Dealing with HS & Eczema: The Struggle of Finding the Right Products

As for deodorant, I have recently been having good results with "Life Doesn't Stink" deodorants. You can also make your own with baking soda, coconut oil, and essential oils.

Try washing with hibiclens!!!!!! Someone on here told me about it about 6 months ago and I have no idea how i ever lived without it. It is surgical soap- and completely gets rid of my HS body odor. Keeps my skin healthier and keeps the flares from getting infected. I also react to most soaps and deodorants, this is the best option I have ever found. I get it from Amazon. The bottle says not to use it in the groin, but it IS safe as long as you dilute it and you don't use it on mucus membranes (aka external use only).

As far as deodorant goes, most have aluminum in them, which sits on the skin and finds its way into your pores. Lume is an aluminum-free deodorant you could try. Personally, I use rubbing alcohol and lime juice (both natural odor eaters). I can't have any chemicals sitting on my skin, so that's what I've found that works for me. Good luck!

I made my own natural soaps now . Seems to help a little with the eczema

I use duradry and witch hazel to help with preventing ingrown and also the smell I get with hs

i changed my deodorant up i use organic deodorant now that doesn’t contain chemicals and harsh ingredients some organic deodorants you can get is off this website https://www.peculiarpeopleholistic.com/?user_id=16521312&utm_source=shop_app and some organic soaps you can use that will be good for the eczema is on this website https://lulusholistics.com/?user_id=16521312&utm_source=shop_app

My HS has ruined so many of my sweat glands that I don’t have to wear deodorant except on particularly hot days. So I mean I’m sure you’ve tried this but if you have a good body wash you like (I love axe) then maybe try using deodorant less? I basically can’t sweat out of my arm pits though so my situation may not be applicable.

Try lume deodorant
