>As for BLEACH on the human body, no way is that good for you.

I was looking at the ingredients of the bleaches i'm using : i found that one of them is benzalahyde based, rather than sodium hydroxide. So its main action isn't a caustic reaction with the fats in whatever its applied to. Should be ok for long term use.

You think you've got a problem with being a hit with the ladies...spare a thought for the woman who has to wake up to this! (My morning selfie attached)

Up in North East Scotland for the last three weeks thinking it would be cooler there, not a hope. Back in sunny NE England now gazing longly at the rain predicted in SW Wales. We brits aren't designed for heat.. Have fun cps.

No worries. I have a plan to mitigate toxic effects. When the benzalahyde is making me sick I'll switch to sodium hydroxide based bleach, and when the sodium hydroxide eats into my skin too much I'll switch back to benzalahyde. That way I'll get the benefits of both and the drawbacks of neither.

ok, after 2 weeks experiment I've settled on the best stuff.

Its really great. I can go out, exercise, come back covered in sweat, don't wash, let the sweat dry, then get my mum to sniff my armpits. She says they don't smell. That would have been unthinkable for me all my adult life up till now.

Oh how crippled I've been without it.
