LadyShoshin -> For BBWs & BHM (8/25/2004 9:31:23 AM)

When we are larger, we have rolls, especially if we have dieted and can't afford plastic surgery to have the excess skin removed. It seems no matter how well you shower, at some point during the day, there is an "ucky" odour under the rolls or breasts.
Years ago I couldn't wear sweaters because of the BO that would happen during the course of the day. I found something that comes from Israel and can be found in some health food stores. It is Lavalin cream, they have it for underarms & for feet. You don't need to use it every day, it is expensive in comparison to regular deoderants, but you use a lot less. I use it under my arms, under my breasts & under my belly roll. I had tried using the crystal deoderant, but had a bad reaction to it.

If you want to know more do a keyword search online for Lavalin deodorant and you can find a place near you that stocks it or order online.

This relates to BDSM in that I don't want to have a male sub worshipping my body and saying "eeeeeeeeeewwwwwwwwwwww". I want to smell & feel clean.

Well I don' thave any rolls of fat anywhere. However, under my breasts do sweat a lot.

Is this an anti persperant or a deodorant? Anti persperants are really bad for women. They have been connected with breast cancer. I'm not 100% sure of the current statistics..but I know they are not good.

Oh, also what is a BHM?




LadyShoshin -> RE: For BBWs & BHM (8/25/2004 1:03:16 PM)

It is clearly marked as a deoderant. So no worries about it blocking sweat glands. A BHM is a Big Handsome Man. The male equivalent of BBW

One group of researchers in the UK have postulated that the use of parabens as a preservative agent in antiperspirants, could possibly act as promoters of estrogen dependent breast tissue cells. Philippa Darbre, PhD (the lead researcher in the study) has said the following, "Our research certainly does not prove causality, but we believe that in a few of these tumors the level of this chemical was high enough to promote breast cancer cell growth. We don't know, however, if parabens can cause normal cells to become cancer cells."

I think it's a far cry from this statement to stating that there is any meaningful connection between antiperspirant use and breast cancer, and the American Cancer Society seems to agree. ACS epidemiologist Michael Thun, MD says "even if the parabens do promote estrogen-dependent tumor growth, the risk from cosmetic use is miniscule compared with other known tumor promoters."

A little baby powder helps under the breasts on a hot day.

Hadn't heard of that. The other concern had to do with a particular alluminum salt (sulfate?) used in antiperspirants but not deodorants that was correlated with breast cancer by an American study back in the early 90s. I don't know if the results have stood the test of time. Their data was correlational rather than experimental but they found a strong correlation between antiperspirant and breast cancer (not necessarily proof of cause) and that triggered a lot of other studies to follow.

That was about the same time alluminum was being associated with Alzhiemer's, which has since not held up to further scrutiny.

I like corn silk.. Johnsons and Johnson makes a brand of *baby* poweder that is corn starch and aloevera..lovely.. a nice shower..and a big poofy body puff...




Sundew02 -> RE: For BBWs & BHM (8/26/2004 12:24:47 AM)

I never use baby powder as once it gets wet from sweat it turns hard and is a definite skin irritant. I am very careful not to breath powder particles as it gets in the lungs and like anything else that is aspirated can cause an infection. Corn starch and gold bond work well for me to help with the sticky feeling during the summer months. Sundew




theroebabe -> RE: For BBWs & BHM (8/26/2004 5:23:44 AM)

I had tried using baby powder under the breasts in the summer and it gave me a rash and sort of a mold or fungus so i have medicated powder that the doc gave me for under the breasts when i need it.

There's a cream called 'Neat 3B" here, which is similar to nappy rash cream, I'm guessing, aimed at those who chafe between the thighs, buttocks and breasts. It does work quite well, and doesn't 'slip' off. Wearing skirts too much in warmer weather has, in my experience, led to painful thigh chafing. This cream has worked wonders at soothing and helping to prevent soreness. neat feat




LadyShoshin -> RE: For BBWs & BHM (8/26/2004 9:04:09 AM)

The discussion isn't going in the direction I thought it would, it is going in an even better direction, ideas for BBW & BHM, I love it!




subbiejenn -> RE: For BBWs & BHM (8/26/2004 7:00:40 PM)

I like gold bond also but it dosen't have a great smell [:'(] Baby powder for me dosen't work as well.. I live south Ga almost to fla. so it gets real hot here in the summer and i am a waitress on the weekends so i do a lot of walking and ya well my thighs i guess could be a little smaller cause they tend to rub together some with all the walking. Just wish Gold Bond smelled better!

