PSA: Secret's New Whole Body Deodorant Is Here To Save Your Summer

Stock up at Walmart to smell good — not swampy — all season long.

Forget sweater weather — because it’s about to be summer, which means sweat weather is on the horizon. You know, the kind of humidity and high temps that can ruin your makeup, your outfit, and pretty much your whole day within a matter of minutes. And if you too start to, well, glisten as soon as you leave the comfort of your air conditioned house, you’re not alone. While a little sweat never hurt anyone, it doesn’t have much aesthetic appeal — and worse, it can start to smell if left unchecked. While one imperfect solution is to simply spray a basic deodorant mist everywhere (I’ve done it, and it’s not cute), I’m happy to share that there’s finally a better, much more effective way to stay fresh even in the hottest of heatwaves.

Secret, the brand you already know, love, and swear by for their range of deodorants and antiperspirants, just released a line of Whole Body Deodorants that’s going to change your summer forecast for the better. Here’s everything you need to know.

How It Works

As the name implies, Secret’s Whole Body Deodorant can be applied everywhere from head to toe — including under your boobs, around your privates, on your feet, between your thighs, and (no surprise here) under your arms. In other words, it works wherever you tend to get a little stinky.

If the idea of slathering a deodorant everywhere — and I mean everywhere — gives you pause, no sweat (pun very much intended). Secret formulated the line with the help of five female dermatologists to ensure that the products are gentle enough for even the most sensitive skin. The products even contain pH-balanced minerals to keep you fresh without throwing your balance off. And just as important is what's not included in the ingredient list: Secret’s Total Body Deodorants are free of aluminum, dyes, parabens, and phthalates.

Secret’s newest releases are also clinically proven to provide odor protection for 72 hours, so you can stay fresh and confident all through a sweltering day — and then some. It also goes on clear, which means you can apply it before slipping on tanks or dresses without worrying about telltale white marks.

And as with any personal care product, scent is not one-size-fits-all, so you can choose the fragrance that’ll keep you feeling on your game all day. Lilac & Water Lily lends a hint of florals, while Peach & Vanilla Blossom delivers bright, sweet vibes. (There are also plenty of unscented options, too, for those who’d prefer to keep it covert.)

While some people might prefer the traditional stick style deodorant (hey, old habits die hard) the formulas also come in mist and cream form. The stick allows for precise application, while the cream is perfect for those hyper-targeted areas. And if you’re the type of person who tends to get entirely drenched in sweat (and consequently stanky) within a matter of minutes, you might want to go all-out with the mist, which offers elite protection in no time.

Bottom line? Stock up at Walmart now, because with Secret’s Whole Body Deodorant in hand — and also everywhere else — you’re guaranteed to have your best(-smelling) summer ever.
