    To add: It’s a good idea to occasionally check with someone else how you smell, because we notice our own smell less than others.

      Yep. I developed eczema and soap/chemicals are not my friend, I will forgo deodorant in the winter and use it lightly during the summer - you’d be surprised how little you really need - but I am checking with people about it regularly. I had a friend tell me I smelled like “outside” which made me realize the crystal deodorant wasn’t working right.
