  1. That’s so freaking true lol I used a glycolic lotion on my legs but put it all over where I had shaved too and that was a BIG MISTAKE 😩 the burn.

  2. Yup, I tried using the ordinary aha under my arms consistently and started getting painful breakouts under there 😬 I just stick with the necessaire one which is gentle and actually meant for under your arms

  3. This feels like a direct response to James Welsh video yesterday where he used The Ordinary 7% glycolic acid as deodorant.

    1. Using OT glycolic acid under armpit isn’t anything new and Dr Dray has already spoken about this trend many times prior this.

    1. … it’s a great idea 😊 And been done forever – it’s only now being discussed because of TikTok.

      I use it 3-4 times a week and my hyperpigmentation is gone. No irritation. No redness. Dr. Dray is great but her advice is not 100% for 100% of people.

  4. I was under the impression it was a treatment that you leave on for a bit and then wash off, not a leave on lotion for deodorant. People are using glycolic acid toner like you would a benzoyl peroxide wash to kill the bacteria that cause BO

  5. I don’t really use glycolic acid much but I seem to have no problem with other acids on my armpits. No irritation. Guess I’m lucky

  6. I do and I’ve seen great results, I’m not saying you’re wrong obviously what you’re saying makes alot of sense too, from my experience it’s ok if you let those areas dry and you do so with caution

  7. This has been used often, and with success, on peri and menopause groups to fight odor causing bacteria where no deodorant seems to work

  8. My armpit and thighs love Glycolic acid. So much clearer and smooth. I cant use glycolic acid on my face, it’s too irritating for my facial skin but my armpits and inner thighs take it like a champ

  9. I have used a moisturizer Aveeno Tone + Texture Two months ago for the body and underarms. It’s a miracle. I got rid of pigmentation and got rid of keratosis pilaris 😍✨

  10. A dematologist on tictoc is saying you can use benzoyl peroxide foaming wash under your pits to reduce odor. Is this ok?

    1. Yes. Dr. Dray says it’s good to do. She has many videos recommending it. I prefer it over deodorant myself. Just make sure you use a moisturizer after because BP can be drying and it will also help seal it in to keep killing the odor causing bacteria.

  11. Dr Dray…the Queen of common sense! We love you Dr Dray! Your channel has really become a game changer for all of us, young and old! We owe you a big debt of gratitude!✨❤️✨🙏🏻✨

  12. If you have problem with smelly sweat, you may want to start making kombucha.
    I heard that some people don’t need to use deodorant thanks to drinking kombucha and it had this effect on me. I still sweat but there is no smell.

    Keep in mind that the store bought kombucha has added sugar and some of them are pastured, so no benefits with that.

    I drink daily 100 ml.
