in front of the deodorant section.

面前都全是除臭劑

This is the women's deodorant section.

這一邊的都是女士專用的

I'm going to explain the deodorant section because that's one of the biggest topics people talk about.

這次的主題就是在除臭劑，因為很多人在這方面有很多想知道的

They always say you should bring your own deodorant to Japan, or

很多人都說如果到日本旅行時，一定要自帶除臭劑

Japanese people don't sell deodorant, or Japanese people don't smell.

說在日本不賣除臭劑，因為日本人不會有體臭

And I'm going to explain what all of that is about.

所以在此我想來跟大家解釋真正的情況

East Asian people tend not to smell quite as much

大部分的亞洲人的確不太容易有體臭

and that's probably why they need as strong deodorant.

所以對除臭劑的需求就不是那麼多

But of course they do still sweat, they do still smell, so they do still have deodorant.

但是這不代表他/她們不會流汗，有時也需要除臭劑來蓋掉汗味

And I'm going to show you what those are.

那現在我來拿幾個給你們看看

But first, in order to pick out an effective deodorant,

在這之前，你需要一個對你有效的除臭劑

here's 30 seconds on what to look for.

來個30秒的講解怎麼尋找

You have two product types: deodorant and antiperspirants.

有兩種可以挑選：除臭劑和止汗劑

Deodorants temporarily kill off bacteria and can also mask odors by applying something that smells better.

除臭劑可以及時殺菌和覆上香味

Antiperspirants actually fill in and block your sweat pores,

止汗劑是把汗孔堵上

and prevent sweat from being released, and thus odor from being produced in the first place.

當把汗孔堵上的時候，就不會有汗味出來了

For people who have noticeable body odor, antiperspirants are usually needed.

一般人通常都會選擇止汗劑

The ingredient that makes a deodorant an antiperspirant is aluminum.

止汗劑裡的成分主要的是鋁 (aluminium)

Back to products!

回到主題！

Here is one of the big products they have, which is a deodorant water.

這些是最出名的除臭水劑

And you just kind of splash this on you.

只需要噴到局部

If you can see this katakana it says "テスター."

如果你看到這個片假名

At drugstores they have lots and lots of testers for most products so you can try something out before you buy it.

很多藥品店都有很多試用品可以讓你在購買之前，試用一下

So, deodorant water.

看這個除臭水劑

It looks like it's probably just the white powder deodorant mixed into a water.

看起來就像白色的除臭劑跟水混在一起

It smells really good!

聞起來非常的好！

Jun's had these before, but I've never really considered them strong deodorants

Jun 以前有用過，但是我不會覺得有特別好的效果

so I haven't really used them.

所以我不太使用這一類的

You can see they have a powder spray, which we have in America as well.

你也可以看到這裡有像美國賣的粉噴式的

Those have also never worked for me very well.

這些對我來說也不是非常有效

More powder sprays down here.

下面這邊有更多的粉噴式的

Ban is really, really popular.

Ban 是一個很出名的牌子

This is also a deodorant spray.

有是個粉噴式的

I have used these before.

我以前也使用過

I don't know how well they actually worked, but they smell really good.

我也不清楚它們的實用度，但是它們非常好聞

Typically what I've done in the past is I've used a Japanese deodorant,

我通常都是先使用日本的除臭劑

and then I've sprayed this on afterward.

然後再使用這一類的

More of the water deodorants.

這邊的大多數都是除臭水劑

This is a TINY spray!

這個非常的小！

Here we're getting into the roll on deodorant section.

這邊我們看到的都是真正的除臭劑

It's actually pretty small,

藥量都非常的小

which is why they usually say Japan doesn't have a lot of deodorant.

也是表示日本真的不太有除臭劑的市場

Most of these roll on deodorants are actually a liquid type of roll on,

大致上這些除臭劑都是用滑的，讓液體滑出

so it'll just be the ball and you'll have a little bit of water going over it.

裡面有個球會滑出水來

And that's probably what these are.

大概就是這樣吧

Let's see...

讓我來看看...

Yeah.

嗯

So you can see this is just the liquid type.

你可以看到這就是一些液體

It's not an actual powder [stick] deodorant.

不是甚麼粉狀的

And then here is where you have a more normal type of deodorant.

這個是一個比較正統的除臭劑

They're kind of weird in Japan because they're typically circular like this

這些在日本裡形狀會比較接近圓形

instead of the long oval types that we have.

