpits about a week or two ago, which I don’t recommend at all... I’ve been sweating a lot more and I have to throw every shirt in the wash everyday. These deodorants are definitely something I need to check out while my hair grows back! I appreciate the thorough review on each one! Thanks Papi!
Haha yeah I can’t imagine shaving my armpits. Or at least the irritation from it growing back 😂 I might make a follow up video on this in the next month, I’m finding during these winter months while I’m on accutane the Necessaire one might be drying out my pits. Might go buy another Sweet Pitti.
THANK YOU for this video!!! its so hard to find compare and contrast review videos!! And these are the three deodorants that i have been wondering how they differ so this video is gold! Plus you covered so much great info needed and have such a great personality!! thank you thank you thank you! New subscriber:)
Thank you so much Sabrina! I’m actually debating a follow up video soon on all three. I’m really putting them through some tests this summer and they’ve been letting me down…the saving grace is you can reapply any of these and the acids neutralize the smell again instantly.
I need to give the Kosas one more of a try, same with necessaire. Kosas was failing me a few weeks ago when I wore it for the first time after Drunk Elephant ran out. I also happened to be sprinting around an office pushing a cart. That said, slapping on a second round of Kosas instantly killed any smell.
Used to loveee the DE one but after several months or a year of use it started to make me itch terribly. So bad I had to go to the dermatologist to figure out what it was, I was in denial this would do that to me lol. Gonna try one of the others and hope I don't get the same reaction!
Oh no! So I followed this up with another video because I found after 6 months or so, none of these worked for me anymore. In fact, they seemed to make things worse. Had to switch back to regular deodorant 😢
I love this. Thank you. And funny about the sore spot. I had that as well before I switched to this. Seems to be an issue with me and deodorant. So I’m in the test faze and I’m hopeful.
Ahaha Karla how have you been getting it out then?! 😂 I might end up buying another bottle of that. The stronger ones seem to be too much for my skin on accutane and during the winter.
I started with the DE Sweet Pitti but I got the Kosas for when I'm done. I'm also looking into Lume Deodorant which also has an AHA and is slightly cheaper per oz. Anywho, thanks the review! I was on the fence about Kosas and made the jump.
hi! just wondering if either of you ended up trying lume? im currently using lume and it works really well at preventing body odor but when you first put it on, it smells really strong and it makes me sorta nauseous - even though i have the “unscented” version. since lume is also a mandelic acid, im curious how it compares to the DE and kosas! im hoping to find something that works as well as lume but doesnt have as strong of s smell when applied
@alexaalyeshm everyone and their mama seems to love lume but for me unfortunately it just never works tried it a couple years ago and again more recently with their new formula still didn't work, bo in like 30 min after application if that and the new one always made my pits sting when applying. I'm going to give kosas a try and I hope it works cause so far nothing is working.
I'm so glad! Let me know what you end up with and how you like it! I'm about to post another review of Native deodorant that another user asked about a while ago. Awful stuff. My skin and smells and everything are back to perfect after coming back to these. Great products, I hope they work for you too!
I found all three of these and wanted to try them! Crazy this video covers the exact same three haha, but now I just have to choose one. Did you find that the Nécessaire kept you more dry and fought against sweat more than the other two? Thanks!
Honestly I found that they all worked pretty much exactly the same for me as far as performance went. They won't stop sweat, they'll just neutralize any smell from it. I found even with antipersperants, I'd still end up sweating AND ruining my tshirts or undershirts, so I'm a huge fan now of embracing the sweat and just having it not smell. Like I mentioned in the video, I really liked that Kosas one a ton...Nécessaire was probably my number 2 but I was a HUGE fan of its scent. I'm currently using the Drunk Elephant so I can get through it. Once I start using one of the other two regularly I'm never going to want to touch the DE one again.
Idkkkk man... I've tried every single natural deodorant there is on the market (except all the high ends ones like the ones in this video) and ohhhhhh boy they were terrible. Im a girl and I sweat like a pig and it stinks. So idk if I should try these.. you really tempting me but I find that the prices are kinda ridiculous..
Sooo I posted a followup to this earlier in 2021 you might wanna check out. I loved these for months. Then all of a sudden they started failing. My body had gotten used to them and I actually smelled worse WITH them than without. I've switched back to a Dove antiperspirant.
Oh man I legit just bought DE and kosa today. Can’t stand the smell of DE. It has a musty smell like unwashed oily hair 😔 kosa smell isn’t the best but it’s definitely the better of the two. I used one on each armpits. Not sure what to do with DE
You can smell it after it has dried down a bit? I never really smelled it day-to-day. I hope these work for you, after maybe 5 months or so my body got used to them and actually smelled worse when I used them. Had to switch back to regular antiperspirant.
@@papistyle6479 when it dried out it smelled a lot sweeter but still bad. I’ll try and alternate between the two or use DE at home. Can’t believe it’s on the market. I guess different people have different scents
@@yintotheyang6433 I initially was put off by the DE scent but I really didn't smell it day-to-day and it ended up being my favorite of these three before they all stopped working for me.
