Sure Cotton Dry Stick

[tiggerblue10]

I've looked for this product in tesco and boots but it's not on the shelves anymore. The spray and I think the roll-on are still there but the stick doesn't seem to be available.

Anyway, I've ordered some off amazon but they're slightly more expensive. I hope it hasn't been discontinued as its the only scent I like and I've been using it for many years.

Anyone else use it and if so do you know where its available?

[pastafreak]

I'd like to know the answer too. Is this the 48hr protection one? I've also used it for years for the same reason. I know the packaging has changed.

[pastafreak]

There's this in Amazon...

The Sure Deodorant website is showing that the product as still listed and 'in stock' at several supermarkets. Here's a screen shot:

Trolly.co.uk lists it as being widely available:

It would seem likely that there have just been a few distribution problems in your local area.

Chris..."roll-on" and "stick" are different products.

[pastafreak]

Ignore the Boots listing. I've got one of those in my bedside table and it's not the one. Well, not for me at least.

[THECORBYLOON]

Come on CHRIS, that's a schoolboy error...

[tiggerblue10]

Yep, that's the one, Pasta. It's the only scent I seem to like as it smells fresh. Not keen on others.

Chris, I can't do roll-on as I find them too sticky and the take ages to dry. At least they used to anyway.

I might get the ebay ones if they come back into stock, TCL.

Cheers all

[THECORBYLOON]

They went quickly!

[pastafreak]

I don't do full-on either...feels awful.

[pastafreak]

Roll-on!

>>> Come on CHRIS, that's a schoolboy error...

Look, I just buy whatever's cheapest in B&M, Poundstretcher, et al! Don't expect me to be an expert in such things ;-)

However that means that the product that Tigger is searching for appears to be discontinued. Searching for 'stick', in the product listings on the Sure website, finds only five products. Two of those are in their men's range. The remaining three are 'Sure Women Invisible Aqua', 'Sure Women Advanced Protection, Ultimate Fresh' and 'Sure Women Confidence Maximum Protection'. The 'Cotton Dry' product is not shown.

For a definitive answer, call 0800 0852639 between 8.30am and 9.00pm on a weekday.

If you can't get the product you want, why not simply buy an unscented deodorant stick and make yourself smell nice with something else?

I've been using this, and it's not nearly as effective as the cotton.
I also need to be careful of ingredients...some cause rashes or blocked glands.

[237SJ]

All anti-perspirants block glands (pores) though. That's what the aluminium salts do.

[tiggerblue10]

Most things I use now are unscented, Chris. I've become quite sensitive to smells and any perfumes etc., irritate my nose. Cotton dry stick is the only scented thing I like the smell of.

There was a time where I could use all manner of sprays like hairspray, antiperspirant and body sprays without it affecting me but now I've got a load of perfumes sitting on my dresser gathering dust!

Only 3 hours later and I've realised I forgot the link in my post at 19:21...

I won't use anything that contains aluminium. There might be no connection at all with breast cancer but then again, there just might be.

[Buenchico]

My suggestion of looking for an unscented product still stands then.

However I'm having doubts about the product in my link at 1911 above. It's clearly described as a 'stick' in the description on the Trolley.co.uk website, as it also is on the Asda website
https://groceries.asda.com/product/womens-roll-on-deodorant/mitchum-advanced-control-women-48-hr-protection-unscented-anti-perspirant-deodorant-stick/910001297106

However I noticed that the shape of the product shown looks suspiciously like a roll-on on both sites and looking closer at the images seems to show the term 'roll-on' at the bottom left of the pictures. The stick version definitely exists (see my Amazon link below) but you'd need to check in Asda, etc, to find out whether it's the description or the image that's correct on their website listings. They clearly can't both be!