跟美式的除臭劑相比形狀不同

I'm running out of deodorant places!

我在找可以擦除臭劑的地方！

And this one is almost $8 if you convert this to American dollars.

這個呢，如果換成美金大約是8塊

Just for this really tiny bottle!

光光就這一小瓶！

So, they're pretty expensive.

所以很貴的

This one's another water one.

這一個也是除臭水劑

So this is another more Western type deodorant.

這個比較接近西式的除臭劑

But as you can see, it's tiny!

但是你看它的尺寸就還是小阿！

It's a little baby deodorant!

就是一個嬰兒版除臭劑！

What I typically recommend is this brand right here!

我通常都會推薦這個品牌的

This is kind of... the "hardcore" brand.

這邊的是... 是比較〝認真〞版的品牌

And it almost looks like this is not a Japanese brand, but it is.

而且看起來也不像是日本牌子，不過它的確是日本做的

They have regular powder [stick] ones.

它們也是有個滾球在上面

And they're pretty expensive, but this brand DOES work.

雖然價錢很貴，但是這牌子的效果非常的見效

So if you need something stronger and you're in Japan.

所以如果你需要在日本裡找個比較強烈的

So, as you can see here, this one is "Deodorant Cream for Serious Users."

你看，這裡寫著〝除臭劑給非常非常需要的使用者們〞

So I guess this is what us super smelly foreigners have to use

我想這就是適合我們西方人的意思吧

since we have more apocrine sweat glands than Japanese people.

可能我們的大汗腺比日本人還發達吧

But this brand does work. It's just more expensive.

這牌子很好用，但是就是很貴

Of course it's always easier if you bring your own deodorant.

所以最好最簡單的，還是自帶吧

But if you don't have them, you CAN get them here.

只是如果真的需要的時候，你還是可以在日本買到

So you will be fine.

可以解決除臭的問題

So then the other thing that's really common that you'll probably want to use because it's so humid

然後還有一個產品你可能也會有興趣的，因為這裡的濕氣

are these wipes.

就是這些擦紙巾

These are so convenient and you'll want to take these with you.

這些真的非常的方便

You can pretty much just wipe down all of the sweat on your body.

你大概可以用這些來擦掉全身的汗

And of course they have other products as well

也有別的產品

like armpit pads that you can put on your clothes

像腋下墊可以放墊在衣服裡面

in case you sweat a lot and you don't want to have stains coming through.

以防止衣服會出現汗漬

So this is the men's section, and actually have this stone.

這邊是男士專用的，而這個是一個石頭

This one is like a rock that you have to get wet.

這個像個石頭的產品，你必須要先把它弄濕

You run it under water before you can apply it.

可以用水弄濕後來使用

But this works really well.

但是效果非常的好

As you can see they have other products from the same brand as well.

你也可以看到一系列的產品

Deodorant cream, powder...

除臭液劑，粉式的...

And then you can see the price here. These are all almost $8.

看這邊的價錢也差不多是美金8元左右

So they're expensive.

也是非常貴的

And then of course all of the sprays again, more liquids.

這邊還有噴的，還有擦的

And then they have sprays on the bottom.

更多噴式的在下面

They're pretty much the same type of products.

它們大多數都是一樣的

So I hope this helps you guys figure out what you can use in Japan if you come here!

所以我希望這些介紹可以幫助到你們在日本時想買除臭劑時，可以有些大綱

Of course I recommend bringing your own deodorant if you can,

但是我建議自帶除臭劑是最好的

just because it'll last longer, it's probably cheaper, and you're already used to it.

不但可以用久一點，也比較划算，自己常用的也比較喜歡用

But you CAN get good stuff here that will work.

但是在這裡也是可以找到你需要的除臭劑

See you guys next time!

下次再見啦，各位！

Jun, what do you use?

Jun 你用哪一個？

I haven't really used any recently.

最近都沒有再用了

Jun doesn't even use deodorant...

Jun 不用了

Sorry~

抱歉

Oh, sheets? When I sweat I use sheets.

喔，用紙巾？我流汗時就用那個

But that's all, pretty much. I guess.

但是就這樣吧, 我想

You sweat, but you don't smell.

你流汗，但是不會有味道

Should I take it as a compliment?

這句話算是在讚美我是吧？(兩人笑，好閃)

Sorry you have to date a smelly foreigner like me!

真抱歉跟你在一起的人是個會有體味的西方人 (驕蠻口氣？)