Thank you so much for reviewing these! I've been using Kosas and absolutely love it too. Do you know if these types of AHA deoderants are good for long term use or if we should switch weekly or so between them and a non-AHA deoderant? Before starting to use Kosas, I used Schmidt's too
This is kind of an old video, but I wanted to share that the Schmidt's causes a rash because of the baking soda. It's not good for the armpits for a lot of people...I learned that the hard way. 😒 Btw, I found this video because I wanted to try the Drunk Elephant. Got it, and I hope it works!
Let me know how it works for you! After using all three extensively since this video I’m starting to think that one actually performs the best, just picked up a new bottle to try it again.
@@papistyle6479 Yes, I'm liking it so far! I tried this out because I have eczema on my armpits...they are so sensitive, so all I could use was the Vanicream deodorant. I was very cautious to try this because I wasn't sure if mandelic acid would be a good idea, but it's doing fine so far! Admittedly, I don't sweat all that much, and I don't have a very strong smell when I do. Must be the Asian genes. 😅 Anyway, the true test will be when I work outside in the summer. I agree that the container design makes the whole thing so messy. It is cute though. I accidentally pushed out too much this morning. So which deodorant did you end up liking most after long term use? Will you make a follow up video?
That’s the plan. I need to actually crack my second DE one here soon and try again. I used that the most and had zero issues. The other two have let me down before.
@@papistyle6479 Ok, so I'm on day 5. The weather has gotten warmer, and I've actually sweat a bit. Now, my sweat isn't usually pungent enough for a person next to me to smell it, but there is an odor. I don't smell a thing with the DE! I'm very happy with it! I'll probably never try the other 2 you reviewed because they have lactic acid, which is harsher than mandelic acid. I'm worried that may be too much for my armpits. I once used a glycolic acid toner on my armpits because I kept reading about AHAs used there. Big mistake for me!
@@BriseisMusic I'm so glad! And honestly, you're not wrong I notice my armpits are red for a little after using the other two. I need to go back and try the DE again (just bought another) because the Necessaire one isn't quiiite cutting it if I'm really active. Glad you're loving the DE one!
Interesting! I used the entirety of my Drunk Elephant one to get it out of the way. Then I moved onto the Kosas, but when I was running around a bit at work it was failing hard. That concerned me. I switched to the Necessaire one and even with physical activity it seems to be fine. Even with the Kosas after I started to smell a bit if I just threw some more on it killed the smell immediately. If I ever have some definitive change with their performance I plan to make another video.
I used the Drunk Elephant for one tube. While the product worked great, who has square armpits? I refused to buy the deodorant again because of the design of the tube.
Can’t blame ya there. I felt the same, though I recently picked up another. Since I’ve been extra active again, the other two had times where they let me down. I need to see how DE performs under stress now...
I haven't, but here's my follow up video: th-cam.com/video/YZp8NJeiBK8/w-d-xo.html The three I used in the original video didn't seem to stain anything. I have religiously stuck to the Dove deodorant I mentioned in the follow up ever since.
I got the drunk elephant deodorant a little while ago and I was curious what the best way to use it was, I'm really glad I found this video because I didn't really know that it wasn't antiperspirant so I wasn't sure why I was still sweating after a few weeks of using it, I do really love it though I don't smell at all and my armpits are way smoother but I don't use it with certain clothes that show sweat but other than that it's great. I like to apply it with my fingers because it goes on better, it also smells a little like almond probably because it has sweet almond oil in it
After watching this you have made me think about deodorant more, as I've never tried a natural product, but I'm going to give a polite piece of information, toward the 17 minute mark it felt like the video was dragging on a bit and can cause some disinterested and some people might click off, again not trying to be rude but giving you another view point
Not rude at all, you know I appreciate the feedback. As someone who rarely watches such long videos I wholeheartedly agree and will be taking a shorter approach to my next video. I was mulling over rerecording some of it after reading your comment but eh I'm just going to leave it as-is. Thanks again for the support. All-natural products are great, but only if they work as well or better than the bad stuff. I think with the acids included, these definitely do.
Professor Papi over here with the experimentations 😂 but you not fooling me, I know the real reason why you did this review. I see all them comments being left by woman! You sly dog you 😂 Jk! Since subscribing your videos have been popping up a lot and this was a great one since I’ve dealt with deodorant issues for decades now. I recently came across humble brand deodorant which is great BUT it leave a white residue which can get all over your shirts and it clumps under my armpits making it so annoying to get off in the shower. My questions here are do any of these products leave any residue which will transfer to your clothes? And lastly do you still use any of these products? Thanks for the excellent honest review!
Maybe I'll pick one up at Target and do a review. I told myself I was never going to use one without AHAs again after how extraordinarily well these all performed compared to any deodorant or antiperspirant I've used my entire life.
