Don’t you hate it when your white shirts get armpit stains? There are a couple of ways to get them out of whites:
- Use a paste of Borax and water and work it into the stain. Let it sit for around 30 minutes, brush it off and wash as usual.
- Rub a few teaspoons of hydrogen peroxide into the stain. let it sit for a few minutes and wash. Don’t use with colors!
- Try baby wipes that contain alcohol- the alcohol helps dissolve just about anything.
The best way to avoid pit stains is not to get them at all! Colgate-Palmolive has just introduced a new line of anti-perspirant/deodorant products for men and women with Stain Defense Technology. Their special formula was designed to help fight those pesky yellow stains and white residue on clothing while providing 24 hour protecting against odor and wetness. Speed Stick Stainguard and Lady Speed Stick Stainguard retail for a suggested price of $2.49-2.99 at mass grocery and drug retail stores nationwide. We were sent some to try out. The Lady Speed Stick is available in Powder Fresh and Daringly Fresh. I tried the powder version and really liked how smooth it went on and the fact that the fragrance was light and not overpowering. Since I normally wear dark colors (I don’t even own a white shirt!) I can’t attest to the Stain Defense aspect of this product but I CAN vouch for the residue factor. Even though the stick is white, it didn’t leave any visible marks at all on my dark clothing which is a lot more than I can say for many other similar products. Rather than trying to deal with trying to get stains out, why not start at the root of the problem and give Speed Stick with Stainguard a try?
