I like the deodorant line sold by Avon stores across the country. It's the only brand that seems to do anything at all (and there aren't many choices), but beyond that it actually seems to work. It smells lilac-fresh and seems to hold up well under heat. It's only available in roll-on. I hear a lot of people complaining that they can't get their stick they like so much better, but these ungrateful wretches should be glad they can get decent deodorant here at all. Those grouchy old foreign teachers are always moaning about something...

I can get Fa roll on here - large and small travel sizes.

Yes, but I hate Fa. It seems to be completely ineffective...

Smells pretty- but that is the French all over isn't it? I bought almost 2 years supply with me from Oz - would have been 2 years but I gave some to other waiguoren!!

The french put roll-on deodorant all over? I can see that.
The thread should be toiletries or something though. I have to start a new thread if I want to bag out Chinese shaving products.

Nivea roll on deodorant is making a big splash here in Hubei. Most of the cities here have the roll on and a few have the stick. The roll on is 20kuai or so and the stick is 40. Both only come in one scent that I have seen and that is "Fresh". I find it a clean smell.
I like this one better than AVON and Fa.
But I am a Secret girl at heart.

Secret is sold in Beijing in Jenny Lou's stores. They don't have the gel one, just a regular one. Well, I am a Rexona fan, not Secret. I bought myself deodorants enough to last me over a year. And everytime someone I know goes abroad I actually ask them to bring me stuff if I am about to run out of my stock in the following 3-4 months. Nivea, Fa and Avon don't work for me either. Except for Nivea deodorant spray which you can also find in Beijing in Watson's stores.
