Why do deodorant companies make products that don’t leave white marks, but don’t apply that technology to their entire range?

You already have several sections of this answer spread amongst the replies; but I shall collate to the correct response:
So you have 4 different “deodorants”: gel, stick, liquid roll-on, and spray.
Gel almost never has an anti-perspirant, so is usually free of white streaks.
Stick can be further diveded into antiperspirant and just deodorant. The deodarant is a translucent gel-like stick, with antiperspirant being the white one.
The other 2 are often a mixture of light antiperspirant and deodorant.
I have a skin reaction to all gel, and gel-stick types; and a bad reaction to spray antiperspirant.
All antiperspirants will leave some white streaks from the aluminum salts(which can be mitigated by how much you apply). If you see a movie/tv show/ comercial where someone is applying deodorant, you will see them swipe “up, down, up; sometimes back down for a 4th swipe”; this is way too much. You shouldn’t need more than a single “swipe” per underarm. With proper amounts applied you really shouldn’t get the whote streaks.