There was a barber here who died of lung cancer. Although he never smoked, he sued the tobacco companies for causing his cancer through his customers' smoking. (He lost.) One of the defenses the tobacco companies used was that he used talcum powder in his business and that was a "known" cancer causing agent. I didn't know that, but a lawyer buddy of mine told me that it was something that shouldn't be used on female genitals for that reason. Made me shiver. I grew up in a time when all women used bath powder.

Some guy in Louisianna is selling something for diaper rash called (spelling isn't my strong suit) Boudreau's Butt Paste. It was in the news recently. There's a high school teacher there whose hobby is race car driving. He's one of her sponsors and it's painted on her car.

I have the thigh-chafing thing as well, which is not only a problem for larger people. My slim ex-housemate got the same thing as well... it's more how your thighs are built. In fact, in the summer, I never wear a skirt if I know I have a lot of walking to do. So you can imagine I was interested in reading about this product.

I followed the link to the site. I'm not sure if I'll find it in Canada but I'll see about them shipping some here if I ordered it. I have a question for you though... is the odour pleasant? Very important for me as I am very sensitive to smell.

Also, I found this bit on the site so funny "Ideal for athletes, trampers or sports people".

Obviously, a tramper has a different connotation in the land down under ;)

In this instance, the tobacco companies were actually telling the truth! The chemical composition of talc is very similar to asbestos, and there is evidence that exposure to talc can cause lung and ovarian cancer. People using talcum powder might want to switch to a corn starch based powder.

I have stopped using deodorant altogether and just put baby powder on (in?) my pits instead - and although I do sweat a lot, I have not noticed the irritation mentioned in another post after it 'cakes up'

what I would like to know, is if anyone has any suggestions to handle thigh chafing that occurs even while wearing pants (other than the obvious lose weight)?

Baby powder works there too, even hubby uses it, just hold yor breath when you apply it.




Sundew02 -> RE: For BBWs & BHM (8/28/2004 2:00:16 AM)

I will restate my position and back up the already voiced opinions. Powder...talc, or baby, is a no go. Both contain perfume on top of the particles that float in the air. For those that are smell sensitive use corn starch it is heavy enough not to become airborne and reach your lungs. If the temporary smell does not bother you gold bond it is a good product. For years the medical profession has been out spoken against using baby powder on babies. They develop lung problems and even pneumonia from the particles. If you dont have access to the orginal product that LadyShoshin mentioned and can tolerate the consistency and odor use desitin or zinc oxide on already chaffed skin when you are home and wear clothes that you dont mind staining, in the morn the rash/irritation will be gone.

Devra -> RE: For BBWs & BHM (9/22/2004 11:44:10 PM)

Since i have lost a lot of weight (more to go yet), i was told by a doctor after my shower/bath to towel dry lightly and use a hair dryer (not too hot be careful) to dry private parts, under arms, and area if any rollls. i too have found that if You slow down your dieting... and exercise it helps tone, but takes time. it is a pain slowing down the diet but worth it to avoid rolls. I too use coconut lotion all over my body and feet and then use my fav. body splash. At times i even lightly spray it on my hair... hmm men seem to love the smell of my hair (my secret passing it on). *smile also i try to wear a shell and button up shirt... and too try to keep most of my fabric cotton as it breathes best.




ShadeDiva -> RE: For BBWs & BHM (9/24/2004 8:25:37 PM)

That smell is yeast.

Left untreated or on a hot day it can become a painful sore - as the skin will pull and tear on a celluar level.

Aquaphor will stop the pain, make it slippery so the skin won't grip itself and keep tearing/chafing/rubbing, and heal it incredibly fast.

It's available over the counter nowadays I believe - and I think it's fairly inexpensive.

The beauty of having a dermatologist as a father lol.
