I don’t use shower gel. I’m so hairy, my shampoo is used all over my body. Does the job just fine.
For deodorant, I use Old Spice, the Fiji scented one. I brought my wife to the store and asked her to bring me a deodorant scent that she enjoyed, and this is the one she landed on.
I make sure to use just the deodorant type, not the deodorant/antiperspirant. The antiperspirant stuff sticks to my armpits and clothes, and takes a few days to fully scrub off. I don’t sweat enough to bother with it.
