The marketing is ridiculous, though. It kills me that they think changing the packaging will actually entice consumers. I'm also not a huge fan of stupid additives to products like these: I don't effing care if there are shimmering ribbons in my body wash, I just want to be clean! Secret's vanilla-scented deodorant is AWESOME, though. It makes my underarms smell like cupcakes!

But I'm glad so many of you liked this. That makes me happy! Thanks.

In regards to deoderant I prefer Le Stick. It's natural. I hear so many bad things about Secret. I appreciate you blog, but I would never buy a product just because they are trying to use 'feminism' values etc. on me. It's pretty ridiculous on Secret's end. I ’stumbled-upon’ this blog.

Love the blog, and I especially loved the comment pertaining to Barbie vs Bratz I must say, marketing like that is the exact reason I switch brands. Seriously, could we keep it relevant to what I want it for? No more stinky, please. That's all I need. I stumbleuponed here, too.

Consumerism has brought us to this (citizenry more interested in pop culture than learning / living their civic responsibilities to democracy) and will bring us down eventually (money will rule the govt, but we won't know it b/c of the political spin). In addition, I too am disgusted by the sex marketing to young girls...see book: Female Chauvanist Pig and the Rise of the Age of Raunch. Self-worth from sexiness, implants and plastic surgery.. Excellent blog...ruminating on toiletries is a secret affliction for almost all women!! StumbleUpon powers on!! You can thank marketing consumerism in America for such brand loyalty!
